Question
Hello, it is me Christina again! And i have another question. Do Bunnies have meals? I think i should feed the new bunny a breakfast,lunch and dinner. But, I will make the portions small, then equaling what it should get everyday. And another question on exercise........ should i do this?

My other question is, Will my bunny escape if i try to play with it on the grass outside? My back yard is very huge and full or plants. It is fanced though. it is fenced all around. i heard that bunnies are very fast. Will he run so fast that i wont catch him? Another question is, can i bring my bunnie indoors to play? Then bring it back out to his hutch?


Thankyou, and please make sure the answers are correct. I need to prepare for my new bunny fast! :)

Answer
Hi Christina,
You can give your bunny's meals if you would like to just know a bunny only eats 1/3 cup per pound of body weight. So what I do with mine is mine get 1/2 cup a day so I give 1/4 cup in the am and the pm. But some will feed all at once I don't because I wouldn't want one meal a day. I guess my question about the fence is can it fit thru the holes in the fence? If it can get it's head thru then NO but remember there fast and are you prepared for the fact that you might not be able to catch him or what he might be munching on? About indoor play that would be fine as long as there isn't a big degree change cause that will stress your bunny out. If they play inside you need to bunny proof your home they love to chew wires and anything they can get there teeth on. Mine are inside and when it is nice outside I put there cages out in the yard for fresh air. I hope this helps =:3
