Indoor Hutches

[Alyssaur]

What do you guys think of using a hutch indoors?

I love the way some outdoor hutches look, but I'm not so sure it would be a good environment for an indoor bunny. (They seem kind of claustrophobic and I'm concerned about the air circulation)

As I said in my intro post, the bun is only going to be caged at bedtime and when hubby and I aren't home, but the cage should still be comfortable for the fuzzy.

The look isn't at all important anyway. I was just wondering if it was acceptable to use one indoors.


These are my favorites:

37.8" L x 30.7" W x 47.2" H

60" L x 20.5" W x 22" H

Medium (36" L x 24" W x 34.5" H
Large (46.5" L x 24" W x 34.5" H


If they're not okay as is, I could modify one or design my own.

By the way, this will be for a dwarf Teddy Widder or a Lionhead rabbit.

Those seem a bit small.
This is my hutch and I LOVE IT. Leia's lived in this hutch since around Feb 2009 she has chewed it some but its still holding up quite well. I have mats that i put in there now for traction. I'm thinking of replacing the grid flooring on the bottom but for now I have it covered with tiles.

Leia is a mini rex and she is only in her cage when i'm gone or alseep.

Ooo I like that one. I wonder how much it would cost to duplicate that and make it myself.
