Submitting for daily 4 legged animal check.  

Rabbit hutches are swept, cleaned, water and food dishes cleaned and refilled, and litter boxes cleaned and filled with dry shavings.

Animals are inspected for weight/body condition,  cleanliness, and nails trimmed as needed.  

Pictures:  

(Editing to add housing safety check pictures too)
