Perfect to keep your rabbits, guinea pigs and small pets safe and sound, as well as adding a lovely piece of architecture to your garden.
This spacious little home, with its arched timber design, is made here in Dorset from curved joinery-quality Swedish redwood timber. The timber is Eco-pressure treated to ensure long life outdoors and the strong weldmesh is galvanised, then green plastic coated for longevity.
This all-in-one Rabbit House & Run combination makes very efficient use of space whilst looking absolutely stunning in your garden.
The Salisbury Rabbit House comes with a vertical sliding rabbit door, operated on a drawstring, onto an outside 'Sun Deck'. We have added a raised edge to the sun deck (we call it a bunny barrier) to prevent those 'I wish I'd brought a parachute' moments.
The Sun Deck is perfect for those lazy, hazy days of summer. From the Sun Deck, there is a long offset ramp (16cm wide) with bunny barriers gives them access to the nice green grass and hence to lots of exercise.
Inside the Rabbit House, the floor is hard-wearing, phenolic-coated, brown resin board. It is washable and 'super-easy' to keep clean.
The sleeping quarters inside are cosy with a removable, high-sided sleeping tray (57cm x 35cm x 13cm H) that has a tall plywood wall to prevent draughts. Also included is a wooden meshed frame to hang the water bottle, a hayrack and feed pot on for overnight refreshments.
The rabbit run area is a total of 3.5 sq m including the sheltered area underneath the house. With an internal height of approx. 122cm it is perfect for young people to sit inside and play with their beloved pets. It provides lots of space for bunnies who like to stand on their hindquarters at times.
The green mesh tough galvanised weldmesh, robust enough to deter the most determined predators. We also offer a No-Dig Skirt option to surround the outside of the run to prevent digging predators.
We do not advise adding a meshed floor to the inner run area unless you plan to cover it with a layer of woodchip or similar soft flooring. Unlike cats and dogs, rabbits don't have padded paws and could easily injure their feet when permanently walking on the metal mesh.
The access door at the front of the run, opens outwards. It is hinged left, has a pad-lockable bolt and an internal turn button to keep the door closed whilst inside.
