Rabbits are fantastic companions; if cared for properly, and will prosper if you keep him/her healthy. This article will guide you through, step by step how to keep a rabbit healthy. Get started at step one below.
Read up on how to feed a rabbit. Feed your rabbit a timothy-based pellet (Oxbow or Nature's Promise are great), with no colorful pieces, along with timothy hay (even for young rabbits as alfalfa has too much calcium and can cause a urinary tract infection or U.T.I.) free choice. Make sure your rabbit is eating the hay, and is not eating too much of the pellet portion. Don't feed your rabbit fruits or veggies before they are at least 3 months, and even then, slowly introduce them.
Use a recycled paper bedding, such as Sunseed Bedding, but be careful. The bedding with larger pieces can cause harm to the rabbit because it can block the intestines. Change the cage at least once a week, and do spot cleaning when needed. Try to litter train your rabbit,as the cage would need to be changed less frequently.
Consider giving your rabbit a hut where he or she can feel safe and secure. Place a box or a tunnel so the rabbits can hide but make sure that the tunnel or the box is secure to rain and heat. and make sure that your rabbits can get out of the box or the tunnel.
Take you rabbit out of it's cage to run in the house or in a room. Do this at least once everyday.
If you follow this guide you will have a healthy, happy rabbit, and a wonderful companion.
