So - DD is 8 very soon and has decided that she NEEDS a bunny!
I have been googling away and got myself in a bit of a pickle! So I need sensible bunny owners to sort me out please!
Firstly - can they live outside all year? I am loathe to have an indoor bunny as we have two elderly cats and I cold do without more mess!
Secondly - we are out all day and I was thinking of getting one of those combo hutch/run things so they/it could run about in the run at will during the day - is this a good idea ? We live in t'country near woods so foxes etc likely - but have never seen one in day time.
Thirdly - one bunny or two ?
and finally - I was thinking that bunny could come in for a play in the house in the evenings - when cats out - but I keep feeling it would be mean to put t to bed outside in winter - should I maybe buy an small indor cage for it to sleep in inside in winter ?
God life is too complicated !
Have found a hutch place on ebay that looks pretty good - has anyone got any recommendations of good places to buy hutches/runs etc - and what about the bunny themselvces? Someone said to avoid pet shops as they are mass bred and local breeders better?
Thanks so much for any advice!
