So as the summer months are coming (she says hopefully) I went out and bought a new run for my rabbits. I decided on a wooden frame design from pets at home, as it looks nice and wasn't too expensive (£40 when I got it)
It's called the 'Rose' by pets at home, comes as a flat pack and (for my dad) was fairly easy to put together! (I cannot use a power drill to save my life as you can see from the picture below)
However, once it was up and together, it looks pretty good, sturdy, and tall enough for my large lionheads.
Good points-
- The lid of the run is sturdy enough that a rabbit would definitely not push it open, and has 2 clips to hold it down
- The mesh is a good quality, thick metal, so it should last
- on two sides there are mesh panels you can remove, so you can atatch it to a hutch, or to another run (see below picture for what I did and ignore the mess!)
Bad points-
- Only half the lid actually opens, so its a bit of a struggle to get smaller ones out of the corner of the run (my guineas are particularly good at this!)
- One of the pieces of wood has actually snapped on the bottom of one of the panels, and because i've lost my receipt, I'm going to have to fix this some how :(
Overall, I like the design ideas, but the actual run is poor quality
