Wise Old Thumper
I agree with the guilty bit, but I have to remember that I'm doing better than where Lopsy was before: it might still be a planning and execution thing, but it's better than the small if well-meant space before!Threads like these just makes me feel depressed and guilty
Lopsy too: free range for him means FIND FOOD first and shelter will come along at some point, although personally I think buzzards, foxes or traffic would happen first :roll:they are very lively, manic bunnies, very rabbity rabbits and not interested in humans unless you have food :lol:
As for hutches, I like them but they have to be permanently open into a run (or just open to the outside world) somehow: that's how I've always kept rabbits and it seems weird to contemplate any other way! I think they make a nice snuggly hidey-hole. But then I would also not want to include them when calculating floorspace if they were under 2'x2' in the shortest dimensions (like Lopsy's original one is)
I would love to have Lopsy freerange in the garden but I can't be out there 24/7 with him and it seems crueller to me to let him out for an hour or whatever a day and then restrict him for the rest of the time: what you don't know can't hurt you (and I know that's not really true ;P)? Best for us is outside where he can get grass and sunshine and hear the birds and shout at the ducks and play in the rain, but in a safe environment.
I'm not a true bun-fanatic: I don't live for the bunbuns, but now I've got this poor thing I think I should give him the best life I can manage!
