Are dwarf bunnies good pets

Answer 1

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?)

Answer 2

Just like any other animal, you have to be careful on what you get. Some Rabbits are very aggressive and bite, those are usually ones that are abused and bred in mills. If you were to get one, I suggest you get a little baby one and raise it to be gentle, give it lots of attention and hold it so it know that humans are okay.

First answer: Travel can be quite stressful for bunnies. Preparing ahead of time will help the trip go smoother, and most bunnies do fine as long as a few precautions are taken.

Second answer: I would say quite a lot of precautions must be taken, if we are talking about long-distance travel.

Supplies include hay and water, accessible at all times. The rabbit may not want to drink when in motion, so make sure to plan quiet, still time for the rabbit to relax every few hours. In the case of long distance, you'll need to bring food pellets and fresh greens along with you, and dishes to eat out of.

As for litter, on short trips you might just put a towel in the carry case and bring an extra towel, if necessary. On long trips, the rabbit should have a litter box of some kind.

Whatever you're travelling in, you have to make sure the rabbit is safe. The rabbit can't just roam around in the back seat of a car. If you come to a sudden stop or hit something, the rabbit will fly around really easily. Also, you don't want the rabbit underfoot. On the other hand, you can't keep the rabbit in a carry case for hours on end. Finding a happy medium between comfort and safety can be difficult. Spend time and money planning this, and finding something that works with whatever you're travelling in.

For long distance travel, the rabbit will need time to run around and exercise daily. You'll need a collapsable playpen, with furniture/toys, and you should plan out locations where you'll be able to set up a pen.

You should have contact information for emergency vets at all points in your trip. If something happens, it's not fair to let your rabbit suffer just because you didn't bother to plan ahead.

So much work!
