Question
Hi,

my partner and i have just adopted a baby bunny, i have rabbit proofed the house already.

i would like to know if i can leave my bunny to roam around the house during the week while i am at work, or should i keep her locked in here cadge until i get home at night - i am not so keen on that however i would like to do what is best for the bunny?

Answer
Hello Cleo
Your concern for your rabbits safety is good. If you are not home it is a good idea that you keep it in its housing. Rabbits up to 10 lbs only need 6 square feet of space to be comfortable. So if you need to get a larger cage while your gone that will work. Then let it roam while your home.
Good luck !
