A cage that is big enough to have a run to hide in, an area for feed, an area to sleep, etc. I had a dwarf rabbit, and i bought him a cage with two floors because I wanted to take extra special care as he was my first rabbit. But this is not necessary.

A one floored cage is fine. Just make sure it has two compartments. One where he sleeps, and one where he has his food and runs a bit. But have a wire mesh, or build a small run out of wire so that he can run around in the garden. If you have a garden where you are 100% sure that he can't get out then let him out.

BUT If you do this then keep an eye on him, because other animals could enter. This is why I would rather strongly recommend a little run which is good enough that the rabbit can't get out and other animals can't get in, and then with this you won't have to have a close eye on him. :)

What do you need when you go and buy your bunny's cage?

You need a big, tall cage, big enough so that the rabbit doesn't look or feel cramped up, and tall enough that the rabbit can stand up on his hind legs and not be bothered by the cage ceiling. Also, it's better to get a cage which is not grilled (which might cause sore hocks for the rabbit's feet), but a cage with a proper, flat floor. Also remember the extra space needed for the poo tray. Get a water bottle which can hook onto the cage.

2 guinea pigs = 2x5 c&c cage which is 30" by 62" a dwarf rabbit= 2x4 which is 30" by 50" so in total you should just make a 2x10 c&c cage feeding time may be difficult because they need different food. -kiley


What size is a rabbit cage?

The actual size depends on how big your rabbit is and how big the supplies are. The cage must be big enough to fit all of the rabbit's supplies with enough room left over for the rabbit to strand all the way up, stretch out to full length, and hop a few paces at least.

What do you need for a rabbit that is going to give birth?

Make sure the cage is clean. Also, provide a small hide away in the cage to give birth. If your rabbit lives in a hutch, you won't need this hide away. Most importantly, cover the cage with a blanket when the doe is giving birth.

What is the difference between a rabbit cage and a rabbit playpen?

A rabbit playpen would have more room for the rabbit to run around. A cage is limited in space. It's important that a rabbit get a couple of hours of exercise each day. If you have a cage, it's good to get one with a rabbit door, so the rabbit can jump in and out on its own. You can then surround the cage with a play pen, if you want.
