newbie

Hello,

I'm hoping to adopt a pair of rescue rabbits, first I'm looking into all the different things I need to do before trying to find them. Only problem is, although I regularly care for my neighbour's rabbit I haven't owned a rabbit before. I was wondering what size hutch and run I would need, specifically whether I would need a double hutch or a large single. Do paired rabbits tend to sleep in the same compartment or do they need a double with stairs joining the two?

Thanks for your help, Claire

Welcome Claire

What sort of space have you got available for these buns? Could you use a small shed with an attatched run? Or would you want a run with an attatched hutch or a separate hutch. There are many options and some are more adaptable and not as expensive as other options.
