Connect Your Hutch To A Larger Enclosure
The most popular use of the Zippi bunny tunnel system is to connect your existing rabbit hutch (including wooden hutches or Eglu Go rabbit hutches) to a large bunny enclosure which can be anywhere in your backyard. It is quick and simple to do, all extras are supplied for you to attach a Zippi connection frame to the side of your rabbit hutch and then clip on lengths of the bunny tunnel. The frame measures 12.2in high by 9.8in wide and is designed to fit any make and model of rabbit hutch.
Provide your Bunny with an Active Habitat
The Zippi Tunnel allows your bunny to have safe and secure access to an exercise space whenever it wants through its very own Zippi burrow system. This is an amazingly convenient way for you to provide your pet with a habitat that promotes an active lifestyle, with the benefit of a more relaxed and healthier rabbit. Discover the amazing difference a Zippy tunnel system makes for you and your rabbit.
Each tunnel section measures 35.4in in length and has an inner diameter of 7.1in
Build Your Dream Tunnel System
The Zippi bunny tunnels come in 35.4in lengths and are easily joined together using Omlet’s specially designed connectors. You can quickly add and remove sections without any tools using the push button locking mechanism. There are no limits to the size or shape of the tunnel system you can build and you can add T-Junctions, Corner Pieces, Look-Outs, and Hay Racks. The flexible burrow pipes can run behind a flower bed, along a fence, and bend around trees to allow your bunny to safely access areas of the backyard that would otherwise be out of reach. The Zippi tunnel system means you can keep the hutch close to your house (for easy food and water top offs) while giving your rabbits the run of the backyard with fresh and free grass everyday! Start building your perfect system and discover the amazing difference a Zippi tunnel makes for you and your rabbits.
Connect to Multiple Playpens or Enclosures
One of the main benefits with the Zippi Tunnels is that you can give your bunnies access to one or more runs that they can hop into whenever they want. Zippi has been designed to connect to any type of run, including the Zippi Rabbit Enclosures and Omlet’s Outdoor Rabbit Run. By adding corners and T-Junctions you can also lead your bunnies to a Zippi Playpen where you and your children can spend time with your pets. Access to these areas can be simply controlled with a door in the Zippi Frame which you can open and close at different times of the day.
"Rabbits love to run, hop, and jump, so it is important that you provide your pets with enough space to play in every day."
Move the Enclosure - not the Hutch
The flexibility of the Zippi tunnels means you can easily move your bunny's enclosure around the backyard without having to move the hutch itself. This allows the hutch to stay close to the house for convenient access while you simply lift and move the attached Zippi Run to a new location. The connectors are so easy to use that you can continually change the setup and give your rabbit a fun and varied habitat. They are also really strong, durable and will last throughout the years.
Maximize the Space Within Your Backyard
Whatever size or shape of backyard you have you can maximize the space available by using the Zippi tunnel system. Bend around flowerbeds, behind rock gardens, and over patios to give your bunny access to areas previously well out of reach. Using Zippi to move a run you could even use your rabbits as an environmentally friendly and fun way to mow your lawn!
Your Children And Bunnies Will Love It!
The Zippi burrow pipes have been designed with children in mind. Children love watching their bunnies run down the tunnels and pop out to say hello! If your child is confident with their rabbit then they can operate the frame doors and even rearrange the tunnels themselves. It you do not want your children to be able to undo the connectors then you can completely secure the connectors with the screw locks which come free with every Zippi connector.
"Children love watching their bunnies run down the tunnels and pop out to say hello!"
Add a Hay Station or Lookout
You can upgrade the Zippi T-section with a dual use Hay Station that doubles as a Look-Out. The Hay Station comes with a water bottle holder and kids can easily fill the container with hay or other fresh vegetable treats. By attaching the base of the Hay Rack to the top you can convert it into a Look-Out. This is a great alternative use and one you and your bunnies will enjoy. Children love waiting by the Look-Out to spot their pet as they explore their Zippi tunnel world!
Connect Your Eglu Go Hutch To A Larger Run
The Zippi Tunnel system is designed so that it can be easily and securely connected to the run of the Eglu Go Rabbit Hutch. The Zippi Frame can simply be attached directly to the run (all attachments are supplied). You can then connect to any type of enclosure including the new range of Zippi Playpens and Runs and Omlet’s Outdoor Pet Runs, giving your pets even more space to exercise.
"A play-pen is a popular way to allow your children to learn about their pet in a safe and relaxed environment."
Optional Lock Out Door
A really useful feature of the Zippi bunny tunnel system is the optional Lock Out Door that can be added to any Zippi Door Frame. It is a clever way to be able to temporarily control your pet’s access into the Zippi tunnel system.
Ideal for Cleaning Time
You can use it to keep your bunny in the run or playpen while you clean out the hutch - or vice versa - or while you change the layout of your Zippi system. It is important to note that the door should only be used to keep pets within a hutch or enclosure and not within the tunnel itself.
Raises Up From Your Lawn
Omlet’s specially designed Zippi support hoops can be used to lift the burrow pipes by approximately 3.5in off the ground. This thoughtful detail will allow the grass under the tunnels to keep growing leaving your lawn in perfect condition. You can also use the strong steel support hoops to steer your bunny's activity tunnels around a tight corner or tree.
Easy To Clean
As with all Omlet products the Zippi tunnel has been designed to be easy to clean. Using the door in the Zippi frame, you can temporarily close the tunnel so your bunnies cannot access it. Then you simply open the connectors to release each section of the tunnel. The burrow pipes can be washed out with water and a pet safe disinfectant, drainage and ventilation holes along the length mean you do not have to worry about drying the pipes.
"Even with a long system, cleaning the Zippi tunnel just takes a few minutes."
Safety every day of the year
The Zippi tunnels are designed to ensure your rabbit stays safe and protected when exploring.
The tunnels have a unique locking connector at each end which requires two buttons to be released to open it. In addition each connector can be further secured, if necessary, using the locking screw.
The tunnels have been temperature tested and can be used in hot and cold conditions, and each section of activity tunnel has ventilation and drainage holes throughout its entire length.
We recommend closing off the tunnels at night to keep your rabbits safe in their hutch.
How do I Connect Zippi to a Run?
The Zippi door frame can be connected to any wire mesh fencing or to any solid surface, for example the wall of a wooden hutch.
Before attaching the Zippi door frame you will need to cut a square hole in the mesh or wood. All of the attachments are included, as are clear and complete instructions. You will receive cover strips to place over the cut edges so that you are left with a very neat finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it suitable for all rabbits, even giant ones?
Yes, the tunnels are 7 in. in diameter, so even average sized giant breed rabbits should be able to use them comfortably.
Do the tunnels bend?
The tunnels are flexible, and bend to a certain degree. However, if you want the tunnels to go around something or in a different direction, you will need to use the 90-degree corner pieces.
Please check the tunnels regularly for any ware or damage, especially if the tunnel is bent. Immediately remove the tunnel if you spot any deterioration.
Are the tunnels suitable for cats or chickens?
The tunnels have been designed to be used by rabbits and guinea pigs only and are therefore not suitable for any other pet.
Are the tunnels chew proof?
Although super strong and chew resistant, the tunnels are not 100% chew proof. Give your rabbits or guinea pigs plenty of opportunities to chew on more suitable things and lock the tunnels if you are worried about other animals chewing through the tunnels at night.
How big are the tunnels?
The standard tunnel piece is 2 ft. 11.4 in. long and 7 in. in diameter. You can find dimensions for all other Zippi accessories here.
How many tunnels can you connect together?
You can connect as many tunnels together as you like, and you can add more tunnels and accessories at a later date.
How do they connect?
Tunnels connect to other tunnels or other accessories with connectors. There are two types of connectors. Straight connectors join Zippi tunnels, T-sections or corners together. They can also be used in conjunction with a Zippi door frame to connect the tunnel to a run or playpen. Angled connectors join the Zippi tunnels to a hutch or angled run when used in conjunction with a Zippi door frame.
Can I cut the tunnels in half?
We do not recommend cutting the tunnels as the edges can become very sharp and affect how well the connectors work.
When using support hoops, will the tunnels be low enough for my guinea pig to access them?
Yes, that shouldn’t be a problem. Push the hoops in as far into the ground as possible where the guinea pig is entering the tunnels to make it easier. If they seem to be struggling, we suggest creating a ramp or a step leading up to the tunnel entrance.

Zippi Rabbit Tunnel System
Just what was needed
We adopted 2 rabbits from the RSPCA, we had the hutch and a run but we were asked to connect them. Having searched and read reviews we bought a hutch to run connector. It was so easy to fit with clear instructions. The connector comes with a sliding door however due to the design of our hutch (bought from another source) the door wouldn't slide, but to be honest it really isn't a game changer.
I would definitely recommend this product and has made my daughter very happy as it enabled us to adopt her longed for rabbits

Excellent product!
I bought this to solve a problem I had. I rent and needed a way to attach the catioto the house in a way which isn't permanent. This is perfect! It:s superbly made. Very sturdy and the attachment collar is inspired. I wouldn't hesitate to order from Omlet in future.

Sturdy and easy to use
I initially bought one of these tunnels, but soon purchased two more as they make moving our rabbits on to fresh grass much easier, enabling me just to move one run and not the whole hutch. Compatiblity with other runs and hutches made these simple to use.

Fun for rabbits, great for lawn
I initially bought one tunnel, but have now got three, plus a tee junction. The rabbits love using the tunnels and it makes it much easier to change the configurations and move their runs to fresh grass, rather than having to move hutch and all.

Zippi makes a great low profile Catio for my dad’s 55+ community
After I added the cat balcony enclosure for my 3 cats, I wanted one for my dad. He was worried about the 6ft height and neighbors complaining to the HOA. The zippi double height was the perfect compromise. Absolutely love the platforms and would love them for the catios! The ramp worked perfectly for in front of the cat door - although I’ve got a corner platform coming to put in front of the door. I also used the green door kit pieces from the coop line to frame in the cut area for the cat door.
Only suggestion I’ve got is 1 long piece to insert into the door to keep it locked vs 2. And honestly if you offered a 3ft high cat tree, it would be fun to add a few small steps and scratching post. So many more things that can be done mixing and matching the different lines - wish omlet would get more creative in mixing cat/rabbit enclosures!
