    Because I spoke to the HA and they knew nothing about it, they are who came back with the looking after it whilst someone is on hols story.

    Its a good job im a busy body poor thing had no water when I went to check on it last night I have also given it some hay (stands back and prepares to be told she is evil for feeding someone else's rabbit :rotfl: )

    Nothing riles me more than mistreatment of an animal whether it's through ignorance or neglect. I cant understand getting something and not looking into its care its making me frustrated.

    At least its in shade now and away from the stink.

    I'm gobsmacked a the response OP has got on this thread.

    This is a rabbit left in a smelly,stuffy, fly ridden, dark, hot bin shed, not a nice shady, clean, airy part of a shared garden. People really think that's OK?

    And I really don't get those saying 'oh, it's alright, the rabbit probably has a lovely cage and space at home, it's only temporary'. In that case why isn't the 'carer' visiting it at home while it's owner is away to feed it, clean it and interact with it, that's what most caring pet owners would arrange, not leaving it in a freaking bin shed, shared or not, for over a week.

    Shocking.

    No, I don't think it's OK at all.

    If the tone of the notes you've left is anything similar, maybe that's why they've been ignored.

    My point exactly. :cool:

    These people do.
    Probably in bin store as hardstanding for a hutch (as a guess). A shared garden is exactly that - shared. Not for the exclusive use of the OP's bunny-eating dogs. What if a resident wants to get a permanent rabbit/guinea pig in a hutch? You have said bunny is fed and looked after, just causing you an inconvenience.

    So its spending a week or so in a small hutch with food and water while its owners are on holiday, why does it matter that the hutch is in a bin store, all a bin store is a recess in a wall and would provide the hutch with a good deal of shelter.

    I don't see anyone on this thread saying - or even implying - that the OP is evil.
