Rabbits are highly active social animals that suffer profoundly when kept in small hutches without space to run, jump, or engage in natural behaviors.
Traditional rabbit hutches are far too small for the welfare of an animal that naturally runs several miles daily. Confined rabbits develop skeletal problems, dental disease from inappropriate diet, obesity, and behavioral stereotypies. Many owners underestimate rabbit intelligence and social needs. Rabbits kept in pairs or groups with sufficient space and enrichment are far healthier and happier.
