I read the comments, thank you all for letting others know before they did these things , I on the other hand am glad i went to the comment section for more information and it saved my rabbits
It's almost like youtube shouldn't have gotten rid of the dislike button. Literally every word of this video is wrong and I have to scroll to the comments to know that.
A hutch should never be recommended. Giving a rabbit a huge space (like a play pen or room) shouldn’t be seen as luxury but rather standard.
Alpha Delle yes 100% my rabbit is free roam xx
They also should have water bowls instead of bottles. I'm so haopy others are caring enough to go out of their way and comment 😆 I don't have a bunny (yet hehe) but I have done a lot of research
Equine Adventures my bunny has both as he likes the bottle too
100% my bun is in a large exercise pen
Thank you!!! A water bottle should not be used either I'm a beginner and I know this
Please do not listen to him! 1 - Hutches are WAY too small for any rabbit to live in
2 - use a water bowl not a bottle as it can cause dehydration
3 - Rabbits are like cats and will bathe themselves and shouldn't be put in water. They have trouble regulating their body temperature so they can go into shock or get hypothermia if they're put into water. If you want actual advice, go watch Lennon The Bunny
Edit: this is months ater thanks for all the likes guys :)
Exactly
Thank u we will get Babby bunny soon am very exited :)✨
@@Kltkat901 can u give me adivice am getting a bunny
@@spookysnack3257 i actually have a bunny shes white
Also, he used a flat nail clippers which will crack their nails
The bar minimum is 4 feet by 4 feet and if theirs 2 bunnys dubble the size and get both spadded/nudered and dont use water bottles use bowls use a lot of hay a lot of hay I mean out the hay in the litter box for more info go to 101 rabbits and lennen the bunny 🖤
Love your name!

hutches are too small for rabbits, i recommend an x pen if you can’t free roam, theyre way less expensive and more spacious for the rabbit. also they don’t need water bottles, water bottles are uncomfortable for them to use because it puts their head in an un natural position, and they’re not very clean. you can just use heavy bowls for their food and water.
If a rabbit is dirty to where they cant clean them selves or if they or older, DO NOT wash them, use a damp cloth ans gently rub the areas that are dirty.
Warm cloth?
never keep your rabbit in a cage or hutch, either free roam, play pen or a bunny room x
I keep telling on my little sister to stop putting our the family rabbit to the box Xp
And she wouldn't listen and she basically does the opposite of what the video says
I have a cat and a dog sooo i keep it in a cage
Oof my bunny is in a cage
I’m getting a rabbit
My pet rabbit has a whole house 😂 she can roam to our living room, or in the ailes, most her favorite place is in the dining area, where her litter box, bowl of water , grass, cabbage, and pellets can be found. She used to lie down besides these as if her personal space 😂. Anyway, I found her relax😂 though sometimes I feared the cat would appear when I accidentally missed to close the door. Love my Rab2 so much, so adorable 😍
One like is for these bunny's getting hurt well get save 💔😭😊
WHY THE HECK IS NO ONE LIKING IMA LIKE =:(
Don't fish likes like that...don't use abused bunnies for likes... that's horrible.
Not gonna give u the attention u want
Okay so if I won't like on your stupid (no offense) comment the Rabbits will get hurt? Don't black mail us for your likes instead say something useful that way I may like your "comment"
I saved a rabbit
Just finished crying 🌚, now my parents are letting me have a bunny 🐇. 🥳
Do you need any rabbit care advice? 😊
@@rowan0331 yeah I’m getting him tomorrow
@@vivian.18x47 Cool! Well, the most important thing is doing your own research. I can give you some basic pieces of information, though!
Enclosure: Rabbits should never be locked up in small cages or hutches! They should have at least 12 sq. inches of floorspace. For a cage, I would recommend either a C&C grid cage or a playpen.
Diet: You can search up how much food you should feed your rabbit, but it basically just depends on the age. Baby rabbits should eat alfalfa hay and alfalfa pellets, but never feed adults alfalfa; it doesn't provide them with the nutrients they need. Your rabbit should always have access to unlimited hay; it helps with digestion and trims down their teeth. To sum up their diet: lots of hay, leafy greens (spring mix), and pellets.
Remember that their teeth never stop growing, so provide them with lots of wooden chew toys! I also highly recommend a water bowl instead of a bottle, because rabbits drink a lot of water each day, and bottles usually gets clogged. Bowls are also easier to clean, and they provide the rabbit with a more natural way of drinking!
Thank you for a reading this, and I hope you take all this information into consider to give your rabbit an amazing life! ❤
Never wash a rabbit it can kill them
Correct
Yes dont drown them either
@@dolphinman9253 as if someone was gonna drown them
@@dolphinman9253 bruh how do you expect showering gonna kill the wabbit
@@dolphinman9253 ofcourse its going to drown it
HE SAID TO BATH THEM OMG DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS GUY
😲 omg did he i didn't watch the whole thing
You are not supposed to bath them they bath themselves
Ya ur just supposed to give them there cage food and water pretty much
Dude y’all dumb af he said if there REALLY DIRTY AND EVEN VETS SAY TO DO IT WHEN THERE REALLY DIRTY...he said don’t Not bath them unless bla bla bla so dude y’all dumb af
It can be dangerous to give your rabbit a bath do not do it.
Also something that may be bigger than an x pen would be the c&a grids which are cheap and may provide a lot more space
Hutches actually are way to small, and are actually more expensive then playpens. Playpens give a great amount of space, but free roaming is SO much better!! Do not recommend any hutch, or cage whatsoever.
Rabbits should use water bowls, and not water bottles because your rabbit can get very dehydrated, and it doesn’t reach your rabbits needs.
Rabbits should NEVER take baths!! Never ever. Baths are so stressful for a rabbit, it could kill them. The only time you should bathe your rabbit is by your vet.
Exactly what l said thank you for understanding that they don't belong in hutches and use water bowls alsow never take your rabbit a shower ♥️♥️
Yes!! Bathing is so, SO stressful for you Rabbit. I’m also very thankful you noticed my comment and you agree!! ❤️
Rabbits actually don’t need baths, as they clean themselves. If there is ever a time you need to touch up their coat, you can use a pet wipe.
Also, if you are comfortable, you can contact me on Amino Chats And Communities, and I could answer your questions there!! I know a lot about rabbits/small animals, and I am an advice giver there. ☺️
You should start a TH-cam channel about rabbits and let me know 🙂
I should!! I will actually keep you updated on that. Thank you so much for the recommendation!!!
i've always wanted to take care of one
I understand, but grieving is just a part of life sometimes!
Use a water bowl not bottle
Water bottles can cause dehydration
Timothy hay for older bunny’s/adult
Alfalfa hay for baby bunny
This is a great informative video! Too many people have misconceptions on rabbit care, it’s really sad.
Not everything they say is right
Monica Mares like what?
@@ThePurpleChan you're not supposed to keep them in a hutch you're supposed to keep them in a larger area like in a room or free room or maybe a playpen
Monica Mares yeah I agree
My little sister does the COMPLETE opposite of what the video says I sometimes feel the stress from watching the family rabbit. =c
Hi! I use to have bunnies 2yrs ago but I got rid of them after a few months cause I felt I wasn’t fit and I shared a room with my lil sis. Anyway we had a 2 story cage for nighttime/while I was gone and they were let out when I was watching. Anyway can people give me advice cause I really want to get a rabbit again 🫶😭
NO HUTCHES OR CAGES.... EVER. Go for an EXPen as a last resort. Many people don't know rabbits are easily litter trained if spayed and neutered. So you can easily free roam them in your bedroom if your a child, or around the house if you have no pets.... and they'll go in a litter box. Look at a TH-cam channel called - LennonTheBunny -for a better understanding. She has all the correct rabbit information and will help you tremendously.
i would like to do that but my parents dont let me bc she bites the walls and pees on my bed :( any advice ?
Y'know all... I think I'm spoiled since I was born.. because everything about pets or things or places or anything I can talk about to my dad.. like I talk about rabbits a second ago he said do you want a rabbit? I didn't answer I just said dad nooo it will die just like my 3 hamsters that's true tho my 3 hamsters died , and he said don't worry and search in yt how to take care of rabbits so you can know and let them live longer that's why I'm here right now 0_0
I just got a baby rabbit this helped out a lot I’m a first timer thank you !!!!

Same brother, my latino mother is gonna castrate me when she sees the rabbit 🧙♂️🕊😂😂😂😂😂😭😵💫
Sameee 🤝
How did it go?? Please tell us how did it go!! What did your parents think?
I am taking care of my friends bunny since his family is going to DC so this helped
These rabbits are so cute
I've been bathing my rabbits but nothing happened to them but ya u have to dry them soon after bathing n keep them in sunlight for few minutes.
I want to ask few things.
1. How I teach them to poop and pee at the same spot ?
2. How to clean their tail? (What to use?)
3. Mosquitos loves the rabbit blood the most and rabbits can die because of them , how to save them when thy aren't in home but outside cage ? ( They are in outside animal barn lets say , so putting mosquito devices won't help and I live near marshland ... so even tho there were going lot of helicopters and cars to spray against mosquitos it's hard to get rid of them).
4. I have a big untrained dog , so he is on leash bc we are scared that it will eat or choke the rabbit ,bud maybe not idk how to put them in the same place and not to bother each other....
If u have big dogs, cats,etc don’t adopt a rabbit… rabbits are predators for them and they can eat them but if u really want to you should give them a separated room and the dog shouldn’t know abt the rabbit and for the poop thing and I really don’t know u can have like a big plastic container and fill it with sand and whenever they poop u put their poop it in the container after that the rabbit will start pooping in the container it takes time for them to adopt it and for the mosquitoes one use a mosquito repellent…
We are taught that we need to take rabbit by it's ears and support their but and they were most cooperative when we carry them this way.
My stepmother is going to give me her newborn rabbits! I'm so excited!
dont listen to this guy some of his tips are terrible for rabbits, check out lennon the bunny to know what to do
please don’t listen to this guy!! check out lennon the bunny, it’s a great account.
@@eyezz0 yo wtf
@@claire3318_ ayo tf bruh
@@Gamuzs They're trying to help you, if you don't know Lennon the Bunny is a girl and her rabbit that makes rabbit care videos, she is really popular among the rabbit community.
I also recommend you check her out, the advice in this video is bad, such as the idea of a cage or hutch (they're too small for rabbits, and keeping rabbits outdoors can be dangerous)
I'm getting a bunny too in a few weeks, good luck with your bunny!
Oh , thx amazing tips
Now i learned new stuff ab my rabbit , moonlight
Actually what they say is wrong
Most anyway is wrong
Aw mine is named midnight ❤
Emie Chan animation please don’t listen to this guy all of this information is wrong i recommend watching lennon the bunny or 101 rabbits
dont listen to this dude!
Good.
you should Never use a water bottle for rabbits they don't get enough water
i just went to the comments cus i wanna do research on rabbits so i can maybe get one but after looking at the comments ill find a new vid
@@beethechange1834 I’ve watched Lennon the bunny and 101 rabbits! I don’t think I’ve heard of Sincerely Cinnabun I’ll have to check it out
Good thinking!
I will be having a hutch. All these people saying hutches aren’t good enough. 9 X out of 10 he will be out of the hutch when I allow him to free roam. Will only be for night time really.
I took an outdoor patio and have an outdoor cabana over it. I had to fence 2 sides. The other 2 sides are the corner of the house. Their is an electric outlet so i can run Christmas lights or a fan or heater if needed. They have a 10x10 area that is covered.
Guys you shouldn't give you're bun a hutch I recommend a pen,room,are free roam if you don't mind your rabbit roaming around your house
My 2 bunnies have there own room😂❤️
I plan to have 2 and put them in laundry room is it ok
@@50TEW as long as they have enough room and the room is bunny-proofed
I’m getting 2 rabbits soon
I loved then since a young age my dad got me a black one are dog ate his leg he passed away now I'm older going to get my first two baby bunnies
Ty u for make ing this video me and my mom want one I need to know a lot about it
they also like to run
🕉 awesome 👌 explanation and guidance thank you 🙏
I will soon get one :) (:
There you go
Wow rabits😮
The first time my rabbit arrives, I already put in the box with sand. I think she's intelligent coz from then, she poop and urine. She knows where, unless she isn't in a bad mood or else she would scatter her poop everywhere. But good she urinate always in the litter box. Rabbit for me can be trained as what I observed with my own rabbit 😊
How do you cook em?
My dad came home with a rabbit and told me I get to be the one to take care of it, now I'm here
Try watching Lennon The Bunny!
Leaving because of the music
I’m getting a bunny and a kitten next month so I’m trying to prepare myself
This video spreads a lot of misinformation. Try watching Lennon The Bunny on TH-cam!
I am getting the rabbit tmr so excited 😊 😆 my mom friend gave it to her
How's your rabbit now?
@@alcasabasgiancarloa.6465 She gave it back, too much work to take care lol
My dad just surprised my little sister with a pair of rabbits. Knowing her, I'll end up taking care of them myself and so here I am. lol. Any more tips other than the ones on the vid?
Don't bathe the bunnies
Watch Lennon the bunny on yt
This is INCORRECT
When people say free roam what does that mean? Like anywhere they want? Or a specialized area for them
Nice rabbit🐇🐰
When im still young i thought i was taking care of a cat but its a rabbit instead. Its meowing for no reason
I obtained a domestic rabbit that was a free wild rabbit for about a year. He's almost died living on the street twice at least. I have him in a play pen and want to take him out to let him run in a bigger dog run I bought him. He lets me pet him but won't let me pick him up to be placed in the dog run. Im thinking I should just pet him more and build more trust??? Suggestions????
These care tips are highly outdated! Please don't keep your rabbit in a hutch, especially one that is only 80cm! Also water bottles have been proven to restrict the amount of water a rabbit can obtain compared to water bowls. But most importantly never, never bathe a rabbit & never shampoo them. Not only could washing them strip away their natural oils in their skin but placing them in water can also send them into shock & kill them.
Going to need a cage because we also have dogs
@@whymeme5841aww defo, just ensure it's a suitable size enclosure. I have bunnies and dogs too, I understand where you're coming from 💕💕
What breeds are the most ideal…
Ty!!!!!! We are getting a bunny!
Try watching Lennon The Bunny! This video spreads misinformation.

Is fly trap a problem for them if so are what ways would you prevent it
Thanks! im getting a rabbit soon....... Edit-no im not sadly but I got 4 birds instead.
don't listen to this guy
How do you clean urine off bunnies because those poles are dirty if you don't clean them a single
How many handfuls of grass a day per bunny?
Is it safe to have a rabbit in a home with a cat if they did not grow up together (from young kitten and young bunny)?
It depends on the animal. I have two cats and a rabbit, all three adopted as adults. The older cat gets along fine with the rabbit, but the other does not. I would never leave a rabbit unattended with any larger animals though.
Yes, and to add to Alex's point, the cat's socialization is also very important. If they are introduced properly and have had a good socialization period then it is possible, but you will always need to keep them supervised.
Thank you both for the insight.
You can try to show them to eachother, but if either of them show any signs of aggression, I recommend housing the rabbit in a separate room!
In getting a rabbit rn!!
I wanted a pet bunny
I need this guide cuz Once I bought a rabbit it was small but it suddenly Died After 2 or 1 week I was sooo sad Now I want to buy another one And I need to take good care of this one
This video spreads misinformation. Try watching Lennon The Bunny!
this makes me sad because i had a dwarf bunny twice and they both died the second died 6 days after adopting them
honeyy_ jessica that’s not normal where did you get them a back yard breeder pet store? If so I don’t recommend getting your pets from those places I recommend trustworthy places or rescuing your pets!
Abbey Mcaffer oh i got mine from a pet shop in colombia for £15 :(
It could've been GI stasis. Please don't listen to this video, I recommend Lennon The Bunny or 101Rabbits for good rabbit info.
Sam Is Trash ohh :( okay
My cousin is going to make a small house with a door that can be closed for her and my rabbits is that okay?
bravo! 🐰
Do a vid of how to find and touch a rabbit/bunny
This video gave out too much misinformation.
Most hutches and cages are Way to small a single rabbit Needs at least 5x5 feet or 150x150cm of space at the minimum! Rabbits can easily be litter box trained and free roam your house as long as you properly bunny proff if you can free roam them then give them their own room or buy 2 x-pens and connect then together (2 x-pens are 4 times bigger then a single x-pen when connected) and make sure it's at least 3 feet or 90cm high.
Never use water bottles they give out too little water at a time use a bowl instead.
I love bunnies cause i love jungkook
I saved a rabbit
Table spoon of beef? 1:41
😂 A tablespoon of 'feed', sorry if that wasn't clear in the audio!
1. Hutches are way to small for rabbits/bunnies even if it is *pet store recommended* (dont take advice from pet stores)
2. water bottles can make them dehydrated, a heavy water bowl is what is best
3. Rabbits shouldnt be showered or bathed whether its *cute* or you just want to *try*. Rabbits are just like cats, they can groom themselves, and be potty trained.
Suggestion: hedgehogs
How much does it costs to buy a rabbit at the pet store?
OMG THANK YOU FOR THE ADVICE!!😃😃😃
@Aspen k well not yet
I don't recommend buying one from the pet store! Try looking into a shelter, or if you have to, a breeder.
I want a rabbit but I’m scared I won’t take good care of it
DON'T LISTEN TO THIS MAN. WATCH LENNON THE BUNNY, 101 RABBITS, AND/OR SINCERELY, CINNABUN. YOUR RABBIT WILL THANK YOU.
That's okay! You should try watching Lennon The Bunny on TH-cam; she gives great advice!
It would be much better with out the annoying music in the back ground ,, thanks for ur effort
I am also convincing my parents
There's a mid-sized rabbit who comes into my backyard almost daily, but I don't know if she or he is getting anything to eat. I hear they'll eat dandelions but my neighbors and I haven't any. Can I catch her and bring her in and take care of her? I'm a little afraid of being bitten, though. I can get the bunny some pellets at the pet store and hay from another source. Will this work or not for her and I? I am concerned also bcs the snows of winter might be here in a couple or 3 months, or so. Thank you!!!
@alexandraasbury9974 I wouldn’t try and capture a wild rabbit. Sometimes they can harbor diseases. If you want a rabbit, you should adopt one at your local shelter or at a pet supply store.
I love your video, I have a beautiful 🐇rabbit it’s a beautiful girl 🤣♥️♥️♥️
Are vaccinations strongly recommended if they're indoors
Rabbits are delicious
thank you for the avice im getting a rabbit soon and i bin trying to find out what our rabbit needs.and again thank you👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
I recommend watching Lennon The Bunny on TH-cam! 👍
i dont understand why a hutch is soooo bad for them? if it’s a big one, and we let them out most part of the day, is this « not enough »?
Ali it is enough in my opinion. I’ve had healthy, happy rabbits for years and I keep mine in hutches. As you said, you do need to make sure you give your rabbit the proper attention
Well, hutches are commonly kept outdoors which is a big issue. They're prey animals and they are frightened easily, so even seeing a predator could give them a heart attack. Not to mention the seasonal temperatures. Rabbits need room to binky and run, and hutches do not provide that space for them. It's just selfish and cruel to stuff them in such a small space. I highly recommend Lennon The Bunny (the youtube channel) for more info.
@@jadaderwald8697 Just because they're healthy does not mean they're happy. You clearly haven't done enough research on owning your rabbit, I highly recommend looking into proper care.
Sam Is Trash I just looked at my comment and realized that I was completely uneducated lol. I’ve done a ton of research since then and my happy bunny is now free rome in my house. Thank you for letting me know though.
@Jada Derwald Awesome! I'm glad your rabbit is happy and healthy now.
When I get a bunny I want to spoil it so much give it the best life ever!
this not true rabbit care if you want your rabbit to live up to 12 years please watch Lennon the bunny or 101Rabbits
I’m going to get a bunny 🐰 🎉
I have a rabbit
Can you keep them outside 24/7 and in the winter or?
Someone please answer!! I’m getting one for my birthday and need to know everything in 3 weeks!! 😘
Yes, you can allow them outside. Rabbits are surprisingly tolerant of the cold since they grow a thicker coat in winter. Keep in mind that temperatures below 20 degrees Fahrenheit may be too cold for them.
@@AnimalWised ok thank you! 😊
Try watching Lennon The Bunny!
Also, I highly don't recommend housing your rabbit outside. Housing your rabbit outside can make them more prone to vulnerability, stress, heatstrokes, shorter lifespans, and more! There's also the risk of it being taken by a predator.
@@rowan0331 thank you this is very interesting. I am going to keep them in my play house but don’t worry it’s getting all rabbit safe and a big fence right round so they have enough space to run around free. We will have lots of toys and blankets for them to exercise with but also to keep warm! We are going into summer so I hope it won’t be too cold or warm for them (I’ve also got lots of hiding spots for them and shade spots) if I gets too cold in the winter then yes I will move them inside for a bit. Thank you 😌
@@aliceanimals Sounds great!
Excellent video Thank you very much 👍 Animal Wised 😆
And then Google says that Rabbits are a low maintenance pet BRUH
Look I do agree with the hutch, as long as the bunny gets out side time it’s fine, ok that it’s not really right to bathe a bunny BUT IF U MUST u can bathe ur bunny ONCE a year if necessary if they’re that Dirty. I do advise watching Lennon the bunny or 101 bunny’s :)
Do Not Listen to This Advice !! Instead..
1) Rabbits should live either in an x pen or free roam a room or home
2) Do not give your rabbit a water bottle, it is far harder to use for them and this makes them very dehydrated. a regular water bowl works great for all rabbits
3) Never bathe your rabbits, they groom themselves and because of their complex fur and skin, they should never be submerged in water. if your rabbit is hot, it is okay to dab their ears with cool water.
Please use these tips instead for they will be much more beneficial !!
