I'm looking to get adopt two Netherland Dwarf rabbits at some point this year and I want to be totally prepared as far in advance as possible
One question I have is about housing. I plan on keeping my buns indoors, and they'd be in their cages when the house is empty or everyone's sleeping (8 - 16 hours per day spent in cage, rest of the time allowed free run of the house).
What would be a good cage size? Many people recommend dog crates, but they only seem to go up to about 4ft x 2.5ft (unless anyone's seen bigger) and I'm not sure if that's big enough...
Also, do they need a "run" or play-pen area if they're having 8 - 16 hours of time to run free per day? If so, how big should this be?
thanks,
Genevieve
