My rabbit won't pee or eat after moving to a new cage. What to do?

Question

The old cage it's been using is too small for it already,so I move it into a new one yesterday evening.After it poop and pee twice in the new cage,it won't pee anymore even though it's still pooping like usual.Julius did not eat as much as compared to when it's in the old cage.It do not have a litter box because it's still refused to use that,so it normally just per and poop in the cage.When in the new cage,it throw things around.What should I do?

It will take time for Julius to acclimate to his new cage. Provide plenty or toys and places for him to lay. Always have timothy hay or similar grasses available for him to eat. This should be what he eats most of the time. Rabbits will readily use a box if provided. Place a litterbox in the cage for him. Pick up droppings and place them in the box. For urine, use a tissue to soak it up then bury it in the litterbox. Be patient and be consistent.
