Most rabbits are very clean animals, in a hutch or pen of adequate size they use one area as a lattrine. That spot needs cleaning at least once a week - use something absorbent to stop the urine seeping away into the rest of the hutch - newspaper or wood shavings for instance. Stale or soiled bedding can then be removed and replaced as needed. Bedding will also be nibbled and reduced to unappetising matchsticks that can be removed and replaced as needed. A complete clean, if the hutch is big enough, needs doing perhaps once per month. Small hutches will need a complete clean weekly. For breeds to the size of Dutch, or a little bigger, a good-sized hutch would be 8 square feet.

What might you put a rabbit in?
If you have a big open space or back yard you should purchase a rabbit hutch or if you wish to keep your rabbit indoors you should purchase a rabbit cage. Whatever you do, make sure you keep the rabbit safe! Rabbits need exercise daily, but there are many dangers to them both inside and outside. It's up to the rabbit owner to control the rabbit's environment. For details, see the related questions below -- they have lots of information and helpful links.
How far away can a rabbit smell?
Well it really depends mostly on how much you care for it/them. The main source of smell is in the hutch or cage, that is why you should clean out your guinea pigs a minimum of three times a week. Obviously all animals can smell whilst doing the toilet but my two male guinea pigs don't give off many bad smells. Hope this helped a bit

How many times a week are you supposed to clean a rabbit cage?
There's more than one routine people follow to keep their rabbit's cage clean. The important thing is to keep the rabbit safe, healthy, and comfortable. Consider these principles: Urine starts to grow ammonia, which is unhealthy and smelly for rabbits and humans, so the litter should be scooped every day. Old hay sitting around becomes dusty and -- if gets wet -- mouldy, both of which are unhealthy for your rabbit, so the hay should be replaced at least once a day. Fur can build up on bedding and in the hay and the rabbit will end up eating some of it, which can be very dangerous. (Rabbits can't vomit fur balls like cats.) Wash or vacuum fabrics, and sweep out fur from the cage, as much as needed -- more when the rabbit is moulting. Water and food should be replaced/replenished twice daily, and the dishes washed once daily -- otherwise, bacteria will grow which can make your rabbit (and you) sick. Aside from that, the entire cage or rabbit area should be kept relatively clean. One routine is to limit daily cleaning and do one big clean every month or so. Other people prefer to do a big more each day and limit big cleans to once or twice a year. Depending on the climate and rabbit's housing, fly strike may be a threat -- if so, you'll need to keep the rabbit's environment extra clean and as dry as possible. You'll also want to inspect the rabbit daily for signs of infestation. It depends on the rabbit but you should try to change it once a fortnight. and fluff the hay if it goes flat. it helps them sleep because it helps make it fluffy!
