What Rabbit?
Hi peeps

I have never ever owned a rabbit before but I have always wanted them - I think they are gorgeous.

In a few months time I am moving to a property that will have a big enough garden to accomodate my expanding menagerie

I have two dogs, two cats and young children.

WHat would be a good first time rabbit for some one like us?

thank you

Re: What Rabbit?
You could go to a shelter and get a pair of neutered/spayed rabbits. The shelter could tell you what their personalities are like. If you get rabbits who are over one year old then they will have passed their stroppy 'teenage years' and that can make life easier. A lone rabbit can get very lonely and depressed and once you've seen two rabbits cuddling and grooming each other you wouldn't want to keep one on its own. Good luck

Thank you - that is good advise.

Are you able to keep rabbits with other animals?

Re: What Rabbit?
I think that rabbits can get on well with cats in certain circumstances. Definitely don't keep them with guinea pigs (although some people do).

Here's a Netherland Dwarf... though I'm not sure I'd get one - my cousin has one and it's the nastiest little thing I've ever met! He's possessed! lol

Maybe he's a one off though lol
