What to Consider Before Bringing Home a Rabbit
By Alex Powell
Before your new pet comes home, you'll need to have his essentials lined up. At the very least, rabbits need a good diet, a veterinarian experienced in caring for rabbits and, possibly, a roomy exercise pen. While most rabbits do best when they have free range in the house, unsupervised free range isn't always possible, Davis says, especially if the rabbit is a serious chewer.
Finally, watch out. If you do decide to adopt a rabbit, you may find yourself falling in love. "House rabbits get very close to you," Charland says.
Johnson agrees. "Rabbits are not a pet to adopt because they are 'easy,' but they do make wonderful pets."
