I moved them outdoors today, and it feels strange :lol: They seem to be quite liking it, they do have more space outside although the house is quiet without them!
Yes, I think so. There's lots going on even in our industiral estate! Baby robins and wrens hopping through the run, aeroplanes and helicopters, birds in the tree, bicycles and boats along the canal...! If you can't be stimulating them indoors (or, in my case, find them WAAAY overstimulating) then outdoors is a good bet IMO.Other than the people bit outside buns must enjoy more stimulation
can I be nosey & ask why they moved outside?
Main reason is my mum - she is allergic to them (probably the hay rather than the rabbits tbh although she has always insisted it’s the angora fur) and will be here for longer periods over the School summer hols watching my kids. She had a worse than normal reaction a couple of months ago - difficulty breathing etc - when she spent longer at my house.
Also they are wrecking my house :lol: I’m hoping to at least paint my skirting boards while I’ve got the chance!
I am writing this to anyone who put their buns outdoors and find it to be ok. First its does seem like they enjoy it. That is it is different like freedom. But it is more dangerous. One is flystrick. It happend to most outdoor rabbits. Its is very bad and most outdoor rabbits get it. Once they have it very hard to save them if ur lucky. They can get it indoors to, but not as much. Hutch rabbits dont live as long. Rabbits need to be surrounded by love of family and socialization not alone even it may seem happier out side. Animals could scare them and possibly have a heart attack from the scare of sounds or animals around them. Rabbits belong in side not outside, inside. Some people do let their buns for a while. If they do they must do careful checks to be sure no fly strick has occurs. It can easily happen to any animal. Your bunny will live a happy, safer and longer indoors.Main reason is my mum - she is allergic to them (probably the hay rather than the rabbits tbh although she has always insisted it’s the angora fur) and will be here for longer periods over the School summer hols watching my kids.
