I think it's fantastic!
I have to say that I am holding you fully responsible for me having spent most of the afternoon scanning ebay and various websites looking at various kennel combinations.
:lol:
I do like this style of housing - and I have just happened to measure up the patio (which is far too posh a word for the area of ancient paving slabs in the area outside our back door.....) and guess what?! It's big enough for a 12 x 4ft or a 10 x 4ft kennel combination. Though it will mean removing the small garden we have on there it wouldn't be too much of a problem given the size of the rest of our garden.
Can I just ask - do you think the 4 x 4ft shed-type living area would be too small on a permanent basis if I had a 8 x 4ft run area? I too would like to do free range in the garden when am at home but would want to be happy with it in general and obviously would want it to be big enough for rescues to be happy with.
I've found a combination (that's a lot more expensive though!) that does a 6ft deep version (so the living area would be 6 x 4ft) but I think we'd struggle to fit that on the patio without it dominating everything a bit too much as it would probably then block out the light from the dining room window and just be too big in general. I guess otherwise I could ask if one of the companies that make them could do a 6ft shed with a 6ft run area....
Sorry for all the questions and all the waffle! I don't have rabbits yet but love planning ahead. I would definitely like to have rabbits still in the future and have been thinking about it more and more just lately.
