It's tall enough that I can put in a shelf so they can hop up and catch the view.<br /><br />Re: I'm not looking forward to the smell. LOL.

I tried outside and the heat was just too much. So mine get a summer vacation. I have one who hates being inside and but she suffers in the heat, so she just has to suck it up and live inside. She expresses her displeasure. <br /><br />Love your buck! He's a handsome boy. Mine is a big sweetie. The only problem is that he is 200 pounds of sweetie and stinks like you wouldn't believe. He can't understand why I don't want his big smelly self to rub all over me.Marguerite Butlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10863876916017371318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3023439581304993308.post-72251612547103830642013-07-29T22:54:28.332-05:002013-07-29T22:54:28.332-05:00Well, Billy looks properly equipped for the job.

Of any kind. We don't have grasshoppers, but I do have something that mowed down my rose bush in two days flat. Which killed me because it was almost dead when I moved it from the other house, and brought it back to give me 3 beautiful coral flowers, and boom, then they were gone. Leaves and all. I believe, like your rabbits, my rose bush is coming into the house for the rest of the summer.<br /><br />And yes, no rest for those of us who have grass trees and animals.Anne Gallagherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05816355522284492131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3023439581304993308.post-83332416483339039942013-07-29T09:38:53.906-05:002013-07-29T09:38:53.906-05:00Stacy: There are hundreds of species of grasshoppe...Stacy: There are hundreds of species of grasshoppers in my area alone.
