The rabbit as a pet

The adoption of rabbits as pets, a practice that has grown considerably in recent years.



There are several reasons that make the rabbit a good companion for the home. First, these animals do not usually demand a lot of work to members of a family.

Very quiet and peaceful throughout their behavior because they are not aggressive, do not bother the neighbors, and often congeniar easily with other pets, if they are carefully tailored.

They do not have the need to make a lot of exercise, and, second, to respond with loving care and affection.

How to clean the rabbit

As I told you, I have a rabbit for 7 years. It is an animal that requires some attention, but that once it generates a care routine is fairly simple. The issue of maintaining good hygiene depends somewhat on the type of rabbit in particular but in general are very clean animals. More than anything care concern the cleaning of the cage, the food and drink containers and tray excreta.

The cage should be cleaned thoroughly every day. In my case especially, you get to play cards, the renewal every day. The water container should be cleaned once a day and renew the water very often. Excreta in the tray you can use stones that are sold in the market, since it eliminates the odor. But that's what I do in the tray that goes underneath the cage, with which the rabbit has no direct contact.

Rabbits spruce hair all the time. They are extremely clean, but at times the hair that move, you must be a little careful as they tend to swallow a lot and they can generate a digestive problem, like we saw with the cats. To avoid this, a good idea is to pass a very soft bristle brush, every so many days. For the rabbit is a mime and enjoy.

It is not necessary to bathe, but this has to be an exception. Tolerate the cold very badly. In the event that fouled a lot, and there is no choice, it is advisable to use warm water and mild soap. But if we confine ourselves to the specific area that is dirty, the better. I do not recommend using a hair dryer, because the nervous and not particularly good at them. Dry with a towel, gently in a warm atmosphere, with good temperature to keep dry, it is better idea.
