If you decide to get a rabbit, then you will first need to build a cage for him. There is nothing difficult in making a cage. The main thing is desire and perseverance.
Instructions
Step 1
When you start building, keep in mind that you will have to carry out all the necessary steps to care for your rabbit. And this is cleaning the cage, feeding and caring for it. And the main thing is a comfortable approach to the cage. So decide on a place where it will stand. First you need to deal with the support for the cage. Dig in the wooden racks that will hold the cage. The most important element is the construction of the floor. Since the purity of the cell will depend on its design. A good option is a mesh and slatted floor, but you can also use a solid floor. It is better to tilt the solid floor towards the back of the cage. The slope should be no more than 5 cm. And if you use slats, then the distance should not be more than 14 mm.
Step 2
When making walls, you need to ensure that they do not have cracks. To do this, bend the boards tightly to each other so that there are no drafts, and your pet will always be healthy. Also, one of the walls can be replaced with a lattice, because air is also important for a rabbit. However, you should not completely make a cage out of lattices.
Step 3
The roof must be made slightly larger in area than the cage. In front, it should protrude 25-30 cm. And at the back and on the sides by 15 cm. You can use slate, if available, or you can also make it from boards. But do not forget that there are no gaps. Moisture should not seep into the cage. The rabbit will be uncomfortable and may get sick. And don't forget the door. The main rule is that it should close tightly. Make the width so that it is convenient for you to look after your pet. And you can hang a drinking bowl on the door, so it will be convenient for you and your rabbit.
