What species does a rabbit belong to?
There are many different rabbit species. See the link below for a list of different rabbit species.
All domestic rabbits belong to the European Rabbit species (Oryctolagus cuniculus).
Yes, they can be wonderful pets (Like All Rabbits). However one thing to keep in mind when you are getting one, Netherland Dwarf are the smallest and most skittish of all breeds, meaning that without proper care they can become nasty biters and total hermits. They need extra handling and love each day so that they get used to the affection. Eventually they will become one of the most playful and wonderful little creatures you could ever own.
Two points to make here:
1. Rabbits of all kinds feel most comfortable on the ground, which means for the first while just hang out around them, pet them a little, and be passive.
2. Once your a few weeks into owning your bunny and it is a little more used to you, start picking it up and carrying it each day for 10-20 minutes. They may not like it at first, but with enough repetition they will realize this is a protected and safe place to be.
I'd suggest reading up on how to pick them up, how to feed them, and how to housetrain them as well.
Oh and one final note, if your able to, get a second rabbit
(Both should be fixed of course to prevent spraying)
With a partner the little guy/gal will be much less destructive and much
more happy (Hoppy?)
