All About Pet Rabbits
Rabbits are called Lagamorphs. LOL!
"Do You Have Food??"
That's One Big Bunny!
Can't Breed?!
They say a mini lop and a Flemish Giant can't breed because of the difference in size.
. . . . That's a Myth!
However, the babies born with more of the mini lop characteristics will die within a few days of birth. So, please, have your rabbits altered.
1 Week, and they all have fur!

Rabbit Pellets
The pellets available at WalMart stores are NOT good for rabbits. They contain very little nutrition and a great deal of fat and filler.

Inside/Outside Duel
Should rabbits be kept outside or inside your home?
Fetching blurbs now... please stand byThey're part of the family. They belong inside.

In inside ur home.. its not fair for a bunny to have to live outside. if u buy them u have to treat them like there one of ur human family members!!

I never would keep mine outside!!! I have a baby bunny named Indy (see his blog at www.squidoo.com/indutherabbit) who is an English Spot mix. He lives indoors and is so affectionate! I wouldn't keep him outside for many reasons but mostly because he would be so lonely! Also check out www.infoaboutpets.com for great pet care info!

I used to have a pair of French Lops, they were inside, in a raised "hutch", which was next to a window, and when the window was open, it acted as a door into a big fenced in yard.

What kind of person would put their rabbit outside!?!?!? That is soooo mean.

Rabbits belong inside. They are living breathing animals. They should be treated the same as people. Thats like people having to stay and live outside.

They're animals. They belong outside.
Shelby says:
I put mine outside because I am allergic to them but you have to be very careful having them out there. I would prefer have them inside but I have no choice.

I used to have a Rabbit, he was outside in Summer & indoors in the Winter. I think he would have chose that option aswell :) he was very happy.

After having a bunny indoors I have to say they belong outdoors in a safe, warm hutch. Never forget your bunny though. With tons of rubs and hugs your bunny can be your bestest pal.

Rabbits should have an outdoor hutch, but also a cage indoors for when the weather is really bad.

Build a Hutch
My Mom Actually Built this Thing in our Living Room!
You don't have to be a carpenter to build a nice rabbit hitch. Home Depot or Lowe's will cut a piece of plywood for a base and shelves, to your specifications. Buy some casters that you can attach to the bottom with screws, so you will be able to move the hutch easily. Drill holes in the plywood base every 12 inches. You can attach a piece of linoleum to the base to make it easy to clean.WalMart, K-Mart, and Target carry square metal grids for making storage cubes. You can use them to create the sides and top of your hutch. Most are 14" squares, so make sure you figure out how many packages you'll need for the size you want. Get heavy duty zip ties for connecting the grids. You'll need at least 100.
You will need wooden dowels to stabilize the sides. They will be attached with zip ties at each grid joint. You will also want to attach them on the top to keep the grids on top from sagging. You can put a narrow piece of plywood on the top for rabbit supplies. I put houseplants on mine, so my rabbits have natural greenery around them.
Rabbits like to go up and down, perch, and have places to hide. You can add shelves that are covered with carpet or tile by drilling holes in the wood and attaching it with zip ties. You will need a piece of plywood installed vertically to support the shelves. Use corner brackets to attach the verticle board to the base and the shelves.
My rabbits have a tunnel on the first shelf. I used extra boards and corner brackets to create it.
The hutch should be big enough to put a litter box on the bottom and have food and water a good distance away from it. You can put a cardboard box in the hutch in different locations. Your rabbit(s) will hide in it, chew on it, and tear it up. They love that!
Don't forget a door! Leave 2 verticle grid patterns unattached on the top and bottom. You can easily secure the door with twist ties.
The size of the hutch is up to you. This design concept is very flexible. The one I built is 5 grids long, 2 grids wide, and 3 grids high. I put 8 casters on the bottom, so I can roll it outside every so often to hose it down. My Flemish Giant and Holland Lop have room to run, jump, dig, and get some personal space.
It took me 2 days to build the hutch, mostly because I made mistakes that had to be undone. If you know exactly what you need and how you want to build your hutch, you can do it in one day.

Rabbits love to eat, but not everything they like is good for them. Alfalfa hay is good for babies, but only rarely for adult bunnies. Rabbits go nuts for spinach, but they should not eat it very often. Celery is popular with rabbits, mostly for the leaves, but the stalks contain fibers that are difficult to digest. They can bind a bunny up.Everyone knows that bunnies love carrots, but did you know that a daily dose of carrots will make a bunny fat? Limit carrots to once a week.
Bunnies need a variety of greens. Parsley is a favorite, but also give different kinds of lettuce. Just don't give your bunny regular head lettuce or cabbage. Try green leaf lettuce, romaine, and kale. Rabbits love broccoli, but give in moderation.
Many people don't realize that rabbits like fruit. Apples, plums, peaches, strawberries, and grapes are all popular with rabbits. Fruit should only be given as an occasional treat.
Be sure to give your bunny some clean wood to chew on. Rabbit teeth grow continuously. Chewing on something hard keeps the teeth ground down. Cut tree branches are great, as well as twigs, but a small block of wood will do. Just make absolutely certain that the wood you give is not poisonous to rabbits.

Bunny Love
A lone female rabbit who reaches maturity without having kits may exhibit nesting behaviors. This is a great time to introduce a young rabbit that has been weaned.
The young rabbit will appreciate the surrogate mother and the mature female will nurture the young one, satisfying her maternal needs.
