Should I Get A Pet Bunny?
Is a Pet Bunny the Right Choice for You?
Let’s take a look and see if a pet bunny would be a good fit for you and your family. Rabbits can make wonderful pets; they are highly intelligent, entertaining, and can offer companionship for many years. It’s 2023 and the pet rabbits are gaining a lot of attention thanks to social media platforms. I’ve seen more information on rabbits on the internet in the last 2-3 years than I have in my entire life. Rabbits were thought to be outdoor pets back in the day, however, we now know domesticated pet rabbits like Holland Lops or Mini Lops are better kept indoors. For quite some time, and even now, rabbits are frequently misunderstood, and a lot of people underestimate the responsibilities associated with their care. This often results in numerous pet rabbits ending up in animal shelters every year.
Before deciding to bring a rabbit into your home, consider these important questions to determine if you are ready to provide a forever home for a rabbit:
- Housing: Will my bunny be indoors away from the excessive heat and cold?
- Learning: Am I willing to learn and teach my family about our new bunny?
- Bunny-Proofing: Am I ready to bunny-proof my home or the designated bunny area?
- Time Commitment: Am I prepared to dedicate my time to love, play, clean, and take care of a bunny?
- Space: Do I have enough space to for a pet rabbit to run, play, and exercise?
- Safety: Will I take precautionary measures to keep my bunny out of harms way if I have other pets?
- Money: Can I provide my bunny with all it’s needs including food, toys, vet care, litter/bedding?
If you answered ‘Yes’ to these questions, then you are well-prepared to consider adopting a rabbit. You can adopt a baby bunny rabbit from Happily Ever After Rabbitry by exploring our available bunnies. It’s important to note that we have a policy of taking back any rabbits we have bred in case of life emergencies. We strongly discourage releasing domesticated bunnies into the wild, as they may not survive, and we are committed to assisting in rehoming if needed, even if you are located far away.
Rabbits are highly social animals, and they tend to lead happier lives when they have a companion. While it is possible to have just one rabbit, your bunny’s overall well-being will greatly benefit from the companionship of another rabbit.
