Indoor Rabbit Cage for your Rabbit

Rabbits can live quite happily indoors and there are indoor rabbit cages designed especially for indoor rabbits.

Litter

Rabbits usually use a particular area of an indoor rabbit cage as a toilet so a corner litter tray is a great idea. To train your rabbit, simply place some soiled shavings in the litter tray.

Wood litter pellets are ideal as they help reduce odour and are highly absorbent. Neutering your rabbits will help to curb their natural tendencies to mark their territory and so may aid litter training.

Gnawing and Chewing.

All rabbits like to gnaw and this can include the wiring in your home. Therefore, if you have a house rabbit it is important that accessible areas are safe and rabbit-proof and that you have an indoor rabbit cage for when you are not around to supervise. Wooden gnawing toys are fun and provide hours of distraction; giant rabbits may even play with toys designed for dogs.

Free Range Rabbits.

Its great to allow your rabbit to roam free, but unless you are prepared to put up with the devastation that some rabbits can cause, the desire for a free range house rabbit should be tempered with the provision of an indoor rabbit cage. Training your rabbit sufficiently and getting your house sufficiently rabbit-proof to give your rabbit free-range around your home is very risky – for your house and the rabbit.

House Rabbits.

Don’t worry about using a large indoor rabbit cage. House rabbits will soon regard the cage as their home, not a prison. Wild rabbits much of their lives underground in very confined warrens. Your pet rabbit won’t mind being living in a pleasant large indoor rabbit cage, build up their freedom gradually.

Hay

All rabbits need hay – it is vital for their digestion and teeth; it also reduces the risk of boredom or behavioural problems. Rabbits and hay means mess, especially indoors; one solution is to put hay inside a cardboard or wooden box and cut a hole the side, your rabbit can hide in the box, eating and digging without littering your lounge.
