⭐️Rabbits need a minimum of 60sq foot of space, at ALL times⭐️

“Our The Rabbit Welfare Association and Fund recommended living area for 2 average sized rabbits (and they should be kept at least in pairs) is a single enclosed area of at least 3m x 2m by 1m high.

⭐️This can include the sleeping quarters, and makes up a footprint (accessible area of the ground or floor) of 3m x 2m.

⭐️It’s important for the rabbits that this 3m x 2m footprint is in a single block of space because it allows them to display positive behaviours, for example, to run rather than just hop.

⭐️The upper floor of a two-storey hutch does NOT count towards the footprint. Similarly, whilst raised platforms, tunnels and other connected areas are great for enrichment and are actively encouraged, they do not count towards the footprint.

⭐️Please note that the 3m length is important as this allows the rabbits to run and not just take a few hops. We sometimes see 60sq ft of space being referred to as the minimum guideline, but this does not always meet the minimum guidelines, for example 8ft x 8ft would be 64ft, but there is not a 3m length in that set up.⭐️

How handsome is our boy Sweep? 😍
Sweep is a gentle and friendly rabbit who came to us as a stray. He just needs a little time to build up trust in you to come out of his shell. He loves the comfort of his wooden hut, where he feels safe, but he’s always curious to see who’s visiting—especially if there’s are treat involved!

With patience and kindness, Sweep will build up his confidence and eventually enjoy head strokes from those he trusts.

Sweep is looking for a neutered female rabbit to be bonded with.

Husbun and wifebun 💛 bonding beautifully.

Another succesful bond - Shadow and Galaxy, two adult boars 🥰

A lot of people shy away from bonding adult boars (male guinea pigs) however I've found them to be wonderful provided their living situation is suitable. I've even had success with bachelor groups - though they need a lot of dedication, the right personalities and a LOT of space.

Handling Rabbits…

Rabbits are a prey species and feel most comfortable on the ground. In the wild the only time they would be picked up would be if they were about to become a predator’s dinner so we can forgive them for being uncomfortable with it - poor buns.

So when we need to examine their bottoms, cut nails, groom, give medicines or tend to any injuries, it’s important we handle rabbits in a way that won’t frighten or injure them. This means…

❌ No scruffing, No Trancing & NEVER lift them by their ears ❌

There is tons of information on how to correctly handle buns in our care booklet.
