*4 REASONS WHY RABBITS MAKE GREAT PETS*
Rabbits are a popular pet, but not everyone understands the appeal. The fact is, rabbits are wonderful companions and additions to your family.
*1. Rabbits have their own personalities*
People sometimes think of rabbits as boring, but that is far from true. Each rabbit has its own personality. Some are playful, others come across as more mischievous. Your rabbit may be clingy or fiercely independent. Some rabbits absolutely can’t get enough of playing with toys, others turn their nose up to them. Be prepared to learn about your new rabbit and their preferences. You will likely be entertained by their antics!
*2. *Rabbits are great companions**
Once bonded with a human, a rabbit will show signs of enthusiasm when they see them. Your pet rabbit may enjoy doing things like watching TV with you or playing with empty paper towel rolls. As long as you understand the preferences and limits of your rabbit, the two of you can have a great time.
**3. Rabbits are child-friendly*
There is no doubt that rabbits can make fantastic pets, but they are not well-suited for every family. Due to their preference for a calm and quiet environment, they are best kept away from small children. For an older child, however, a rabbit can be the ideal pet. Just be sure to train them on how to properly handle and care for their pet. Until you are confident they know how to handle the rabbit, supervise them closely while they are interacting. Having a pet rabbit can offer a good level of responsibility for a pr***en or teenager.
*4. They get along well with other pets*
Whether or not your cats or dogs can get along with a rabbit will depend largely on the temperament of all the animals involved. While sometimes these types of critters can become lifelong friends, a hyper dog or especially predatory cat may not make a good roommate for a rabbit. If you do decide to introduce a rabbit to your cat and/or dog, do so slowly.
