Please, please be careful with these runs. There is a door on the side which the rabbits can open. I have had two different people tell me their rabbits have opened them and one was caught by a fox. My own boy rattles on the door, but I have already secured it with a padlock. Please note I am not talking about the doors with chains on them, its the large door with the sliding lock.

This is the type of run I am talking about. They sell it in a few different sizes

Thanks for the warning Anna, that's terrible. I guess an extra fitting or a few pegs could sort it out if people have them already.

Also, I would add these runs are really only suitable for large rabbits. Pebbles who is 2.3kgish so not tiny, got her head stuck in the bars and it had to be wrenched open, she was screaming etc. Hetty managed to get her out, it could have been much worse.

I think they are a very good size for the money, I paid £50 for mine and its 7 foot x 4 foot , unless they have gone up in price I think thats reasonable Smile

They are just only for supervised play time in my opinion x
