Exterior Rabbit Hutches- Tips To Look At When Selecting Or Building One For Your Furry Pet Bunny  For approximately five million families, rabbits are the pet friend. Their beauty goes right off the meter and both children and adults are drawn to them. But even though some people love their furred animal it is simply not feasible for them to live in the home. It may be due to the odor, the animal waste or more commonly, their tendency to munch. For these reasons outdoor rabbit hutches are a common way to humanely house your rabbit. When picking out the correct one there are many things to look at. Since it is outdoors it needs a good, sturdy roof with shingles or metal roofing to disallow water. While many believe the outside construction should be pressure cured wood so as to give the cage a long lifespan, you have to remember chemicals are used to impregnate the wood to make it have this long life. Using inferior things, however, will give you a shelter that will need frequent repairs and could, inevitably, breakdown onto your pet. A better option might be to consider naturally resistant woods. Be certain that the wood is not exposed too much to the rabbit because they will chew on it. This is not only bad for the protection of the structure but the components used in the treatment of the wood is not good for them. If you do use pressure treated lumber you may need to consider limiting its use to legs and braces which will basically come in contact with the floor and rabbit manure and urine. Whether buying outdoor rabbit hutches or building one you should keep some things in mind for your layout. Rabbits need plenty of fresh air so make sure that at least two sides of the structure are wire mesh to give proper air flow. On the other hand, they also cannot withstand the heat very well so ensure that you have a shaded portion of the cage for them to retreat to. Rabbits can tolerate cold fairly well provided they have ample shelter. The nesting area have to be well insulated with plenty of soft, nesting material for them to get cozy in. Depending on the degree of your cold temperatures, you may also want to get a hot water bottle or some other heating system to place under their nest area. Outdoor rabbit hutches should also have several escape places for them to move away in case a predator comes around. This allows them to feel secure and helps to calm them, which is important since a bunny can specifically die from fear even when they are safe. It would be better to ensure your outdoor rabbit cages are in some kind of enclosure that minimizes visits from would-be predators and a neighbor's dog.
