Wooden houses for pets have been around for a long time but the British climate is not so ideal when it comes to keeping wood outside whatever treatment it has undergone.
The 'MR SNUGS' collection of dog kennels, cat houses and rabbit hutches are made to a high quality and, due to the type of material used, will last for many years if treated properly as, compared with its wood made alternatives, these products will not decay, give splinters, leak or break apart on the seams, and coupled with all the different colours available, just what adoring pet owner wouldn't wish to own one!
Every one of Mr Snugs pet homes are available in Blue, Light Blue, Green, Light Green, Orange, Pink, Purple, Red, Sandstone and Yellow.
The Snugs range of pet homes is constructed from high quality rotationally moulded plastic that is incredibly tough, durable and watertight. In contrast to wooden homes there aren't any joints to allow water ingress or let in drafts, no painting or preserving to prevent rotting, no unpleasant odours and absolutely no hiding places for micro-organisms and parasites. The Mr Snugs animal shelters have a super smooth surface making them easy to just wipe clean or hose down, and they all come with a inbuilt drain hole.
The Mr Snugs Rabbit and Guinea Pig Hutch incorporates a detachable door along with treated steel mesh bite surface areas
The complete range of Mr Snugs houses and shelters includes.
Mr Snugs Cat Shelter,Cat Palace, Mr Snugs Dog Kennels, (small and large) and Mr Snugs Rabbit Hutches and all can be bought from the online pet shop supermarket of Home Pet Shop.
When you actually first decided to get a rabbit, you might not have considered where it was going to live! So for your bunny's protection you may decide you will require a rabbit hutch or cage. When considering what kind of hutch or cage to buy, you will need to keep a few points in your head, such as the hutch is to be your rabbits retreat, a haven and home. Then there are a couple of plans to hold in mind such as the financial cost and the dimensions of the rabbit hutch and, exactly where is it likely to go and from what it should be made. Home Pet Shop has a great choice of rabbit hutches at their online pet supermarket.
For starters, if your bunny is of the small variety and might not become any bigger than 8 pounds, you should manage with a hutch from a minimum of 24 inches by 36 inches whilst the larger sizes, at the very least, really want a hutch which measures 30 inches by 36 inches. Consequently it figures that your bunny needs a home which is at minimum four times its size.
Second you need your bunny and yourself, space to move around whilst the hutch or cage is being cleaned. Apart from the standard things for instance a food bowl and water drinker, the hutch must have space for your rabbit to move around. To keep your rabbit from becoming bored, supply him/her some toys and nibble snacks.
Thirdly, if your rabbit is confined to the hutch for extended periods of time, you really require lots of room for him/her to move around and a good idea would be to invest in a rabbit run made from wire meshing which attaches to the hutch.
Fourth point to think about is exactly what type of base does the hutch/cage have. Should it have wire, think about adding a more stable area for the bunny to rest. When putting in some kind of small pet bedding, it is best to choose straw or wood shavings.
Finally avoid housing more than one bunny in the same hutch since, unless the bunnies have been spayed or neutered, you might get more than you bargained for as rabbits are prolific breeders and the bucks (males) are inclined to fight with one another as well as the does (females) for either space to have babies or to breed. The only time which the rabbits ought to be together is in a neutral area and should be watched over.
