I passed a junkshop yesterday and noticed a hutch outside for sale so I stopped to have a look - I'd like a guineapig hutch for the odd rescue and this looked a reasonable size.
Well, it was about 4 ft long, not very tall, ok for guinea pigs. The wire was bent in but I could replace that, so I looked inside :shock: the poor previous occupants shavings, poo etc was all still piled up. To be honest it really upset me that the rabbit had obviously died/be killed by fox (due to the wire I thought poss) and the owners/junkshop owner couldn't be bothered to even remove it's poo. And there was a lot of it..... poor bun obviously hadn't been cleaned out on a regular basis, you can just imagine what the other care was like.
I walked away in tears
