    Hi my bun gets unlimited fresh hay all day, which you may find cheaper if you contact your local farmer, you can usually get a huge bale for around £4:j

    I then give him a small bowl full of celery, cucumber, fresh herbs such as mint,basil or parsley twice a day, which does add up to around £7 a week, so i can believe you spend that on 2!!!
    One thing i try to do is buy the large bunches of fresh herbs from asda, instead of the one ssin packets, you get twice as much for 60p!
    try this site if you need any more advice, they are brill :D

    we ask the greengrocer for the ends of spring greens etc-depending on time of year you can get lots of food (for free mostly if you make friends with them :D

    I got this one from ebay and I have to say the quality is fantastic. It has a top panel you can shut bunny in for the night and a slopping felted roof to keep it dry. I paid £50 for mine but they go for lots of different prices on there you just have to keep looking for one.
    My rabbit is crossed with a giant and is the size of a cat so you can see it's quite roomie for him.

    Wow that's awesome! If you can remember the seller that would be great! I'm looking for a run for our new rabbit.

    Hi,
    I can't remember who sold it but it was an auction.
    If you search "rabbit Coop" it should show them, keep an eye on some as some go cheaper then others, like my £50 bargain ;)

    My mum uses wood shavings but as he is a house rabbit, they do get tracked all over the house.

    It was the only solution though as she has a cat as well and using wood pellets, the cat would use that tray too and they don't like sharing!
    I don't believe and I never did that two wrongs make a right

    we use a big bag of cat litter from petsmart. will have to check out that tesco stuff tho good price. i've heard its best to avoid pine scented cat litter as it can cause breathing probs in rabbits.
    Rabbit photos time! :D

    We use newspaper (whole) in bottom of tray, then cover with lots of hay, which she loves munching on while she does her business, change twice a day and it doesn't smell.
