My bunnies live indoors in an NIC cage (and then free range when I am home), a few weeks back they managed to escape by pushing the mesh panels apart (I normally have a padlock on that part of the cage but didnt that night, they took full advantage!) Anyway, they hadnt caused any damage or harmed themselves so it was ok(ish) and I made sure that from now on the padlock was on and everything was really secure...
Today I have come home to find the have actually managed to collapse part of their cage, and it really must have been through sheer brute force cos even I have trouble removing those panels + they are all binded together with metal wire as well (used to be cable ties but Domino chewed one of those so I replaced them all). They have let themselves out by scrambling through and they HAVE caused damage this time!!! Luckily my boyfriend is away because I dont think he would be happy about the fact they have somehow squeezed under the TV stand (its probably only about an inch and half space, pulled out the power cable and HDMI cable on his brand new PS3 and bitten through it - several times luckily it wasnt plugged in as the PS3 always gets unplugged when not in use. Not only that they have (I say they - I know this part will have been Domino as I caught him doing it the other day) bitten/chewed the top edge of every single one of my books on the bottom of the book shelf. Then if that wasnt bad enough they have gotten into the crunchie cookies I was saving for tonight, and yep they have eaten 2 whole cookies and nibbled at the others in the pack Luckily they are ok but I am pretty angry right now... Im going to have to find a new power cable & HDMI cable before my other half returns at the weekend and hope he doesnt notice they have been replaced... Im also going to have to spend the rest of my evening figuring out how on earth they managed to do what they did to their cage and also how I am going to stop it. To be honest I may even have to build some kind of wooden structure for them!! As Im only renting though I cant have anything permanent set up thats whyy the NIC cubes were the best option.
Just had to get all this off my chest as I cannot tell my other half for obvious reasons....:roll:
