Beau: The Gentle Giant – Flemish Giant Rabbit
By: Claire Reid
My name is Claire I am 23 years old and I have a Giant Flemish house rabbit named Beau. He is more of a dog than a rabbit, being that he is bigger than a domesticated house cat, and the fact that he demands to be petted.
I fell in love with him when I saw him at the bunny farm. He was so big, and only 3 months old! Beau loves to run around the house and play with his flinging toys. He absolutely loves Cheerios.

Introducing Hershey the House Rabbit
By G.G. Hall
I have had pet rabbits now for about 9 years. They are all rescues and came from one situation or another where they were not living a great life. Several were actually found running around in neighborhoods, most likely either escapees or possibly dumped into the outdoors when their owners no longer wanted them.
About four years ago, I decided that there had to be a way to let people know about the good qualities of rabbits as pets. I was upset to hear so many sad stories about rabbits that had been abandoned or even neglected. I thought, “what if a rabbit wrote his autobiography- telling about his life and his home and perhaps how he had discovered a way to secretly explore it?”

Indoor Rabbit Cages: The Good the Bad and the Ugly
So you have a house rabbit and now want to know the best way to contain your bunny. Many people allow their bunnies to run free range around the house 24/7. But for some rabbit owners this is not practical for many reasons.

Common Health Problems for House Rabbits Part I
The list of health issues faced by mature bunnies and their owners may seem overwhelming to the novice. However, some problems can be easily remedied at home, and avoided altogether by maintaining the proper diet, keeping a healthy environment, and taking care of your pet. Once you’ve established a bond with your rabbit, care and concern will be second nature to you.
Spaying or Neutering Your House Rabbit
Most people are aware of the reputation rabbits have for breeding and overpopulating their environment. Even if your rabbit is your one and only bunny, you should still consider spaying or neutering your pet to avoid some health problems and promote bonding with your house rabbit. The benefits to having your pet altered by your veterinarian far outweigh the risks of the surgery itself.
Why Altering is Beneficial to Your Rabbit
Rabbit Proofing Your Home
Rabbits are social and curious critters by nature. Your house rabbit will enjoy spending time with you and your family and will want to investigate the new surroundings at the every opportunity. You should help to satisfy your friend’s curious nature, but do so in a rabbit friendly environment. In other words, rabbit proofing your home is essential to ensure your pet’s safety and prevent damage to your belongings before bringing your new friend home to live.
