Where will bunny live inside?
When deciding where your bunny will live, there are several options to consider. But the most important decision first; indoor or outdoor?
Indoor Housing
Many pet owners choose to house their rabbits indoors. This is a great option because the bunny will recieve more attention as you're passing through your house as opposed to the backyard where you have to make a special visit to see your bunny. If you are housing your rabbit indoors, I suggest a cage like this:

This type of cage is best because the rabbit sits on a wire floor above a metal, pull-out drop pan- makes cleaning easy and keeps bunny clean!
Other tips for keeping your rabbit indoors:
1. Make sure your rabbit gets an hour or so of playtime outside of its cage daily. This is fun for him, and you'll get to see his real personality as he runs from wall to wall and jumps high in the air!
2. Keep his cage out of high-traffic areas. Just as you like retiring to your secluded bedroom for a rest, your rabbit likes his alone time too. A busy area can make him nervous and on-edge.
3. Keep his cage in a room with the door closed so that other pets are not constantly bothering him.
4. Never let your rabbit out of his cage unsupervised.
