Because of their character rabbits fit well in houses with other pets, as they can get along with cats and dogs. Rabbits’ average life expectancy is about 10 years.
Rabbits that are living in indoor cages, instead of outdoor cages, are more social and better protected from predators and infections. Rabbits are curious and love to chew on anything that looks interesting –so it is important that if you leave your rabbit free in your home to keep a close eye on it, in order to avoid bytes on electrical cords or toxic household plants.
