What Will My Rabbit Need?
As well as purchasing your rabbit the right food and providing them with loving care, your pet will also need a high quality rabbit hutch. You should first identify whether or not you plan on keeping the rabbit inside or outside, as this should ultimately determine the style of rabbit hutch you require. Here at Ideas-4-Pets we can provide you with rabbit hutches which are available in various styles, such as single floor hutches, double hutches and extra large rabbit housing.

Large rabbit hutches can provide your rabbit with a resting area, as well as a rabbit run which allows them to explore their hutch and exercise in a large space. Double hutches allow larger rabbits to live in a comfortable space with no chance of them escaping as the hutch can be securely locked.

Hamster Cages
As well as rabbit hutches, we also offer a fantastic range of hamster cages which are available in various sizes and styles. Our hamster cages with double floors also allow the hamsters to increase their fitness levels, so they are sure to live a happy and healthy life.

If you are considering keeping your rabbit outside, then bear in mind the risks involved. Not only can it be lonely for him or her, but there are potential dangers including predatory animals and bad weather conditions. This is the reason why hutches are elevated off the ground. If you are thinking of keeping your rabbit outside, then try to place the outdoor rabbit hutch somewhere sheltered, or even in a garage.

If you are keeping your pet rabbit outside, then the bunny house can be larger and involve different compartments and runs to keep your rabbit entertained. Rabbits like to explore and have different ‘rooms’ for different activities, just like the rest of your family. Rabbit runs are also great because they allow the rabbit to feel like they’re back in nature, while remaining safe at the same time.

Rabbits like to keep clean, so whatever option you choose for your pet, make sure that you are going to have enough time to clean it regularly as well.

Variety
A good rabbit hutch should include several different compartments so that your pet can have separate areas for playing, eating and sleeping. Larger, split-level hutches are a great option as they provide extra areas to explore and keep rabbits healthy by encouraging them to jump and hop between levels.

Protection
It is important that your rabbit’s hutch is at least three feet above the ground to ensure protection from harmful predators such as foxes. Naturally, robust construction materials and good quality door holders and locks are also necessary in making sure your pet comes to no harm.

Whether you need dog guards for an over-enthusiastic Labrador or a vivarium for an under-enthusiastic salamander, Ideas-4-pets has got it covered. With VAT and delivery included on all purchases, buying pet products has never been so easy.

Size
Size is incredibly important when buying a hutch. A good way to estimate the minimum size of hutch needed for your rabbit is to see how long your pet is when it relaxes and stretches its front legs forward and back legs behind; the hutch you select will need to accommodate this length, along with ample space in reserve. Height wise, a hutch needs to be high enough so that your rabbit’s ears will not touch the roof when it is on its hind legs.

Conditions
Any hutch you buy should be weather-proof and on a raised platform. This is to ensure your rabbit‘s comfort and to protect them from predators. A good hutch will have a separate sleeping area so that your pet has somewhere warm to go at night, as well as somewhere to take shade from the sun. For best results, the place where you will choose to site the hutch should be in a sheltered area to help keep out the worst of any bad weather.

Also, you must make sure you feed the animals a diet that is recommended by experts, rather than simply guessing or relying on information that could be flawed. When these delightful, floppy eared creatures are fed improperly, they can develop a range of health problems, with mouth diseases a common issue.

The first thing to bear in mind is that such pets need to consume at least their own body size in hay each day and they should also be given a handful of fresh vegetables in the morning and evening. Meanwhile, it is advisable to provide them with a tablespoon of commercial rabbit nuggets once a day, or twice if the animal weighs more than 3.5kg.

Among the greens recommended by vets and other such experts are basil, cabbage, broccoli, green beams, kale, parsley, spinach and watercress. On the other hand, elder poppies, foxglove, oak leaves, privet, ragwort and rhubarb leaves are not advisable.

Pet rabbit care is an easy to follow routine:

Feed your pet rabbit good quality rabbit food. You can add a few bits of celery, broccoli or curly kale to their rabbit bowl as a treat. Do not give them too much lettuce as it can result in an upset stomach.

A rabbit hutch needs to be large enough for your pet to stand up with his or her ears pointed. It has to have enough room for him to lie down in a comfortable manner.

There should be more than one room in the hutch so your pet rabbit can have a sleeping area as well as a living area.
