The ultimate guide to a happy bunny

A happy bunny is a busy bunny. Rabbits need unlimited hay, fresh greens daily, and room to run — a hutch alone is never enough. Think of the hutch as a bedroom, not a house: your rabbit needs several hours of supervised free-roam time every day.

Bunny-proof like you mean it

Rabbits chew everything. Cover cables with spiral wrap, block gaps behind furniture and remove toxic houseplants. Then add tunnels, willow balls and cardboard castles — a bored rabbit redecorates your skirting boards.

Litter, vets and friends

• Most rabbits litter-train within a week: big tray, hay rack above it, patience and treats.
• Book a rabbit-savvy vet early for vaccination and neutering advice.
• Consider a bonded pair — rabbits are social and a friend prevents loneliness.
• Handle gently every day, supporting chest and hindquarters, so vet visits stay calm.

Your reward is a playful, affectionate companion that greets you with binkies. Stock up on hay, treats and toys in our small-pet collection.
