Small orange giraffe
Warren Scout
Hi all,
hopefully going on a weeks hol in a few weeks - nowt fancy just down the south coast. The last time we went on hols was over 2 years ago, and I didn't have bunnies then, just the two cats. I hired a pet sitter who popped in twice a day to feed and water them.
I have a few concerns:
1) I can't afford a petsitter this time
2) All our friends live 80 or so miles away
3) Our bunnies live free-range, and are only ever shut in the kitchen at night, consequently they make a right mess, hay and poo's everywhere. They are both litter trained, but they just poo everywhere, which is not too bad, except when they do the squashy poo's that they eat, they squash it right into the lino and I have to scrape it off, sweep and then mop the floor. Which takes me about 15 minutes each morning.
So I don't know if its too much to ask the neighbours to pop in, or if thats enough? Feel a bit mean asking them to clean the litter trays, kitchen and stuff. We are friendly with them, but we hardly see each other - working households and stuff.
I do have an outside hutch with a detachable run, but I got that when I only had one bunny and don't think its really big enough for both of them? (Sage house btw). Also as they don't live outside just a bit worried as they'd not be used to it?
What do you think to my dimela?
