Gone are the days when it was suitable to keep a rabbit in a small hutch. We now understand their needs far better and realise that pairing rabbits with a friend in the right way can make them much happier. It’s also important to give them the space they need to exhibit normal behaviour.
Rabbits are prey animals which means they can easily become anxious or feel the need to run away if they are not comfortable. Just like dogs and cats, give them the space to get away and hide if they need to.
Rabbits are inquisitive, playful and very intelligent animals, and a mentally stimulated rabbit is a happy rabbit, and a happy rabbit is usually a healthy rabbit. This is why enrichment for your rabbit is a necessity. A variety of toys that make your rabbit pick things up, crawl into and over items, and use their brain to get to treats hidden inside, are easy and fun ways to provide enrichment opportunities.
