Hop to It! - Rabbits Make Great Pets
Want a great pet that's cute, cuddly and won't grow from a cute
little ball of fur to a 100 pound beast?
Then consider a rabbit!
Here are just a few reasons why you should consider a rabbit for
a pet.
1) Plenty of choices
There are 45 different breeds of rabbits recognized by the
American Rabbit Breeders Association (ARBA).
Do you want a small rabbit? Consider a Netherland Dwarf, Polish
or Jersey Wooly.
Do you want a large rabbit? Then choose a Flemish Giant that can
weigh up to 20 pounds.
Are you attracted to the “lop” eared rabbits? The Holland Lop is
a popular choice because of its smaller size, but you can also
choose from a Mini Lop, French Lop, American Fuzzy Lop or even an
English Lop. An English Lop's ears can be up to 24 inches long.
Are you picky about color? Rabbits come in a variety of colors.
You can undoubtedly find one or more colors that will appeal to
your tastes!
Do you want a rabbit with a lot of fur? Then choose one of the
Angora breeds, or a Jersey Wooly. But be prepared to spend extra
time grooming the rabbit!
So the choices are endless, and for many of us, the choices are
hard. Like the potato chip commercial says, “You can't choose
just one”!
2) Rabbits are quiet
It's guaranteed: You'll never have neighbors calling you to quiet
down your rabbit. It just won't happen.
3) Rabbits can live indoors or outdoors
Obviously, there are rabbits that live in the wild, but they can
adapt to living inside as well.
If you keep rabbits outside, you need to make sure they have
adequate shelter and are well-protected from predators. These
include the neighborhood dogs and cats that may wander through
your yard.
They need to be protected from the elements and have plenty of
ventilation. When hot weather comes, you need to take special
measures to keep your rabbit safe because hot weather bothers
them more than cold weather.
Many people keep their rabbits inside, and that's fine as well.
If you keep your rabbit inside, you'll need to spend some time
preparing your home for your new friend.
Be sure to keep electrical wires away from your rabbit. Rabbits
love to chew, and those wires are tempting...and lethal.
Rabbits can be litter box trained, and are very clean animals. So
feel free to keep them inside if this is what you want to do.
4) Rabbits are fun to have around
Just watching them play in their cages is great fun, but let them
out, hold them and pet them, and you'll be hooked!
5) Rabbits are extremely cute
Have you ever seen an ugly rabbit?
With rabbits, the babies are very cute and adorable, and they
stay cute and adorable when they grow up.
Now I like dogs, but so many of them are cute as puppies, then
grow into huge ugly dogs.
That won't happen with rabbits. They'll stay cute their whole
life.
6) They can be low cost to keep
Rabbits are a low cost pet. Shots at the vet are unnecessary and
you can easily take care of your rabbit yourself. If you care for
your rabbit correctly, there will be no need to visit a vet at
all.
So, pick out a rabbit for your very own to take home and love
today!
