Heather is absolutely correct, rabbits are a LOT of work. And be advised that they will NOT automatically love you, unless you get one very unusual bunny, when you take them home. What I think is the fun and reward part of having rabbits is that they will not automatically love you the way a puppuy or kitten will.

YOU are going to have to earn their TRUST first. To do that I always advise people that they must get down on the floor with their bunny and spend a LOT of time down there. Rabbits are a prey animal and they DO NOT like being picked up, many do not like even being held in your lap...they do not know, especially at first, that you mean them no harm. A lot of other people will say that rabbits hgave no personality. And sadly for those buns who are left in an outdoor hutch or in an inside cage, never let out to play, and seldom interact with people, they never become the charming, playful and comedic companion that rabbits can truly be.

You should also know that contrary to what mosdt people think rabbits are a very expensive animal to maintain. One of the biggest fallacies is that they can have rabbit pellets as their main or only source of food. 90% of the pellets on the market today are alfalfa-based...which is very high in calcium and low in fiber. This alone presents 2 problem: baby rabbits up until 1 year old are growing their bones and need the calcium but after that they do not. Excess calcium in their diet "mostly" gets excreted in their urine...the calcium that does not, goes in to the bladder and forms in to crystals which eventually form in to bladder stone.
That's problem number 1 with pellets. The other is that pellets are low in fiber (anything under 17-18% fiber is too low)....a rabbit's gut has to move constantly....(that's why the poop so much)...if their diet does not have enough fiber, the gut slows and can stop...this is a dangerous condition called GI stasis and this condition call kill a rabbit in 24 hours.

Alfalfa hay likewise is too high in calcium. Ideally rabbits should have unlimited timothy hay, which can be difficult to find but is readily available online from many rabbit supply sites. Then they should have, depending on their size, 1-2 cups of fresh DARK green leaf veggies each My rabbit specialist vet (and you need on of those too because not all vets take the training in rabbit care..and again rabbits are so much diff from dogs/cats, that it is vitally important to have a knowledgable vet that won't accidently ill your rabbit by giving wrong mediciation).

If you really, really want a rabbit go to www.rabbit.org and read up. They ARE wonderful, wonderful pets but they are not for everyone and they will take a lot of your time, attention and money. But, as far as I am concerned they are worth very penny I have to spend. Good luck in getting a rabbit.
