This is 7 inches off the ground correct? Has anyone experienced problems with wandering dogs scaring their rabbits?

I think it is more than seven inches off the ground. Our cage sits outside our home and no fence. No problems with any wandering critters this is a sturdy well built cage

It's a bit higher, but I will measure when I arrive home. Dogs will scare your rabbits. Years ago I had a rabbit who got out and when the dog noticed her, she simply had a heart attack and died. We keep the hutch inside, and one night the bunny got out (due to leaving the ramp down) and scared the you know what out of my cowardly kitties. Rabbits are really fun to keep inside. You can box train them and they do really well. The hutch is of nice quality and we have enjoyed it. Remember, if the bunny urinates on the very corner of the hutch, it can run down the leg of the hutch. Not so bad if it's outside, but on carpet...yikes!

We did not experience any problems with wandering dogs. The construction is good, the grill in front is strong and has a nice hiding space for Rabbit to its right side. Good quality product. We like it.

I do not have any issues with tipping over, however, if you encounter the problem, I would suggest drilling 2 small holes in the high side and attach the box to an exercise pen or whatever caging you use, with 2 shower curtain hooks. Make sure the box is not treated or impregnated with Microban, which is very toxic to rabbits. Some manufacturers use it to contain odor, but rabbits may chew the rim of the box and ingest it. I found the large boxes at Tractor Supply and they are chemical free and Amazon may offer some sellers too.

The Floor pan is about 2 inches off the ground. I don't know what size bunny you have but I have a 14.5lbs 24inches long and the cage is perfect. I don't know if that helps.

I think so. It is a steep ramp. My bunny rarely goes up it. But it is definitely big enough.

Always has to be down. Also to small for two rabbits. There are larger cages where u can close off ramp and have two separate cages.

I have two. I put one of them at 3' and the other about 6" higher. I was having issues with snakes. So hopefully, there is no way a snake can get to them. Good luck

It is high enough from the ground to keep animals out and the materials are substantial. No vermin have attempted to get into ours. I live on a farm in the Midwest, where there is a lot of wildlife. I can't measure now but I'm guessing the lowest part of the drum is at least 2' off the ground.

It would be perfect for bunnies unless they were like ours that would dig under anything. As a play yard for supervised temporary use it would be great. It is very sturdy and easy to use and store. I did spray it with an extra coating of rustoleum spray paint on the bottom of each piece that was touching the ground to prevent rust from forming. I have had mine set up for appx. 3 years and so far so good. It sets up in just a few minutes and you don't need help to so it. Also it looks nice when it is set up, it is not an eyesore to your property

The gaps are about 1.5 in, but at the bottom they are about 2 in. You might need to block it up a bit, depending on the size of the rabbit...

mine is mounted on a greenhouse frame to exclude rabbits, the posts are four feet apart, there is some sagging

Hey Stacy,.. I am not too sure,as I have a family of 5 bunnies that reside in an extra large dog cage, so they have the bottom of that to protect their feet. I did purchase one of the Peter mats but my rabbits had it totally torn apart after a few days. They also were spoiled using it, as they got a bit lazy and urinated on it etc. But regardless, It is worth trying out for the price! Just try n make sure u get something that is ok for them to ingest, as having a new item in their area may cause them to nip at it etc. Unless u get another new chew toy in there at the same time,.. it may help distract him or her from the new 'carpet". Sorry I couldn't be of more help!!! Best of Luck, Kristi Hey Stacy,..

The one of these designed for rabbits is called the Rabbit Hutch with a View (ASIN: B0029ETGJQ). I can't speak to its quality or anything, but the design is definitely different. The sleeping area does not have a wire floor (according to one of the reviewers), it is a removable plastic tray like this. The wire in the run looks less predator resistant, but the openings and the ramp are definitely more tailored to rabbits. I would probably reinforce the wire on the run of the "rabbit" one with hardware cloth, but it looks nice for a wooden hutch.

It is a little narrow. The measurements are correct, but I wanted the height as a trade off for my rabbit to be able to run from the bottom to the top area.

Yes they would be alright for rabbits . the space between the bars are an inch apart.

You would need to place the receiver outside the path of the animal. There is no sensitivity setting. I place all of my alarms 24" to 30" above the floor, in a place the animals can not access. Hope this helps.

It is not that huge. I think they measure it by the tips of his ears to his feet- not really his body height. We ended up sending ours back b/c it wasn't the "huge" rabbit we were wanting.

Yes, this works great for me. It keeps all critters out except chipmucks which scoot right under the wire. I run two strands of wire: one about an inch or two above the ground and one around six inches higher so groundhogs, rabbits, etc. cannot get in without touching the wire. If you want to keep deer out, you will have to run a strand higher up as well, maybe 3-4 feet high.FYI: anything that touches the wire will short it out so you have to keep weeds and garden plants from touching the wire.
