Rabbits need much more than a cage, food bowl and occasional attention. Good rabbit care includes constant access to good-quality hay or grass, fresh water, appropriate leafy greens and a small amount of suitable pellets; enough permanent space to run, stretch, stand upright, hide and explore; daily exercise and enrichment; and companionship from a compatible rabbit where possible. Rabbits also need regular veterinary care, appropriate vaccination, dental monitoring and daily observation of their eating and droppings. A rabbit that stops eating or producing normal droppings can become seriously ill and needs prompt veterinary attention.
