Dwarf rabbits The dwarf rabbit is descended from the European wild rabbit. Over the centuries, it has spread throughout Europe from its original home on the Iberian Peninsula. Their habitat is grassland and scrubland, where the animals live in groups. Brown hares and rabbits are not, as is often assumed, related to each other.The dwarf rabbit was bred out of the ermine rabbit breed. Different breeding forms: Dwarf rabbit Lionhead Dwarf lop Care: Dwarf rabbits can live up to eight years if cared for well. If you decide on two, you should be aware that you are responsible for the animals for their entire lives.Dwarf rabbits are sociable animals by nature. One option is to choose two females – ideally from the same litter. However, even these may fight one another after reaching sexual maturity. Two males will always fight.A good option is a pair, provided the male has been neutered.Dwarf rabbits must be kept together from a young age. Introducing a second rabbit to one that is already older is very difficult and requires a lot of patience.Housing rabbits indoors requires plenty of space, as they need a large cage. The smallest cage recommended for rabbits with lots of freedom of movement is 140x66cm. This cage must still be equipped with shelves and hiding places. If the space is too small, dwarf rabbits often become aggressive, as they defend their "small" territory. If you have enough space, you should buy a cage measuring 150x75cm.It is also possible to keep dwarf rabbits outdoors. A house where they can take shelter in rain and cold – combined with an outdoor run – meets the rabbits’ natural needs. Beware: rabbits dig deep tunnels and holes – the run should be escape-proof. Legal requirements: Legal requirements: • minimum base area (depending on weight and number of rabbits) from 0.34 m2, i.e. 80 cm x 42.5 cm, minimum height 40 cm or 50 cm• Bedding• darkened area as a retreat for all rabbits• Gnawing materials such as soft wood or fresh branches• Nest chambers for heavily pregnant does with suitable nesting material• nursing females must be able to withdraw from their young into another section or onto a raised level• Pairs or group housing The cage should be equipped with: Bedding Hay various shelters made of wood or cork, Shelves to increase the area of the cage Food bowl and drinking bottle Food: To stay healthy, rabbits – like other living creatures – rely on a varied diet.The ready-mix food and hay offered in pet shops ensures a balanced basic diet. By adding supplementary food, you can bring variety to the menu for dwarf rabbits. A salt and mineral stone provides the rabbit with essential minerals.Fresh food, such as fruit, carrots or dandelion is especially enjoyed by rabbits. Never feed cabbage or raw beans – cabbage causes bloating (and raw beans are poisonous). Make sure that the fresh food is free from pesticides.A rabbit's liquid needs are not met by green food alone. They need fresh water every day, ideally provided in an automatic waterer. Ongoing costs (per month/for 2 rabbits): Food: approx. Fr. 20.-- Bedding and hay: approx. Fr. 50.-- Vet: The more appropriate and clean the housing, the less likely a trip to the vet will be needed.
