[0002] Rabbits are widely bred because of good economic value, and when large-scale breeding, in order to facilitate management, the cage raising mode is usually used to feed, and the cage raising mode needs to clean the excrement of rabbit cage every day, which is time-consuming and laborious, but if not cleaned in time, the smell emitted by the excrement accumulated on the ground also affects the environment for rabbits to live in, which is not conducive to the normal growth of rabbits.

[0003] A rabbit cage with publication number CN210929060U is disclosed, and the application date is September 5, 2019. The patent technology. The cage is divided into multiple single cages by the grid partition and the sewage collection basin in the sewage discharge structure, which is used for more rabbits to live in. At the same time, the flushing structure can flush the single cage from the top down, and the excrement discharged by the rabbit is sequentially discharged into the collection box from the grid partition, the sewage collection basin and the sewage pipeline.
