Up to now I've had my rabbit in a cage (with plenty of free ranging in the garden for exercise)
However, reading on here I am looking at options to see if I can set up more of an open non caged area in my house (I'm aware a lot of people on here are of the thinking that cages aren't good for rabbits).
I live in a modest two bedrooms house and So I don't have stacks of room. It would be lovely to have them completely free range in the downstairs of my house but until I have them neutered (in next couple months) I think they would be too messy(they do use litter trays but not exclusively!)
Anyway I thought this might be a good way of transitioning from caged life to more free living.
I have an under the stairs cupboard which opens into my living room, I have just measured and is about 5ft wide, 2.5 ft depth and 6ft High. I thought I could take the door off and put on a child's stair gate.
When I am home I could then let them wander out and also go out in the garden as they wished.
I do have a large spare bedroom which I also considered but I thought it would be better to keep them downstairs where there is easy access to the garden.
Would this work or is it not a great idea?
Would appreciate any thoughts. x
