  • Hello! In this video I made a rabbit cage for my rabbit Frankie. Keep in mind that I also free rang him. I have also made some adjustments since I have posted this video. If you want more rabbit videos make sure to comment because I would love to make more! I am also happy to make a more in depth video talking about the materials, costs, dimensions, and more because I know that I did not go into details in this video. Also feel free to ask questions in the comments.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Q&A:
    All Supplies came from: Lowe’s
    Dimensions of cage: 75” , 32” , 30”
    IMPORTANT: make sure that if you make this cage with the listed dimensions that you are also free ranging your rabbit daily.
    Total cost of cage: around $80 (keep in mind I already had some of the supplies such as the nails, some mesh, as well as all the tools needed.)

    • @mystiqueari838
      @mystiqueari838 2 роки тому +1

      @NS Voo I’m sure they weren’t implying that she should free roam, just that there isn’t enough space. And even if she wanted to free roam I could see that her enclosure is in her room and she could simply close the door. No need to be so harsh but I do think that it has plenty of space necessary.
      Even better, in her description it clearly says she free ranges so think before you speak!

    • @cecilyhansen3315
      @cecilyhansen3315  3 роки тому +1

      Michael Mendez thank you so much! I actually don’t think it’s necessary to attach the cage to the flooring. The cage just sits on top of the flooring and I haven’t had any issues with my rabbit getting out or moving the cage. Just make sure that you leave a lip of the flooring free so that you can rest the cage on top. I hope this helps 😊

    I think it is too small for the bunny, your should make or buy a bigger playpen ! Therefore, it will be more space to play! Also, you need to add a little bed and a hiding box for it. Therefore, it will be more comfortable! I also love your settings!

    I love seeing innocent animals being cute, my bunny died very recently, and he reminds me so much of him (And he was only about three months old), but God was/is with me every step of the way, I can’t imagine my life without God, He has brought me so much joy and relief I have to share this, : Will you go to Heaven when you die? Here’s a quick test: Have you ever lied, stolen, or used God’s name in vain? Jesus said, “Whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” If you have done these things, God sees you as a lying, thieving, blasphemous, adulterer at heart, and the Bible warns that one day God will punish you in a terrible place called Hell. But God is not willing that any should perish. Sinners broke God’s Law and Jesus paid their fine. This means that God can legally dismiss their case: “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” Then Jesus rose from the dead, defeating death. Today, repent (turn away from sin) and trust Jesus, and God will give you eternal life as a free gift. Then read the Bible daily and obey it. God will never fail you.
