Things to consider before adopting a Rabbit.
Rabbits can be playful, friendly and loving animals if treated right. Many rabbits come into rescue centres due to not being handled or treated properly, so some can be temperamental. Rabbits can be housed both indoors and outdoors. When housed outdoors, rabbits will need a large hutch and an exercise area. Rabbits need plenty of exercise and toys to play with to keep them from getting bored. The cage must be cleaned regularly to prevent diseases. Like cats and dogs rabbits also need vaccinations. An average age of a rabbit is 6-10 years.
What rabbits need. Can you provide the following?
• Companionship - To ideally be with other rabbits or humans. The widespread practice of keeping rabbits and guinea pigs together is not recommended.
• A balanced diet and a good quantity of hay.
• A constant supply of fresh, clean drinking water in a drip feed bottle with metal spout. (Some rabbits will only drink from a bowl though.)
• A large weatherproof home off the ground, out of direct sunlight and strong winds.
• A clean layer of wood shavings and plenty of hay or straw for bedding.
• Daily exercise.
• Rabbits burrow, so ensure the enclosure is sunk into the ground, escape-proof and safe from predators.
• Their home to be cleaned every day and bedding changed weekly.
• A gnawing block to wear down long teeth.
• To be brushed every day if they have a long coat.
• Injections to prevent serious diseases.
• To be taken to a vet if they are ill or injured.
• To be looked after when you are on holiday.
