bunnies on wet grass question

susie bun said:

Poor Spenser didn't get out at all yesterday, and today not for very long. The grass was so soggy I was worried about him (a) eating it and (b) getting a chill. Is this another case of me exhibiting the symptoms of an over-anxious first-time bunny mummy? At least he got three new toys to play with back in the hutch.

My boys all enjoy sitting in their gardens when it rains.

If the run is on the grass could you put a tarpaulin over the top? An then have maybe a pet carrier inside for if he wants to sit somewhere dry?

I used to never let Ben and Lolsie out in the rain. Turns out they love it and it does them no harm. So long as he can dry out properly and not sit damp in his hutch. My two also enjoyed the snow! Is there somewhere he can go to shelter if he doesnt like it?

He doesn't like the rain, but our grass can take an awful long while to dry out. The problem with the hutch is that he often chooses to sit in the draughtiest part of it. :roll::roll: I have recently added a little carpet mat to this area, which he seems to like. He doesn't like getting wet paws, although this didn't stop him putting both of his front paws in his water bowl while eating his pellets last night. Silly boy. :roll::roll:

My mum used to go out and use an old towel to dry off the grass before the buns went out :lol::lol::lol:
