Hello

My daughter really, really wants a GP. My BF hates them. I used to have GPs as a kid, and they were kept outdoors. I used to live in south germany then, and they seemed to cope fine with the rather harsh winter conditions.

I now live in the UK, so cold winters are not so much a problem, but dampness and foxes are. How can I build an outdoor cage which is fox proof ? Would a raised hutch be enough to prevent it from getting too damp ? ( I would have to stuff the gap between the hutch and the floor with hay/straw during the winter ?)

I know you don't agree to outdoor GPs much, but this is the only compromise I can find.

Thanks
Sabine
