Beat the Heat: Keep Your Rabbits Cool This Summer! 🐰🌞

Summer brings sunny days which means we need to take extra care for our furry friends.

Here’s how to keep your rabbits safe & comfortable:

💧 Offer a water bowl so that they can get a better drink; they will drink more efficiently and faster this way, and that’s important in the heat. Cool water will help to cool them down a bit. Don’t chill the water, but make sure it’s not boiling in the sun.

🧊 Do not give your rabbits ice cubes, as they can cause problems with their digestive system.

🧴 Sun tan lotion is a no. They are likely to lick it off, and we are yet to see a rabbit with ear skin cancer.

☁️ Offer plenty of shade, but if you are draping something over a run, make sure the air can circulate. The use of a battery-operated fan on runs or enclosures can help. Aim the fan at a frozen water bottle to cool the air it's circulating.

❄️ Frozen water bottles or cool pods are helpful.

No need to change their diet at all; just stick to their usual diet and make sure they drink lots by following the tips above.

Access to a safe, shady exercise area 24/7 is even more important in this heat as they will want to exercise when it cools down am and pm.

Share your keeping cool tips and photos with us! 📷

Dogs die in hot cars

Although it's tempting to bring your pets with you when you're out and about this summer, temperatures can soar inside cars and heatstroke can happen within minutes.

Leave your pets at home 🏡

18/06/2025

We have got some lovely weather forecast over the next few days.

Our furry friends can overheat very quickly, and heat stroke can be fatal.

●Keep pets indoors or in cool shaded areas.
●Take dogs for walks only when the sun has set and the ground is cool (consider not walking flat faced breeds at all).
●Keep small animals such as rabbits and guinea pigs in the shade or inside. Hutches, sheds and cages can get very hot very quickly.
●Make sure your pets have plenty of water available at all times
