Do's and Don'ts for Rabbit Care

Do's

You should always:

- Give your rabbit a toy to keep her/him occupied

- Let her/him have time to run around every once in a while

- Clean her/his cage at least 2-3 times a week, or whenever it needs it

- Clip your rabbits nails monthly

- Give you bunny something to chew on, which diverts your bunnys chewing habits from that expensive new couch you got last month :)

- And always Give you rabbit lots of love!!!

Don'ts

- Don't try to fully bathe your rabbit

- Don't chase your rabbit (to catch her/him) after letting your bunny out

- Don't hold your rabbit in an incorrect manner (they are very delicate creatures)

- Don't give your rabbit greens that aren't fresh

- Don't feed him/her a strictly kibble (or vegetable) diet or give him/her a sudden change in diet

- Don't neglect to give your rabbit a constant supply of fresh water and hay, which is important for their digestive system

- Don't strike or shout at your rabbit if he/she has misbehaved, rabbits don't understand this kind of punishment

- And don't ever go a day with out cuddling with your bunny and spending quality time with him/her for a lasting companionship!
