Don't get me wrong, his old cage was perfectly okay for him size wise and he did particularly love biting the metal bars at night time to wake me up, but he's a very active little bunny and it seemed to me that he was getting a little bored at times. If I could be there to let him out of his cage all the time I would, but I can't be at home all day and I don't trust him to be good by himself.
I spent hours, literally hours, looking at hutches online because I'm a crazy person and I wanted to find the perfect one. Ralphie is a house rabbit and he lives in my bedroom so from a totally selfish and shallow perspective, I wanted it to look pretty too. I found something that ticked both boxes in this bunny mansion! Ta daaa!
Bunnies aren't often fond of change at first and it took him a couple of days to settle in properly. He wasn't sure of the ladder for quite a while and when he did attempt it it sounded like he was falling up and down rather than hopping. Thankfully he's got used to it now and loves nothing more than hopping around and up & down the ladder at a million miles an hour.
A happy Ralphie equals a happy Jennie!
Do you think I'm completely nuts buying such an extravagant hutch, or would you do the same? Let me know & be honest! If you think I'm insane then tell me, I'm likely to agree with you!

P.S. If you're interested in buying a new hutch for your pet then I really recommend Rabbit Hutch Warehouse, which is where I bought Ralphie's hutch from!
ohhhh sooo cute!!! XX
ReplyDeleteAwwww he really has a fancy mansion now! :)
ReplyDeleteIf I was a bunny I'd totally want to live there! xx
ReplyDeleteI love it! When we're finally allowed pets, our cats are going to be utterly spoilt so I don't think it's too much at all :) Ralphie is also super cute btw x
ReplyDeleteHaha that's so cute! My guinea pigs were really wary of their ramp at first too, the shy one woulnd't go down it for ages...they have a pretty massive hutch but they're outside.
ReplyDeleteB xo
Oh my word, that's one hell of an upgrade! Who's a lucky boy then? :P hehe.
ReplyDeleteIf my beloved guinea pig was alive, I'd be exactly the same. I used to feed him ready cut cabbage out of the packet from Marks and Spencer! Hehehehe. x
aww that's adorable, and in no way extravagant! he's so cute :) love the new mansion.. but where's the kingsize bed ;) xx
ReplyDeleteHe is the cutest thing I have ever seen! My family had a full size rabbit and she was lovely, but not as adorable as yours :) I might have to get one!
ReplyDeleteOh wow he's such a cutie! :D

I don't think you're insane at all!
ReplyDeleteI felt so bad about keeping my rabbits in a little cage that I just caved and let them take over the conservatory, although if the door's open they tend to just wander into the main part of house. I love Ralphie, he's adorable! L xx
I got my rabbits hutch from there too! It's a whooper!
ReplyDeleteJust a tip that worked for me... I put the hay on the top level only and a blanket lining the bottom so there was less mess when they got in & out of the hutch. You can use those cheap tiles you get in bathrooms too, it's much easier to clean!
he's so adorable!
ReplyDeleteyou're not crazy either, i spent ages finding the perfect hutch for my rabbit too! x
I spent almost £200 when I had a Giant British bunn and she loved her luxurious pad! I think she had a higher living standard than me!

sooo cute :) xo
ReplyDeleteI love this, my bunny Chloe Paddington lives outside (*sad face*) but she has an upstairs hutch with a little ladder down to her run. I would buy her something twice the size if I could afford it!
ReplyDeleteRalphie is adorable :-) xx
Wow it's amazing, luck Ralphie! He's such a cutie!
ReplyDeleteI think it's perfect! My mom used to spend hours constructing these grand cardboard play houses inside her mouse cages, she would greatly appreciate the bunny luxury!

I love it! No seriously, I'm animal mad and love spoiling my pets :P I'm really picky when it comes to getting 'cat trees' for my cat as I want it to be fun and colourful too. I've always wanted ferrets, and when I get some in a few years I plan on getting them a huge 3 storey wire cage and lots of cute accessories like hammocks! xxx
ReplyDeleteAww lucky Ralphie!! That house is amazing :) Def not crazy, I'd do the same if we had enough space for one xx
ReplyDeletewow!!! thats a rabbit mansion, he is obviously well loved =)
ReplyDeleteAwww, that is gorgeous :). He's a very lucky bunny :)
ReplyDeletecutest thing ever :D that middle photo of him eating especially! Frankly... I want that house for me it's so epic! xxx

Awwww lucky Ralphie! Such an adorable little munchkin! I'm sure he'll have a wonderful time in his new house :) Lol, your not crazy at all lovely, the amount of weird/insane things I've bought for my kitty in the past! Even SHE had a time figuring what the hell some of them were! Ralphie's a very lucky bunny to have such a lovely owner :)
ReplyDeleteLove Aysh xoxo
Our bunnies look so alike. I think your Ralphie should make babies with my Pumpkin! x
ReplyDeleteOh that's so sweet! I honestly can't get enough of adorable little Ralphie! He's just so cute! Glad he's enjoying his new home :) x
ReplyDeletehahha thats awesome,
ReplyDeleteif Bertie (my bunny) saw this he would be very jealous :D

aw wow lucky Ralphie!! My bunny lives outside in a similar hutch but he is a big bunny! A lionhead - so cute! He just got a little poorly and had to have some work done on his teeth so we've been bringing him indoors but he just loves it outside! :) xx
ReplyDeleteThat is a pimp house! haha I love it. Bet he loves it, lots of space for him till he can roam the room. Miss my rabbits now.
ReplyDeleteAww bless! I'd do the same if I had a house rabbit to be honest :) xxx
ReplyDeleteAw Raphie is so cute! and that's definitely not ridiculous, I would definitely do the same (: Hope he enjoys his new house!
ReplyDeleteI really wish I had a bunny. I'd buy him that hutch, too!
ReplyDeleteAw Ralphie definitely deserved a new home! I'd probably do the same and go all out with a sweet hutch to be honest, you may as well ;) xx
ReplyDeleteAwww Ralphie is the luckiest bunny ever!!!
ReplyDeleteLois xxx
you are an amazing bunny mama :) I would totally do this too! I'm one of those ladies who has stairs leading to my bed for my dog though, haha.
ReplyDeleteooh how luxurious for ralphie, i hope hes diggin' his new pad
ReplyDeleteYou are so not nuts, I think this is awesome! I'm always buying crazy things for my dog, it's what us 'owners' do! The hutch.... mansion looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteL x
I adore it - you've done him so good! :) It's great that you have more space to live and give him his own as well. :) X

Ralphie is the cutest bunny ever! With the cutest name ever too :)
ReplyDeleteHe looks rather happy in his new bunny mansion xxx
Awww he is unbelievably cute, I want a rabbit now!
ReplyDeleteI don't think it's crazy at all, I would do the same thing if I had a bunny!
lucky rabbit! I'm pretty sure his Mansion is larger than my bedroom! Hopping right on to the property market, clever little thing ;)
ReplyDeleteI dont think you're crazy at all! If I had the space and money to do it, I would get a bigger space for my piggies too! :( This is gorgeous though Jennie, Ralphie is a lucky boy xxx
