Do rabbits like being in the rain?

Question
My rabbits get all wet instead of going into the dry hutch.  My cat would rest out of the rain and stay dry.  Should I lock the rabbits in the hutch if it's going to rain?

Answer
Hi,
You should either pen them up in the dry hutch or tarp the other so they don't get wet. They can get sick very easily when left out in the rain or if they get wet. This is one of the reasons you shouldn't give them a complete bath. If they get wet dry them as quick as you can. Air blowing on a wet bunny can spell disaster.
