1: How would you like it if you wallowed in your  dirt and 'yellow' water? Wouldn't you feel uncomfortable and cranky?

2: depression

3: If you don't, your pet can eat the waste and gain the disease called cocicdia. (I had a bunny and dog that possessed this contagious parasite.) It is when another organism eats its own 'dirt' and or someone else's.

Also, other diseases like 'Giardia, roundworms, hookworms, Salmonella, and E.coli,' can be transmitted by feces..

4: Fly. Prohibition. 

If you wait till the last minute, a malicious odor will occur. I did this, and when I finally looked in the cage. There was flies and other nasty insects in the waste. YUCK! So unpleasant. 

5: Be responsible. It is like you flushing the toilet when you finish your waste.
