Birdfeeders How can I turn my backyard into an animal habitat?

Question by ultra _ girl: How can I turn my backyard into an animal habitat?
I live in Houston, TX so the weather must be taken into consideration. I have a large, grassed, fenced backyard. I want to make it inviting for rabbits and birds. We already have birdfeeders and bird baths. If I bought rabbits and set them loose in my backard and provided them with tunnels and food, would they survive? Or will they be killed by the neighborhood cats? And its way too hot for them in TX isn’t it? I don’t want them to be uncomfortable.

Answer by Zaphod
One of the best ways isn’t going to be pleasing to your neighbors, and that is letting the lawn go. In other words don’t mow it.
Seriously you can have sections of the back lawn you don’t mow and plant dense shrubs. Along with that you’ll need a food and water source. If it’s rabbits you want you need a type that typical around TX. Grown rabbits aren’t disturbed too much by an average cat, but a cat may go after the rabbit babies, but they’re rabbits they have lots and lots of those.
