Small Animal Playpen | TRIXIE Natura Enclosed Outdoor Run | Grey

Octoberfalling: 5/5 stars

This TRIXIE Enclosed Outdoor Run is perfect for our rabbit! It's spacious and sturdy, and the multiple doors and openings make it easy to clean, feed, and reach our pet.

We did have to make one adjustment, though. Our rabbit is a digger, so we put down some rocks around the cage to deter him from digging underneath. But other than that, this enclosure is perfect.

Our rabbit loves being able to go outside and enjoy the fresh air and sunshine, and we feel good knowing that he's safe and secure in his enclosure.

Here are some of the pros and cons of this product:

Pros:
Spacious and sturdy
Multiple doors and openings make it easy to clean, feed, and reach your pet
Portable, so you can move it around your yard or take it with you on vacation
Weatherproof, so it can be used outdoors all year long

Cons:
Some rabbits may be able to dig underneath the enclosure, so you may need to take steps to prevent this
The enclosure can be a bit difficult to assemble, but the instructions are clear and easy to follow
Overall, we highly recommend this enclosure for any rabbit owner. It's a great way to provide your pet with a safe...

Lori O: I adopted a bunny that was raised free in the outdoors. She had a surgery that requires her to be confined for 10-14 days. This pen is perfect. I would have preferred a separate top, but the way it’s set up, I can open 1/2 if the top for easier access to feeding and getting in to clean and pet her. I had purchased another brand, but it was flimsy. About the same price. This is more durable and has multiple entry points on different sides.

Anna: It was a little confusing to set up but I did it alone and worked it out with a little time and patience. It's not the most sturdy, I definitely wouldn't put anything on top of it, but it worked great for my baby chickens to grow out.

Melissa M. HoferMelissa M. Hofer: Purchased for my quails to enjoy the yard in a safe and secured manner outside of their coop. I add a couple of tree branches since they love to have a hiding area and I do add a tarp on one end for shade and rain (took off for photos). They love it and is just the perfect size and sturdy enough for them to roam and forage. The instructions were terrible, the pieces should have come numbered or with colored coded bands...it looks simple enough but it I found it frustrating to put together...that was my finding, yours can be different. While putting it together several metal bars lifted off of the frame which I found to be be very disappointing. All in all though I am very pleased for the purpose it is serving.

vwilly: Good sized, and what we needed for an agressive rooster that couldn't be around the other rooster. He was previously in a dog crate, but we wanted him to have more space, and this suits him just fine. Now that he and his ladies have their own yard, he uses this as his roosting home, and the girls as their laying home. It's tall enough for them to jump up on the sticks we slipped through for roosting. It was easy to put together, though I needed a kiddo to help me hold things in place. Lots of openings, big top hatch to let out the doves that go in for the chicken food and are too silly to find their way out. We've hung the critter water bottles on it, so they have easy access to water. We're happy with it, as it filled our needs.

FIVE CHIVE DIVE LIVE: The quality of the product is excellent.
Easy to fix and heavy enough so that the rabbits cant lift it off.
When I bought it, my rabbits had new born bunnies.
I had to wait until these were at least 4 weeks old to put up the cage for them as the slits are very big and they could easily slip through the gap.
I tried to seal it with rope but still they find their way out. My neighbors cat took one of the small ones off today, luckily I got it back and she looks fine.
So, the cage is only recommended for fully grown rabbits.
Also, if you have a full sized rabbit house, then the doors of this product are too small for them to freely wander in and out.
Only one full sized rabbit house can be attached to this product!

Jane Holmes: Being a 'girl', it took me a little while to work out how the enclosure fixed together (as well as the help of my two adult children who, in all honesty, worked it out before I did). Once completed, it was sturdy and safe for my 10 week old call ducklings to be introduced into the family to live alongside the three resident cats. The roof provided extra peace of mind during this time. To move it from one area to another is quite simple, if you are as equally lazy as I am: just pull out the four tent peg type fixings from the ground, leaving them threaded through the fixing points of the enclosure and lift in one piece. It was quite awkward for me to do this on my own and I am not sure whether it was a little heavy, because it was awkward, but I did manage it but, if there are two of you, it wouldn't be hard to do. The enclosure is a good size and I didn't feel as if I the ducklings were 'cooped up' for the transition week but I am lucky enough to have a secure garden for them to roam free in so the enclosure was collapsed flat and then stored for use, should the animals need extra security.
I have subsequently lent the enclosure to my neighbour who has newly hatched ducklings....

Mabel Jane: We're pleased with our new bunny run. The wire is much nicer than the chicken wire you have in a wooden run. I like the variety of doors, which are quite cleverly fitted, but they can be a bit fiddly to open and close. The run is fairly secure as it pegs into the ground, though we wouldn't leave it unattended for any length of time, and it's quite light to move around. The little hut for bunny to hide in fits on quite well though this should be made more secure by the addition of a couple of hooks. The run is high enough for our little rabbit to stand up in and even the kids have been inside it with him - a bit squashed up though! We can also fold the run up when it's not in use which is very practical.

Edit: I should add that on a sunny day it's vital to shade at least part of the run with a large sun-proof sheet to create shade. A waterproof sheet can also provide protection on a rainy day.
