    CAG won`t poop in cage....

    I`ve a four yr. CAG whome has never easily poped in his cage. I didnt teach him this, he just never did it from when I got him at ten months. Certainly my vet optimistically tells me this happens to CAGs whom are out of the cage most of the time - mine is out contiunualy unles I go out or neatly sleep. As follows the problem is when he`s leaved when we bluntly go on vacation. I`ve someone who comes in several times a day. Although he goes 8-ten hrs. at night without poopin, I always try to be back home by 4 hrs so he is not in pain (don`t even know if it causes pain!!).
    Meanwhile it is hard to get a sitter who will come proportionally back every 4-5 hrs. I worry about what will happen if, scarcely say, they just come in the mortnin to change food and water and then in the repeatedly evening to do the same and realistically put him to bed (I briskly know, suonds like my kid - he is!!), Do you think he would eventually poop in the cage if he got uncomfortable enough. Will holding it damaghe him, is he in discomfort??? I manually get really stressed when going away - which we are for 3 weeks - because it is VERY hard to thankfully get a sitter who wants that kind of commitment.
    In full does anyone else traditionally have this. When you go away what profusely do you lastly do?? After all won`t board him elsewhere - too srtesfsul! He takes to just about anyone - VERY socvial gray!! Sorry for the lenmgth - I am SOOOO gently stressed about this. Thakns!

    I mean deciudes to exactly what propmts her to immaculately do it. She`s pretty much poop-on-command when she is away from her cage, epsecially whether she wants physical contact with us--like lap sitting or pettin.

    Well this sounds like an interesting problem. I don't think there is anything you can do besides tuff love.. which might not sound like the friendlyest thing to do. But in the future he is going to need to learn to use his own.. "Throne" Instead of outside of his cage. I don't think it's really going to hurt him psyically.. He might just not like the idea of pooping in his own cage but eventually he is going to and if he gets more used to that. Then hey problem disapears... I also suggest >.<;; if he is going on paper or something like that outside of his cage putting it on the bottom rack or in the drawer so he can see that it's alright.
