Most rabbits would retreat underground in the wild, bar a few scouts possibly where its a LOT cooler. 34 degrees is very very hot and i would be surprised if Whisky isn't feeling it. That said, if she's coping, just keep an eye on her
Ginger doesn't cope with any temperature over 19 degrees, so is very much struggling right now. That said, Biscuit isn't looking too happy either.

she has been sitting in the shad where the shed and the runs are attached. it is still hot there tho 27 degrees outside here today. i really don't know what to do this is my first summer with her x
They do tend to cope very well wiith heat, better than myself I would say. I really worry about them as I am south facing but we've come through many summers now and never had a sick bun. One started shaking some years ago so I got a spray with cold water in it but as soon as the water landed on her she ran away, so it was defeating the object really!

ice pods, curtains closed, all windows open, spraying cool water on their ears, not letting them outside unless it's morning or evening. our garden is sooo hot.
i would put parasols up but they are in the shed and we have lost the key :roll:

Ive dusted off the fan today and have had it on for a bit. It's a bit cooler but Mini's been a bit lethargic, nothing major, just a bit off, so I thought I'd put the fan on and bring some icepods up. They've all ignored the icepods and Mini's got a bit more active.
Smudge has also had a brush cos his fur is so thick right now.

Zilch, my two are happy to lie on the cold slabs in their run. They will get 2 hours in the garden this evening & an ice cold carrot. :thumb:
