So, If I get a new bunny which is highly likely, I am going to have to house the new bun and Rocky outdoors. At the moment Rocky is by himself under our pergola which is fine as it is very well protected from the weather.
If I make a cage and run out in the yard, 2 things worry me. The rain and the cold weather.
Any tips on how I can make the cage waterproof? I have a typical ebay bought dog kennel (huge one) made from fir wood which isn't waterproof so I will probably use some plastic tarps or make something with a proper tin roof to keep the rain off. The kennel is elevated which is good. I also dont know what wood to make the run out of.
My other concern is the cold weather. I don't get snow but temps can drop to around 10 degrees (celcius) or a bit less at night. Any tips on keeping things warm in winter for an outside cage?
Space isn't really an issue as I have a REALLY big yard and hopefully I can bond Rocky with the new bunny and they can eventually live together. if not it's back to the drawing board lol
