Poppy has been with us for almost 2 weeks and I am looking at sorting out her enclosure and putting in a permanent hutch/wendy house. We have been doing some saving and can just about stretch to £150 including insulation etc. I have been looking out for second hand summerhouses on ebay and gumtree but as yet...nothing is nearby or any good
I have enough space in her enclosure for a 6 ft x 3 ft cage even double storey one, but because of a big tree in the middle of her run (and its beautiful so chopping it down is not an option:roll I cannot fit a 6 x 4 wendy house in. A 4 x 4ft wendy house will fit in the corner though. Although I am not particularly DIY minded I do think I could make two storey levels in it and make it interesting for her. Potentially she would have 8 ft of floor space and another 4 ft + on a second level.
Which one do you think is best and do you have any suggestions for me? Cost is a factor but I also want to get her a friend before the winter so really do need it to be suitable for two bunnies.
This is Poppys run (with big tree in the middle:roll I could fit the cage along the back near the shed or summerhouse in the right hand corner.

I had a look in this one today and thought that my son (age 9:shock and I should be able to put it together by ourselves:shock:

My son likes this one also as he thinks we should be able to build it by ourselves a bit easier But is it big enough for two bunnies?:?
I would really appreciate your help and feedback. My car is on its last legs (or wheels! lol) so travelling far really isnt viable. Thanks in advance:wave:
