Rabbit

Rabbits make great family pets and are friendly and affectionate; but as with any pet they are a big commitment and need plenty of care and attention to keep them happy.

Rabbits need your care and attention every day otherwise can get lonely and unfriendly, requiring lots of space to play and exercise in order for them to stay happy and healthy.

They are not used to being on their own so will need a friend, or lots of your love and attention to keep them happy.

Rabbits are naturally very quiet and shy so it may take time before they fully trust you.

Rabbits should be fed a specific rabbit food in either an extruded nugget or muesli mix with plenty of hay for roughage. Your rabbit's diet can be supplemented with fresh fruit and vegetables to offer additional variety to your pet's diet.

Rabbits on average live for 7-10 years.
