Dog crates

Mazda

Warren Veteran
Hey all.

Im trying to persuade my mum to let Pebble live indoors (does anyone have any tips so mum will let her live in the house?:lol:) and ive been looking on ebay and 42" dog crates. (a 48" wont fit) Ive seen this 42" crate and im not sure about it. I mean its 99p with ten pound postage, is it too cheap? what do you think the quality will be like?

I dont know if it will be happening yet, but i am just looking around. x
 
i dont think they can be sharp hun, they are made for dogs... i have a mat in mine but alvin still lies in the corner that has no cover :roll::lol::lol::lol:

ill take a pic if you like? and when i get rid of the crate im going to keep the tray in the new cage just for Alvin :D

Oh yes please
Thanks :) x
 
the crate i have is the 42" hagen one so i cant say what other ones are like.

the corner isnt sharp i have just run my fingers over it and i cant see how a bunny could get hurt.... bet alvin proves me wrong now :shock:

most is covered with litter trays and a mat

eta - it is quite slippy so thats why most is covered :)
 
thanks :D x
thats great :) x

so a 42" will be big enough for one bun? x

I think haveing her indoors may be cheaper in the long run... cause we wont have to buy woodshavings! :lol: another point to tell mum! :D x

edit: yea i would cover it with mats :D x
 
i think people do use just crates for buns, i added a pen to mine because i wanted Alvin to have as much space as possible when i wasnt there to give him free range and i wanted a 2nd bun too.. i know some people add shelves so they have extra floor space :)
 
aw cool. :)
She would only be init at night & when im at school (thats if it happens) I would let her have the run of my room once ive blocked of the wires when we are home, as she is litter trained :)

I just hope mum lets her come inside, cause with her being outside even though i spend alot of time out there with her i dont feel its enough and if she got ill or whatever and i didnt notice. Do you know what i mean? x

I don't want to hijack the thread, But how did you get Pebble litter trained?
I want to litter train my two but am unsure of how to do it!

Thanks, will put their litter tray in the corner where they currently go to the toilet. Do you just put hay in her litter tray or everywhere in her hutch? xx

Thank you, think i will do the same. Do you think they will be okay sleeping on a blanket??
