Bunnies are not easy pets

Some people put bunnies in the same category as hamsters, mice & gerbils. But having a pet rabbit is far more time consuming and expensive.

Bunnies make a great pet but require a great deal of attention and care.

 If you want a pet that can be kept in a cage or outside in a hutch [don't buy a bunny]
 Pet rabbits belong in the home. They need plenty of exercise and a comfortable temperature.

Don't buy a rabbit from a pet store, ADOPT one from a shelter. (despite the stigma attached to rescue pets, my bunny was adopted and is very loving (I've had him for years and he has NEVER not once bitten anyone) he is very sweet.

Bunnies love to chew and will chew anything and everything. so make sure all wires are out of reach. Ive lost cell phone chargers, laptop chargers and printer wires thanks to bunz. :)


Bunnies are expensive! between expanding cages, food, vets, toys, treats etc pet rabbits are not cheap.

playing on pillows

Bunz favorite thing to do is play with fuzzy pillows, he loves to jump, chew, groom, and bounce on them. So i bought him a few, just for him to play with. He will spend ages playing on them, then just fall asleep laying on them...soo cute!

chin rubbing

Bunz loves to go around my house and rub the underneath of his chin on every single thing he sees. At first i had no clue why he was doing it, but after a bit of research it turns out bunnies do this to mark there territory. They have scent glands under their chins, and they want to mark everything to claim ownership.
