There are various summer products for rabbits that can help your animals during the hot days. In addition to shade and a cool place, certain products can provide cooling. Under no circumstances should you wet your animals.

At temperatures above 25 ℃ it actually starts to get too hot for the rabbits. When temperatures rise, it is important that the rabbits are supported. In addition to an ICEPOD or cooling stone, a thermal cover for the drinking bottle is recommended, which ensures that the water stays cool for longer. The drinking water must also be changed regularly so that the animals always have fresh and cool drinks. Be careful not to give ice-cold water, as this can cause diarrhea. In addition, a thermal cover provides protection against algae growth in the drinking bottle.

Myxomatosis and VHS are well-known rabbit diseases. It is important that outdoor rabbits are vaccinated against these diseases.

Tips for Rabbits on hot days

Rabbits are sensitive to heat and can overheat easily, so it is essential to ensure they have a comfortable environment to stay healthy. Here are some methods to keep rabbits cool:

  1. Shady environment: Place your rabbit's hutch/run/enclosure in a shady spot in the garden or in the house. Direct sunlight can cause temperatures to rise quickly.

  2. Ventilation: Ensure sufficient air circulation in the hutch or room in which your rabbit is located. This can help to lower the ambient temperature.

  3. Cooling stones or cool tiles: Place cooling stones, pods, aluminum plates or ceramic tiles in the cage. Rabbits can lie on this to cool down.

  4. Cool water: Make sure your rabbit always has access to fresh, cool water. You can also place bottles of frozen water in the cage for the rabbit to rest against if it gets too warm. Never give the animals ice-cold water to drink due to the temperature

  5. Wet towels: Place a wet towel or damp cloth in the cage. Rabbits can lie against this and thus lower their body temperature.

  6. Indoor Housing: If it is too hot outside, consider housing your rabbit indoors where it is cooler. Make sure the area is well ventilated and kept away from direct sunlight.

  7. Avoid exertion: Don't let your rabbit run around or play too much during the hottest hours of the day. Excessive exertion can cause them to overheat.

  8. Regular checks: Check regularly for signs of overheating in your rabbit, such as panting, lethargy or a warm coat. If you suspect your rabbit is overheating, take immediate steps to cool it down, such as applying wet cloths or moving it to a cooler location.
