Rabbit Runs

One of the most important accessories you can purchase to complement your pet’s rabbit cage is a folding rabbit run. This is especially useful for pet owners whose homes do not have fenced in backyards, or who require a little bit of travel to get to a safe grassy area where their rabbits can run freely. Convenient, versatile, and portable, a rabbit run can be used both indoors and outdoors.

The floor of a rabbit cage can oftentimes be too hard for your rabbit’s soft, sensitive feet. Remember that their natural habitat is usually covered with grass. Simulate the feel of grass by getting a natural grass floor covering for your pet and prevent them from developing sores, more commonly term ‘bumble foot’, which occurs when they are kept inside a cage made or wires. More importantly, since the mat is natural, it is safe for your beloved pets to chew on.

As a pet owner, you must be aware by now how important regular exercise is for your rabbit. Rabbits are naturally inquisitive little animals that must not be confined to a rabbit cage, and when they have a big, wide expanse of grassy area in front of them, they will want to explore. If you want to keep watch over your rabbit, while getting in some exercise yourself, why not consider getting a rabbit harness or leash? Don’t be turned off by the name, though, since these harnesses are not meant to control or oppress you rabbit in any way. These accessories are primarily designed to train your pet to stay close to you especially in unfamiliar surroundings. There are various harness and leash designs out in the market, for example, stretchable and non-stretch, so do your homework and choose one best for both your and your rabbit’s needs. Rabbits have delicate bones, so it is vital that the right-fitting harness be purchased.

Apart from the rabbit cage, a folding rabbit run is the place where a pet rabbit spends the majority of its time. As a place where they can play safely and freely without fear that they will fall prey to a predator, rabbit runs require more than just space. Accessories such as a water bottle need to be installed so your pet can have a quick drink whenever he wants to. Another great accessory is a play tunnel. In lieu of a natural habitat where rabbits can play and explore, a play tunnel is just like a natural burrow, perfect for our long-eared friends. Rabbits require lots of activity, and a play tunnel with small net inserts will provide good ventilation while ensuring your rabbit will never get bored. Apart from an outdoor rabbit run, a play tunnel can also be used indoors, such as in a spacious rabbit cage.

Last but not least, a waterproof cover for your folding rabbit run is an indispensable accessory as well. In the hot summer months, it can protect your pet from direct sunlight. It also protects from rain and strong winds. The rabbit run itself will benefit from the protective function of a durable shade.
