Rabbit Housing

Tuesday, 14 August 2007

Rabbits need a pen that is at least 4 times the length of the rabbit. A dog training folding fence 26 or more inches tall serves as a simple pen. Other people buy large dog cages. House rabbit organizations caution against using a grid floor, as this will cause sore hocks (sores on the bottom of the rabbit’s back feet). Carpet or linoleum can be added to a cage that has a grid floor to protect the rabbit’s feet. Another option for a rabbit cage is a multiple-level condo. The rabbit condo can be made by using cable ties and storage cubes (sample building instructions). This provides the rabbit plenty of jumping options and variety. Basic necessities for the cage include a litter box, water, food bowl, hay, and toys. {mosgoogle 3417249324}
