I don't have a/pair of bunnies at all yet but keep thinking about it. One of my friends(current bunny count 14) keeps offering me darling rescue buns! And I hate saying no, but I'm not sure I'm ready for them.
I know there are things I won't have thought of, that will happen to me! (I have had rats for 2 years and know just about everything that could possibly happen, and seems to on a regular basis :roll: )
I am aware of both vaccines twice a year, aware of the basic diet they require and have ordered the rabbit nutrition book from RWAF website I am aware of space(6x2 hutch plus 6x4 or newly RWAF suggested 8x4 run) Or similar indoor free-roam space.
But all this only seems like the basics, really. What is likely to happen that I won't have anticipated? I will almost definately get insurance as I not really be able to cover any emergency vet bills that come up. Could probably do so at a push but would be more comfortable paying insurance(about £8-10 a month?).
So! I suppose what I am asking is, what should I expect from the average house rabbit? I believe I could make a house bun very happy but I worry, and I know its a big commitment! Also how much destruction am I looking at and can I rabbit proof a sofa? :lol: (rabbit+rented(furnished) accomodation don't exactly mix I don't think!)
ETA: photos of rabbit destruction welcome :lol:
