have to leave work in ten minutes but am worried to leave!

It looks like it's going to be a hot day today and I'm worried it may be too hot for the rabbits in the hutch. I've put two towel covered frozen bottles in along with a tile we put in the fridge and have also put wet white towels over the outside of the hutch. Will this be okay? If not, what else can I do?

They should be fine Do they have a run?It might be cooler in there where the air can circulate, as long as its in the shade

yup, there's a secure run that I've put a blanket over for shade as well as an extra bowl of water for drinking. (even though Frankie likes to wallow in it like a hippo)

Id do exactly what you have done...loads bowls of water & frozen bottles & a slab of marble/cold tiles...hope they are ok.....not sure what else to suggest...:?

You could wet a sheet or blanket (make sure it doesnt drip though) and hang it over the wire of the run if there is a breeze....this creates a cool breeze through the wet blanket/sheet...but of course once it dries it wont help much except for extra shade..if its reflects the heat and doesnt absorb it.

Everything was fine and I needn't of worried :wave:

We are on holiday in Majorca and it is about 35oC. I cNt stop thinking about how I would keep the rabbits cool living here!! I need to switch off the rabbit half of my brain I think

Oops, wifi is sloooow!
