New house for our little girls

Thank you all for the kind comments ❤️

We've gone ahead and put them in a couple of days ago, following the checkup (vet says they're looking great!). They immediately started to dig in the dirt, and I've woken up to a couple of very dirty bunnies this morning! I don't think I ever really understood construction until now. They have a plan, and it's a very serious plan, and I have no idea what it is 🤣. My morning routine now includes putting the litter box back from wherever it is they've dragged it off to now and filling in their holes (which they do not appreciate, let me tell ya!). They are also weirdly still obsessed with their bucket, but whatever makes them happy right? 🤷‍♀️

I'm thinking of adding in a chair, and some sort of dedicated rabbit climb-on-top-of-and-destroy thing, but I'm going to wait a little while just in case for the stitches (I know they said ten days, but better safe than sorry!).

@Omi, I didn't think about the dirt issue! They aren't very good at staying in the litter box, so now I'm sifting poo every morning like some weird miner 🤣. We did have a bit of a thunderstorm, and the dirt held well but of course the bunnies got muddy! I'm considering the plastic sheets William told me about, but they had such fun in the snow this winter I'm wondering if I should hold off? As for weeds, no green thing is safe with these two around!

@William, we had a similar one for our chickens, but on a bigger scale! Only, without the tiles because chickens dig but not that much 😆

Brilliant that the vet was impressed with their recovery.

Make sure that any plant which appears is safe for bunnies to nibble.

I think you should just wait a little while and see how it all works out with no cover.
 
The bunnies look like they approve of their new home. It is nice that they are doing so well after their spay. They look very healthy.
Well done.
 
So far it's still a dream world for them, although not for me because they've forgotton how to use a litter box (or maybe I don't have it in the right place?) and they were chewing the wood at first. But I've put up a ton more chews, and they've stopped chewing for the time being! Also, now that they've been cleared to jump and be rabbit ninjas again, I've got a cat tree for them to climb on and a tunnel, which I think they'll like

Ohhh can I ask about the cat tree please, I want something for Kanga to be "up" on outside but dont know quite what to get / make please?
 
Ack, sorry C&D I didn't see this when I made my weekly rounds! 😖

I got them a wooden cat tree, but I'm actually going to have to switch to a plastic one. Me, being an idiot, didn't check to see if the wood was weather-proof, and it's not! But I'm going to have to wait for this one because they are a little pricey (130-200 USD).
