Do you think I should house my rabbits outside if I can't have them inside?
The shelters around me do not adopt out to outdoor homes or people who will house them in garages.The best pair is a neutered male and spayed female. Most shelters have an abundance of really sweet bonded pairs since they are less likely to be placed than single buns.
The catch 22 is most rescues do not adopt to people unless the rabbits will be kept indoors (at least from what I have seen).
She is on board, if the rabbit is outside.In all honesty here how do you plan on caring for a rabbit if your mom is not 100 percent on board? Vet bills for a sick rabbit can be in the thousands. Who will pay for your bunnies if they get sick?
Now is the weather hot or cold in your area? What do you do when that happens?I have my bunnies outside, and if you can't have them inside (like me) then have them outside, lol My bunnies are friendly, loving, cuddly bunnies, i don't think it would change a bunnies behaviour or friendliness if they lived inside or out, as long as you don't mind playing, stroking, talking, to them outside in all kinds of weather!
I sit outside in my bunnies run for hours just watching them, they can still jump up and sleep on my lap and do things that bunnies would do if they were inside
Your bunnies can still greet you after work/school just the same as if they were inside, its cute because they start to know the sound of your car and when they hear it they come out.
I can provide time for a rabbit, I am outside most of the day.Now is the weather hot or cold in your area? What do you do when that happens?
I have a carrier for dogs that I could use when there are extreme temps.
^^^the UK doesn't have the extreme temp differences you may be concerned about.
However, it's not just the weather to be concerned about. Think about it in terms of how much time you could commit to being outside. Do you think you could provide that for a bun?
During school will you get up early enough every morning to feed and spend time with bunny?
Then after school are you in activities? Sports? Clubs? Etc.....
Then you have homework. Dinner. Friends. And most obvious, you will have bedtime for school the next day....
Do you see bunny fitting into that? Getting outdoors everyday for bunny?
