As you will see from my post in rainbow bridge, mr floppy went to the bridge, we think the fox paid us a visit and chewed the door, he didn't get thro but we think Mr Floppy died of shock he'd never been ill never been to vets other than the usual jabs, he was in a brick shed in a hutch with a big scotch blanket over and insultation on the top of the hutch, the door wasn't flimsy by any means.
The fox must of been chewing there a while, it was when the weather had been really bad and frozen for a while, the female was howling 3 weeks ago for a mate in early hours, then i started seeing them both wandering on the street at 730ish, i'm not sure why the fox gave up unless they was disturbed, we have a 4ft wall all the way round the garden, Mr Floppy was free range when we were in.
I know of 2 rabbits on the street that are in hutches outside with no cover over them, very open, free for all to see, they are in sheltered area next to the house wall, to be honest i can't remember the last time i saw them out of the hutch
I'm not ready for another rabbit as yet but would love to get another in the future, but i would like to make sure I have done my absolute best to make him/her safe. I suppose my question is could i have done anything different? and why has floppy gone when he was in a secure place and the other 2 are ok when they are so open to foxes?
