        I have a large and high double bed. The mesh panels surrounding my bed is about finger to elbow extra in height on top of my bed’s height. Used to be enough, but seems like my rabbit’s jumping power has increased. She’s suppose to be a Giant British Rabbit, though looks more like a Giant French Lop, and is about 5 and a half months old. Based on parents’ growth rate, she’ll still be growing at 9 months old, hind legs increasing in strength and jumping higher and faster.

          Can you put her somewhere other than your bedroom?

            Yep, can’t stop that, same with my bunny when she discovered of hopping on my bed. (And I did try to fence off the part she jumped at and she climbed it)

            So your options are lock her in a pen at night, find some way of keeping her n a pen/ other room, or let your bunny sleep with you. (Mine is well mannered so she gets to sleep with me now)

              Any way you could angle the top panel of the grid outward? (like they do some fences) That or drape something over the grid so the bunny can’t see what’s on the other side? I’m just guessing so I don’t know if that would help with a mega jumper. Sometimes if animals can’t see where they will land, they are less likely to try jumping over.

                I ditto the suggestion to either keep her out of the bedroom altogether (you’d probably get a better night’s sleep too!) or pen her up at night.
