Question
I keep my rabbit outside all the time. I want to keep it in the house. But my parents wont let me. Is it better to keep the rabbit indoors or outdoors? I think that i am not spending enough time with it. And i know i would if it was inside. Would it be better to keep it indoors?

Answer
Katie,
I agree that you should have him indoors with you and your family...especially if it is living alone. he will become lonely...if they don't allow him inside I would recommend getting another one for company.  Rabbits are very social and should definately not be kept outdoors as a single pet..it is cruel,they need the interaction of people or other animals.  You can tell your parents this,and hopefully they'll change their minds! Good luck,Elizabeth
