I would like to provide an outdoor enclosure for him to use for a few hours each day when the weather is nice as I think the natural sun will be really beneficial for his health and growth - he's very small for his (approximate) age.
I want to get an enclosed run for him to hang out in in the day that will keep him safe from birds etc but we don't have any grass, only a patio. I'm a bit worried that the patio slabs will get too hot for him to stand on. I don't have a lot of money and it's a rented property so we can't do any major changes to the patio to accommodate him. I was wondering how others have managed this and what alternative surface I might be able to put on the ground in an outdoor run to make it safe and comfortable for him.
Or am I worrying about nothing?
Thank you very much in advance. Feel very silly asking what must be a basic question. Just want to do right by the little thing.
