Are Rabbits Easy To Take Care Of?


Answers:
Not really. They're harder to take care of than cats, sometimes as much work as a dog. They're not the low-maintenance pets people assume they are, which means many wind up in shelters only a few months later.
This site has lots of info on taking care of rabbits!

Yes and no, try not to get more then one at first or you'll have baby rabbits everywhere. Also get a rabbit cage and not another cage, this why thier droppings full to a removable tray and not stay and pile up where your rabbit sleep and hop.
I thought our rabbit was easy to take care of. We trained him to poop in a pan with kitty litter and cleaned it out once a week. We had a ramp that led to the floor from his cage so he could get out and play. We bought him good veggies and rolled oats that we supplemented the rabbit food with. He was our guard bunny - when something strange was going on outside at night he would thump and let us know there was a problem.
Not at all. They are very high maintenance.
My boyfriend and I "babysat" his sister's rabbit for about 6 months. You have to feed them EVERYDAY, they like to chew on things they shouldn't (even if you buy them things to chew on), they shed a lot, and they go to the bathroom a lot. If you potty train them to go in a litter box, they are easier to clean up after...but you have to do it often or it will get stinky.
If you don't mind a lot of maintaining, than go for it. But, if you are looking for a pet that's a little easier to take care of I wouldn't recommend a bunny even though they are really adorable!
i wouldnt call it "easy"
Rabbits aren't easy, but they aren't hard to take care of. I have over 50 rabbits and don't consider them high maintence. You have to feed and water them daily, but don't give them lettuce or anything to green or it could give them diahrea. If you have a tray underneath them you should probably dump it at least once a week or before it gets to full, or if you have a hutch with no tray then you don't have to clean them out as often but you still have to clean them out enough to keep it from smelling or getting to dirty. I don't think there much more work then cats because you have to feed and water them daily and if their house cats you have to change the litter box too.
Rabbits make great pets, even if it's a little work, but their worth it all in the end!!
they are in a way. i like them though because they pay you back with love. i would get one if i was yu then if i liked it i would get another
Yes. Here's what you've got to do. clean the cage every other day, feed it, change out the water when it is getting old or when it's getting low, and then make sure it has something to chew on.
