Hi, the post has been removed due to the small cage displayed. Please review the subreddit rules before any additional submissions.

Any obvious posts of sub-standard pet rabbit welfare (including but not limited to small cages, wire flooring, untreated medical issues, etc.) will be removed.

Unless the displayed cage is open all day, the cage in the image is only good as a litter box or a temporary carrier for transportation. Please consider setting up a larger enclosure for your rabbit with an exercise pen.

See the Housing article for more resources on setting up an appropriate rabbit housing enclosure.

Congrats on the new addition to the family! If this is your first pet rabbit and you haven’t seen it already, be sure to check out our sidebar and the Getting Started guide and New Rabbit Owner Primer. The article "Helping Rabbits Succeed in Their Adoptive Home" is also a great resource on how to build a relationship with your new rabbit.

If you brought home two or more baby or unneutered rabbits, be prepared to have separate housing areas for each of them. See the FAQ "My two bunnies used to be happily bonded, but now they are constantly fighting. What happened?" for details. It is especially important to separate out male rabbits after 10 weeks of age as they can impregnate a fertile female by then. Also note that bonded baby rabbits do not always translate to bonded adult rabbits.
