Well Teddy has arrived 
However the hutch is even worse than it looked before, apparently he broke out of it last night and ate all the plants in the garden. Well our garden isn't escape proofed so David's spent half an hour adding bolts and I've wedged a run against the bottom of it.
The size of the hutch, get this one :shock: It's 5 and a half foot long and double layered BUT each layer is 15 inch tall and 17 inch deep. And he is a big rabbit, and he's spent two and a half years in it (he did get a lot of free range time in the garden apparently, thank goodness) It's so inadequate for a rabbit of his size, it's no wonder he has a mucky bum, he can't possible groom himself or eat his poops in that hutch. I have a Happy Hutch 6ft/run combi being despatched today but he'll have to stay in his old hutch until I've got some slabs down and the hutch/run together. Do you think that'll be ok? He's been in it for so long that I'm thinking another few days can't hurt :?
Then I asked her to bring his food - I went to fill up the bowl and a big lump of mouldy food fell out - really really green and mouldy. Luckily he's been on a mix and that's what Pippa and MJ eat so he's got some fresh food, hay and a spring green leaf and I've settled him into bed
I still feel so guilty about leaving him in his hutch, but there's nothing I can do until the new one arrives
But at least he's here, his myxi vacc is booked for Friday and then he's off to Bunnyhops to see Aunty Kay for some speed dating :lol:
