I'm inspired by all the folks on these forums who have figured out how to let their bunnies free-range safely 24/7. I would love to get to that point. Since our bunny joined our family 2 months ago she's been staying in her cage except for 2 hours each morning and evening when she hangs out with us in the living room.

Can anyone offer advice on how to bunny-proof my kitchen? I'm worried about 2 areas:
