The Coach house and ramp?

[ladymuck83]

Hi I have just bought
http://www.therabbithutchcompany.co.uk/the-coach-house-6ft-rabbit-hutch-156.html

Has anyone else had this?

What did u lot to do to make the ramps easier to climb? Can I glue carpet? Is it ok to use normal ‘hard as nails’ glue?

Thanks

That is an amazing hutch! I have a ramp in my cage. I taped carpet on to it and then added a fleece tunnel to make them feel extra secure although I think that ramp with be fine with carpet attached. I used double sided tape for mine

Brilliant hutch.
Personally I wouldn't actually stick carpet to the ramp becasue it will get messy and need cleaning, and once it's stuck on this will be hard to do.
In my hutch I glued velcro strips to the ramp, and then glued velcro the carpet piece. This means the carpet can be removed when it needs a wash, and eventually replaced if that becomes necessary.

I used to have sand paper glued on the ramp but now I have a fleece ramp cover. I bought a customised size from Pampered Piggies Boutique Ramp Covers.

I used waterproof double sided carpet tape for the carpet on the ramp in my hutch when I used a ramp before the boys fell out. It was easy enough to take the carpet off and replace it.

Thank u great ideas there thank uuuuu

If u know anyone with the coach house please let me know. Just need to know what to expect and if anything needs adjusting now. I have bought the run and thermal cover for it now. As well as 2 snuggle safes. These piggies are spoilt!

I’d say line the inside with lino or similar so the wood doesn’t get ruined by piggy pee.

What a fabulous hutch, we have a ramp on our outdoor bunny ark (part of their run). You could cover it in roofing felt. It gives good purchase for tiny feet and files their nails at the same time x They are going to love that cage!
