Rabbit shelter for resting in

[Hattie]

Hi,

We've got our (mostly free-range) house rabbit living in a very large dog crate and he has been using an upside down cardboard box with a door cut in the front and back (hope that makes sense!) but he's started chewing it a bit so we're looking to replace it with something a bit sturdier. I've done some looking around online but nothing seems quite right, it needs to be big enough that he can flop on his side with his legs streched out as it's where he likes to sleep during the day

Just wondered if anyone has seen anything like this or knows of anywhere that might do one.

Thanks for any help!!

How about a hard dog bed, you can either have it right way up or turn it upside down so he can hide underneath using the dip as a doorway or spread out on top? I've used this before and it's funny to watch them squeeze underneath and sometimes move it about carrying it like a tortoise shell

You could use a cat carrier without the door on. It can be a bed to sleep in and a platform to jump on.

I use plastic cat snugs / kennels (from ebay) in some of mine. There is plenty of room in them, but the roof is curved so they can't rest on top of it.

That's the one think I absolutely love about Zooplus, the customer photos! Even though I've never bought anything from there I always go on there and have a look as you can tell how big it is, how good it looks etc not just the standard photo :thumb:

The cardboard box thing is exactly what Olly and Honey have had for the past year, but recently they started eating it too... So we made something exactly the same but out of plywood, and they love it! I put carpet tiles on top and they love sitting on top of it now aswell :wave:

Thanks for all your help I'd really love to get him one of the ones made by the person on here that look like a little castle, think I'd better get saving!!
