Would this be ok for a rabbit? Or is it made of a soft plastic a rabbit could chew through?

It is fairly hard plastic. The animal shelter where I volunteer uses the same kind of enclosures for their rabbits.

Hmmm, I've never had a pet rabbit, so I don't know how much they chew. But this plastic is hard--hard enough to contain my puppy and she never did try to chew it. The sections come apart and I use mine in various configurations around the house and outside, as gates on an open door, in a doorway to keep the dog in a room, etc. Hope this helps.

It is a very sturdy plastic, but still it's plastic. I don't think your dog would destroy it - maybe cosmetic damage, though. You could only put it down for feeding and then take it up. It takes my dog about 5 minutes to eat now instead of 30 seconds, so it's very effective. I am glad I bought it.

My rabbit could jump over it. We always put a sheet on top of it. The plastic liner on the bottom my rabbit ate.

This would not be a good cage for a hamster. My rabbit (who weighed about 6 pounds), was able to stick her entire nose through the bar. After enough chewing, she was able to make a sizable opening. (one a fancy bear would definitely be able to squeeze through).

It's pretty strong. I don't think deer would chew through it. But it is a plastic material -- substantial, but not metal. Much more substantial than my other bird netting, however.

My dog is a powerful chewer but hasn't chewed on the bed. I'm not sure how well it would hold up if she decided to chew it. The legs are made out of pretty solid pvc and the canvas is thick. The company has excellent customer service. I was missing a piece of the bed when I unpacked it (on the weekend). I sent an e-mail to the company and heard back from them the same day and they sent the missing parts out right away. Good luck.

I would assume so. Ours was for our Netherland dwarf rabbit. He fit in it fine!! He has it about halfway eaten now though. He used to lay in it.

The bottom is one piece with no zipper or velcro. However the door has a three sided zipper and allows you to roll up the door panel to keep it open. The top has a zipper the total circumference of the top and can actually be removed totally. I think it would be fine for a rabbit.

Hi, I think you would be safe using it for a chinchilla. Our rabbit is approx. 7 lbs. and she fits in it just fine. She doesn't try to chew it at all. I don't think she likes to chew plastic. It comes with anchors too, so they can't move it or flip it over.

don't remember my rabbit rip it in less than a week and it went into the trash. I still have the pen and it is good size. I have it set up long about 6 feel by 6 feet. my guess.

This is a great feeder for any rabbit. However it is made of a resin type material and rabbits are known to chew and if they are not offered other chewing options and sometimes regardless if they do have other options they will chew this up and quickly. I would suggest a metal hay and food feeder.

Our rabbit has done the same thing. Rabbits love to chew on anything available. I googled it and I found you should keep the bunny busy with toys and other things to keep its mind off of chewing its house!

If a rabbit wanted something on the other side of this stuff, they'd be through it in seconds. If your main concern is keeping rabbits at bay, you really need to go with something metal (chicken wire, etc.).

I bought this for a puppy and she doesn't try to chew it so I'm not sure about a rabbit.

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,..

Not that I know of, but friends did use it for rabbits. If they can drink from a bowl should be ok.

the hard plastic tray that goes underneath he cant really get to it since the edges extend past the inside perimeter its really hard for a dog to get to it and chew ont it. I use it for my my not so young puppy now have not had any problems as far as chewing is concerned, especially since its galvanized and not painted it is really not atractive to dogs
