City Rabbit

Question
Hi Julia!
I am a new bunny owner and I have a question about the living situation of my new bun. I love having my rabbit in my living room/dining room because he loves people and loves to be around us. BUT my living room/dining room is located near a pretty busy street and an airport and it can get pretty noisy. He seems to be ok with it, but Im afraid that something maybe like a snow plow rumbling by might scare him to death...literally. I really don't want to put him in a room that we dont spend as much time in.Should I move him?

-Thank you

Answer
Jessica, it is great you are thinking of your rabbit. The usual culprits on rabbits being startled to death are sudden, loud noises. Fireworks, gunshots, etc. As long as he is ok now, a snowplow should not bother him. Sirens might, but hopefully you don't have many come by. If you know of a time when the noise is going to get louder, I would move him then. Being around the humans he loves may be enough to help him through the noise.
Enjoy your pet!
