Sun umbrella? [emoji38] We use that for the buns, or a sheet or somethingHas anybody used greenhouse shade netting? Did it work? Is it too dark? Any other cheap ideas?
Freddie (cat) is going to need to be in a catio for a few weeks while we have major work done on the house & I'm looking for cheap ideas to provide some shade for him.
Sounds like a good planI thought of my parasol but it won't be tall enough as the run is 6ft high. [emoji23][emoji23] Plus I might need it myself lol.
Zoobec, that's the kind of stuff I was looking at.
Bunny Buddy, I think the first one I found was 40%. I didn't think of doubling it up though so thanks for the tip.
Thanks all. When I had bunnies, they were close to the house in the shade so it wasn't an issue. We need to site the catio well away from the house because we don't want Freddie to be sat right next to all the banging and drilling going on but the far end of the garden is a bit of a suntrap! I might try some sheets on the roof with some netting on the side.
i would think greenhouse shading would be good - as long as they're not likely to get caught up in it.
i bought some from Wilko. £7 i think, for 10metres. i think it's 2m wide, so there's quite a lot of it!
it's too big for my g/h though & i didn't want to cut it so for the g/h i have some door fly screen from Home Bargins. it's more like house windows nets but black. £2.99 each (it's 2 lengths approx 2m x 0.6m). i think this would be better for the buns.
I love the bunny under the parasol![emoji7][emoji7]

I used to have one of those magnetic door screens..... until one of my dogs ripped it down and tore it to shreds. [emoji23][emoji23] It just attaches with Velcro but our doorframe was out of square so it took a bit of faffing to line it all up so it would snap shut after we'd gone through it.
I'll have a look in Wilko (thanks Mike!) as that sounds like an even cheaper option than eBay. I'm hoping, if we drape it outside, the cat won't pull it through the mesh while he's inside. [emoji23] We might need to roll it up out of the way when he's got the free run of the garden though in case he tries to climb it.
that was Radish.

:O mikek, where has THAT been all my life! My Mum got me a folding screen door but it wouldn't fit due to how my door is laid out, but THIS should be perfect How does it fix, velcro?
