Accommodation... educating prospective owners

Would anyone be willing to allow me to use their photos of their indoor & outdoor setups for their buns please?
I am revising the current literature (for a rescue) that is sent out to prospective owners prior to adoption.
I am aiming at creating an informative guide to creating the right environment for both indoor & outdoor buns, as sadly, there have been several homechecks recently, where good advice has been ignored :cry:

There have been some wonderful examples here on RU & I would be grateful if anyone is willing to share them :)
 
You are welcome to mine if they are what you are looking for.:D

Thank you Maizy :D..... exactly what I am looking for (I remembered seeing your pictures, but couldn't find them :oops:) Could I be cheeky & ask the size, where you purchased, cost etc? If you'd rather pm me with details that would be great :D
 
You are welcome to any of my piccies :D I have dog kennel runs, playhouses, aviary and hutches. PM if you would like any or search under my name :)

Yep no problem.:D The sheds are converted cycle sheds. We bought on line so got a small reduction by purchasing that way ( Think we paid £179 each ) from Walton Garden buildings. They are just short of 7ft wide x 3ft deep and 5ft 10 high. Just been out and measured and they've made up a bit bigger than the dimensions shown on the invoice. We put the floor in quite high so the buns in the bottom hutch get good head room and I have a rex cross in there who can easily stand up on her hind legs and have good old nose at everything :lol: The height on the upper hutch goes right up to the apex, again loads of standing room.:D
 
Not sure if you've got any indoor examples yet, or if you want any! :lol:

But this is Bobbin and Roo's indoor setup:

I love your converted cycle sheds! Do you leave the doors open or do you close them at night?
 
You are welcome to use my piccies of my garage/outdoor set-up, something different and an option they may not have thought of? It is great for letting the bunsters have a good run around during winter too.

Great idea :D
What did you use for the access to the outside? Is it an adapted cat flap?
