moving bunny outside

Question
I have to give my rabbit away and an interested adopter has an outdoor hutch for rabbits.  Is it ok for my rabbit, who has been indoor his whole life to be moved outdoors?

Answer
Dear Antonietta,

I would keep searching for a better home.  I am less concerned about the change in climate than in the poor bunny suffering a lonely, boring life when she has been used to company and love all her life before.

If you write to me here:  dana@miami.edu

I will send you information on how to find a *safe* home for your rabbit, so you won't have to rely on the very first person who is willing to take him.  Please write to me.  You'll be glad you did.

Dana
