Are curtains good for insulation?
- Absolutely. Curtains reduce the amount of air exchange between a cold window and the rest of the room. For keeping heat inside the home, high quality curtains can reduce heat loss by around 40%, particularly if they are floor length and close to the wall and window panes. The insulation efficiency depends on the fabric type (closed or open weave), colour and weight.
While double-glazing is another effective method of preventing heat loss from windows, curtains and drapes can also make a room look and feel cosier when it’s cold outside, particularly if you choose plush or heavy fabrics.

Of course there's also people who will keep their rabbits and love them, even after finding that out but don't have their enclosure if it's outside fully secured and as such rabbit escapes
I'm not calling for a witch hunt against rabbit owners just simply asking for people to be on the lookout for rabbits during this time of year, domestic rabbits can not survive in the wild even if "wild" means roaming around in a suburb, they have no survival instincts when compared to wild rabbits and are dependent on people for survival
If you are getting a rabbit and are housing them outdoors make sure their hutch and run is secure so they can't dig out and that it isn't open to the air, we do after all have our native falcon and here in Naenae we've got one flying about, she dived at where I'd had my rabbits outside earlier that day one time, not to mention she attacked a duck on our front lawn, so yeah rabbit owners keep an eye and ear out for her too

"Hi, we’re Zac and Zoe – two best buds looking for a home together. Zac is the happy-go-lucky one of the two of us, while Zoe is a little more timid, but together we’re a perfect pair! We would love someone around for parts of the day, this is until we are settled into our new routine as toileting can sometimes be hit and miss. Our forever home would have no other dogs or cats and children. We’re an older pair, so on the hunt for a home to live out of golden years – the best years of our lives! We’ve been spending some time in foster care and our foster mum has nothing but good things to say about us, but we’re so ready to find our forever home now…please help us do that."
