Hey guys our Australia and NZ section hasn't been doing much since the 5th of Sep!!! Anyway summber is around the corner and just thought could I have some ideas on how to keep charlie(my rabbit cool)

this is his first summer

if you were wondering

pop some bricks in the freezer, and then put in his cage when they're nice and cold. Or freeze water bottles of water, and wrap in cloth or something...frozen cranberries instead of dried as a treat, frozen banana might work, too, but I've never tried that. If he's an outdoor rabbit, make sure he has plenty of good shade, and on really hot days consider bringing him inside. If you have a small fan, you could put it on an extension cord, and have it facing his cage.

I suppose you could also try refrigerating his hay and pellets for say, ten minutes? lol. Just so he has cool food. Maybe that's overkill, I don't know; how hot does it get where you are?

Even putting some tiles in the freezer for a bit...easier to lay on...you can pick up seconds cheap...and yeah frozen water bottles are good as well..

I'm not looking forward to the heat that is ahead of us!

Me neither; I dislike heat. Give me winter any day!

Tiles are a good idea too, I have some around somewhere...just have to dig for them.

I Live in sydney

what is Australia's equivilant to timothy hay? is Timothy just the brand?

Misschief, timothy is a species of grass that commonly grows in the US and Canada, I think most other Aussie bunny owners use oat hay or grass (meadow) hay.
