Thats Unique.

So most of the people that have passed through Bakersfield know the only thing that could kill a rabbit here is the Heat not the cold, but on Monday night it was raining so hard and the wind was blowing && there was a freeze warning we decided it was time to do something for the outside rabbits. My dad managed to put up plastic around the back patio to protect from the wind. Then he managed to run over to Home Depot to get a heater. We also stuffed their cages with straw.
THEN the next morning as the family was getting ready the Breaker broke because i guess it couldn't handle an extreme heater, 1 curling iron, 1 straightener and a blow dryer all going at the same time. So on tuesday night we just had to stuff their cages with straw again and hope that it didn't get to cold. The breaker still isn't fixed but now that the storm has passed he have got tell tomorrow night to fix it until the next storm comes in. It is the wind that makes it so cold for the rabbits so hopefully if we manage to keep the plastic on we should be fine. There aren't to many disadvantages to it being cold, our pointed white mini lop has managed to darken up! :) and now all our rabbits are getting lovely soft winter coats, but there was no way we could proceed with putting the rest of the rabbits outside until we put up a permanent patio covering that covers the whole patio to block the rabbits from the wind.
Well thats all :). Maybe it will actually snow this year? (Wishful thinking)
