Getting Ready to Move

Looking for a little advise regarding best way to help myself and my bunnies on this one.

Pretty sure it's going to take forever to sell the property in the current market, but planning is everything and wondering about any advise people have to keep bunnies calm and comfy during the whole process of selling and moving.

I suspect with potential buyers traipsing in and out, and then us eventually moving, they could get quite stressed - especially Chloe, because she's a neurotic wee thing and gets very nervous around new people and new places.

Unfortunately I have no garden, and even if I did I wouldn't trust anyone in the neighbourhood to not try to steal them - though anyone looking to buy my house, please ignore that last statement - and I don't really want to have to ship them out of the house for an indefinite period of time.

That is a hard one. I've never moved house so have no direct experience.

I should think that you could maybe keep them in their cage when you get viewers. That way there is no danger of them being stood on or stressed by strangers trying to touch them. If there was a nice bit of veg in the cage, that might make it even more appealing.

When you come to move out, you could perhaps leave them overnight with someone, then move in and collect them when you have got all your stuff in and managed to clear a wee corner for them.

It is a difficult balancing act, letting them have somewhere quiet but not being with them.

Hope your house sells OK. Our market up here is just dead as we are still waiting to hear what is to happen with RAF Lossiemouth. Fingers crossed for good news.

Ive never had to move since having Daisy thank goodness, but I suspect he would stress.........

I would try and keep them in a cage or pen when people come around, like Nickie says - perhaps distract them with something yummy.

Good luck hun x x

I am actually between homes just now. We moved out of our flat last week and move into the new one next week. Thumper is at my parents house (without me), where she is totally familiar with but she is still a bit unsettled, nothing wrong as such, just not herself.

I go and see her twice a day and she is round my feet following me the whole time I am there.

What I'm getting at is, hopefully so long as the people they are used to being around are still around, then maybe they won't be too out of sorts.

That seems to be the way with Thumper so I hope it's the same for you
