What's the best way to keep my outdoor rabbit safe from predators?

[]

Answer

Keeping an outdoor rabbit safe from predators is challenging but essential. A secure hutch is vital, constructed with strong, chew-proof wire (e.g., hardware cloth, not chicken wire) and a solid roof. Ensure latches are predator-proof, and the hutch is elevated or has a solid base to prevent digging underneath. Consider an additional secure run during the day, always supervised if possible. Even then, predators like hawks, foxes, and wild cats can be persistent. For ultimate safety, providing a fully enclosed, predator-proof enclosure or keeping your rabbit indoors is recommended. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
