Hello :wave:
I've not posted in a while, but I'd really love some opinions, please!
So, whilst visiting our local petshop I've noticed that there is a bunny in there that is for adoption (not for sale). She's a small-medium bun. She always bounces over to see me and seems so so lovely I think my mum may finally be thinking about letting me adopt her she's been in there a few weeks and I think she keeps getting overlooked by all the cute baby bunnies.
I'd only be able to keep her outside, and she would have a much more permanent, solid home next spring, so I am looking for something temporary, safe, and big enough for her over winter.
So, I have quite a few questions.
1. Would this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Dog-Kenne..._Pet_Supplies_Dogs&hash=item1c2e56cf6d&_uhb=1
Plus a 6 x 4 run be enough space? I believe it would be 56sqft in total?
2. Do I get her a mate? I don't believe she is spade (but will make sure).
Could an unspade female be paired with a neutered male? Or would it be best for me to wait as they would have to be separated when she is spade? (I'd just worry about her being cold during winter)
If she is spade should I get a mate for her straight away, or would 56ft just not be enough space? (baring in mind this is temporary and in spring they will have 100sqft of space)
3. If I don't get her a mate, what sort of things would I need to ensure she is warm over winter? She's been in the shop for a few weeks so doesn't have a winter coat.
Thank you very much, any other advice would be wonderful!
