I've been thinking what I could do about my rabbit room lately because I feel bad that the bunners have to run around on pretty solid ground and minimal traction. I have a few cotton throw rugs but they're pretty small and I bought them because they were fairly cheap and I could wash them. Penny was peeing like a monster for a while so I needed to be able to clean them. The problem is drying these rugs -- takes like 2 days in the sun or the dryer would be running for hours before it's 100% dry.
I stumbled across yoga mats for $6.99 today and I bought a green one for the buns. It's easily cleaned with a wet cloth and I can roll it away if necessary. I think I really like this! It's soft and just plushy enough to provide traction under their feet. The only thing I am worried about if whether or not Kirby will take to munching on the mat one day. I thought I'd share the idea if anyone had a hallway and wanted to get something for their bun to run down. I like it better than a carpet runner simply because I am not really a fan of cleaning carpet.
If Kirby doesn't eat the mat, I'll get another one and put it in their pen so they can use it at night (I close their pen at night so they can only access the left side of the room).
I also have a hallway that connects the rabbit room to the living room. The path is covered with foam children's play mats. It's all fine and dandy but Kirby does chew on the little foam "teeth" that grips one mat to the next and it's a pain to take apart and put back together when I need to vacuum and mop under there. I might get a couple suitable colors (not neon green
) to replace the mats if this works out
