What temperature is suitable for a rabbit?

Answer 1

RabbitBetween 101 and 103 degrees Fahrenheit / 38.3 and 39.4 degrees Celsius.

If a rabbit's temperature is less than 100F (37.7C) or higher than 105F (40.5C), this is an emergency and your rabbit requires immediate veterinary attention.

Answer 2

The body temperature of a rabbit can differ by several degrees, both between different individuals and by time of day in a specific rabbit. Generally a "normal" temperature range falls between 100.5 and 103.5 degrees Fahrenheit. If your rabbit is stressed the temperature may be slightly elevated, and may also run slightly higher in the evening hours when bunny tends to be a little more active.

A rabbit's temperature is taken with a rectal thermometer: oral and ear thermometers don't work. Ask your vet to teach you how to take your rabbit's temperature; if you don't know what you're doing you could seriously injure your bunny.

If a rabbit's temperature is less than 100F (37.7C) or higher than 105F (40.5C), this is an emergency and your rabbit requires immediate veterinary attention. Begin first aid immediately, for the trip to the vet's. For hypothermia (low temperatures), this means placing the rabbit on a hot water bottle or hot pack, but put a towel between them so the rabbit doesn't burn. For hyperthermia (high temperatures), this means using cold packs, frozen vegetables, ice cubes, but make sure to avoid frostbite. Swabbing rubbing alcohol on the ears can also help to cool the bunny down.

Air Temperature/Weather

Domestic rabbits are most comfortable between 50-75F (10-23C). If your rabbit lives inside, and you have air conditioning and heating, keep it between these temperatures. If your rabbit lives outside, you might need to take special measures to make sure your rabbit stays safe. Rabbits also must be protected from wet and windy weather (even if it's not that cold).

Under 50F (10C), rabbits need to be are able to warm up when they need to. For example, provide a secure shelter from breezes and precipitation where the rabbits can freely go when they get a little chilly, with a "nest" box with dry bedding where they can snuggle and warm up. Under 40F (5C), rabbits needs indoor shelter with artificial heating.

Over 78F (25C), you must make sure the rabbit won't overheat. For example:

- Provide air conditioning

- Chill ceramic or stone tiles in the freezer for the rabbit to lie on

- Freeze a block of ice in a jug and set it down near the rabbit -- even if the rabbit doesn't want to lay against it, it will cool the air as it evaporates

- Drape a cold wet towel near the rabbit and aim a fan at the towel -- a fan alone doesn't much help rabbits because they don't really sweat, but the fan aimed at the towel will cool the nearby air as the water evaporates

- Mist the rabbit's ears with cold water

- Provide lots of cold water to drink

- Maximize air flow and shade in the area

Body Temperature

A rabbit's rectal temperature should be between 101.3-104F (38.5-40C). If the rabbit's temperature is higher or lower than this, immediate veterinary care is necessary.

Answer 4

First answer: i would guess room temperature because my grandfather has like 30 and he keeps them in a house he made for them.

THE FACTS (see sources below)

Domestic rabbits are most comfortable between 50-75F (10-23C).

Temperatures over 78F (25C) can be life-threatening, because the rabbit can get heat stroke. When it gets this hot, you need to make sure your hutch (or cage, habitat, etc.) has good air flow and shade, and your bunny always has access to fresh, cold water to drink. If it gets any hotter than 78F (25C), you must provide air conditioning. If air conditioning is impossible, consider these alternatives:

• Chill ceramic or stone tiles in the freezer for the rabbit to lie on
• Freeze a block of ice in a jug and set it down near the rabbit - even if the rabbit doesn't want to lay against it, it will cool the air as it evaporates; try putting it inside an old t-shirt, because then your rabbit might lie right up against it
• Drape a cold wet towel near the rabbit and aim a fan at the towel - a fan alone doesn't much help rabbits because they don't really sweat, but the fan aimed at the towel will cool the nearby air as the water evaporates
• Mist the rabbit's ears with cold water

Temperatures under 50F (10C) can be life-threatening, because the rabbit can get frost-bite and hypothermia. When it gets this cold, you need to provide your rabbit with a snuggle box and bedding, completely dry and completely protected from winds and breezes, so the rabbit can snuggle in and conserve body heat. If the temperature goes below 40F (5C), you need to provide artificial heating for your rabbit.

Make sure you know the signs and symptoms of heat stroke and hypothermia. If you notice your rabbit isn't well, go to a vet immediately. See the related questions below for details and links.

Answer 5

A rabbit's rectal temperature should be between 99-104F (37.2-40C). If the rabbit's temperature is higher or lower than this, immediate veterinary care is necessary. It's a good idea to keep a thermometer in your first aid kit and ask your vet to show you how to use it, because this is a clear way to tell if your rabbit is sick.
