I wasn't really sure where to put this...
What are the opinions on offering rabbits a shallow pool of water to play in during hot weather?
Obviously this would depend, somewhat, on the breed of rabbit... but when I was a kid I used to have a rabbit who loved to go swimming in our wading pool during hot weather. I have a picture of her somewhere doing this - I'll have to find it and post it. She would kind of 'float' in the water, standing on her front paws with her back legs floating behind her. :lol:
Anyway, I know rabbits have issues with getting wet, so now I'm wondering if this is a safe thing to offer? I was considering offering a small wading pool for the buns when they have floor time inside.
