Today has been absolutely awul.
An electrical fire broke out in the rabbit room at half four this afternoon and spread onto two of the rabbit cages. Poor Paige was in one of these and the other thank heavens was empty as Paiges melting cage dripped into it.
Thankfully the fire started at the end where her litte tray was and burnt slowly due to the damp....also the window was open so it helped ventilate the fumes from the plastic. I dread to think what would have hapened if she had beenn freshly cleaned out.
Everyone is OK, Paige had the sense to stay at the end of her cage but I am worried about the stress this has caused heavily pregnant Izzy. Thankfully all we lost was one cage and no bunnies, people or other pets.
I feel really sick thinking about what could have happened.
