okay, I have jack outside in a cage that I have successfully kept rabbits in before.
He's enjoying being able to stretch his legs.
BUT over this past week he's getting damp and he's now starting to lose hair.
I have nothing else to put him into that will give him the room to move in that he likes.
He's out of the way of any flies that might go after him.
It FEELS like pee (that gritty/stinky feel that pee gets).
I'm contemplating giving him a bath and bringing him in the house for the night, but if he's having accidents and/or spraying... I don't really want that in the house either. I really really DON'T.
But I'm just kind of at a loss right now. Don't want to put him down if I don't need to.
Won't engage in heroic measures for an old meat buck, but if he can live out the summer I would seriously like that.
I may put him out in the old pen that I had Carrie in. That will give him more room to spread his wings and if he is having accidents, he won't have to sit in it unless he so chooses (not that he has to sit in it in the cage he's in currently, but it gives him three times the room).
Thoughts? Ponderings??
