Please note: The SnuggleSafe heatpad is SGS/ Smithers RAPRA tested (ISO accredited) and batch tested for product conformity.
These worked OK but i would like a more permanent solution that doesnt involve me dashing outside at midnight with the snuggle safe thingmes. Something you also need to be aware of when using heating pads, putting additional blankets or pads on top will further insulate the heating pad and cause it to trap the heat in.

Rabbits hide illnesses very well and there are a whole multitude of reasons why a seemingly young, healthy rabbit would die in winter (or indeed at any time of year), and I would suspect that cold is nowhere near the top of the list of prime suspects unless the rabbit's accommodation was not packed with clean, dry bedding, leaked water, was covered over so 'well' that there was no ventilation, or the rabbit was taken between indoors and out during the colder weather.He has a super thick soft coat so I do think he stays pretty warm, but I think it would be great to get him a heating pad.
