Question
My bother and his wife have a pet rabbit that has free run of house like a cat,very house broke. Anyways,I wanted to build them something for rabbit. When rabbits crash-out in house,do they like to sleep inside something? Thanks

Answer
Hi,

all rabbits need a hidey house in case they get scared or want a little privacy.  Depending on the size of the bunny, you can make a nice rectangular pine house with a curved entrance opening in one of the long walls.  On top of the house put some carpeting or synthetic sheepskin, as tehy will hop on top (and bare wood may be too slippery) and the nice soft bedding material will allow them to also sometimes rest on top of the house.
