How can I keep my rabbit cool during hot weather without air conditioning?

[]

Answer

Keeping rabbits cool in hot weather is vital as they are susceptible to heatstroke. Provide multiple sources of fresh, cool water, and consider adding ice cubes to their crock. You can freeze water in plastic bottles for them to lean against, or place ceramic tiles in their enclosure for a cool resting spot. Ensure good air circulation with a fan (not directed straight at them). Dampen a towel and drape it over a portion of their hutch, or mist their ears lightly with cool water. Never fully submerge them. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
