My mom said that someone at her work posted something up saying that they have a 4 year old rabbit to give away. I'm just wondering, is 4 years old, what's the average age a rabbit could go up to?
anyways, the rabbit is all grey, and they said its from a breeder.
I really want it!:D
My mom's afraid that rabbits will smell:rolleyes: But I don't really care. My mom said we'll ask my dad, but I don't think they'll let me anyways.

Right

4 is a good age for a bunny but they can live up to the ages of 8 and older.

Bunny do smeel if they are not cleaned out very often, but if you are dedicated you can train your bun to do the toilet in a tray and clean that out everyday.

please read up on diet etc so are well prepared if you take the rabbit on.
Good Luck.

Thanks:)
Now I just hope that nobody took it yet.
My mom told me its a Netherlands Dwarf rabbit or something.
Yep, I'm going to do a lot of research on them if we're getting him.

I have rabbits that live longer right now i have a mini lop / jersy wooley (Wee one) hes 14 years old. Male rabbits that arn't fixed do smell , but if you keep the wastes cleaned up they are a great pet.

Our rabbit, Chris, lived to be five years old, which I was told was old, but I'm probably wrong. I didn't really have too much part in raising him, but I do know that rabbit excrement is really very neat, not like dog excrement, or the excrement of certain other animals. I don't remember him smelling, but I don't really remember much about him to be honest. Oh, and he hated being held. I've also red that rabbits aren't very good pets for young children. I hope that helps. :)
