This :thumb:It's the individual rabbit's personality not breed that counts really; I've had two rabbits from the same litter with two different personalities and two different ways in how they wanted to react/interact with me. All my rabbits are individuals so I just let them be them and accept however much (in)attention they want to give me. I'm lucky that my current lot like mugging me for food so say hello every time I open the back door but I don't push past what they are comfortable with unless I absolutely have to.
Rabbits are prey animals and aren't that keen on handling so if you're looking for a family pet I'd suggest going to a rescue and asking if they've got suitable adult rabbits for your situation so their personalities and preferences are already known.
That's great, thanks! I'd heard that the smaller the breed the less suitable they are for children, but then the bigger the rabbit the harder they are for children to hold in their arms...
I'm a big fan of Dutch rabbits so I'll look out for two already bonded in a rescue. We're in no rush to get rabbits, I just want to get the right ones... Thank you again for your advice.
