Big Enough Cage?

[Ashley B]

So I'm looking for a new cage that i will be getting for Christmas. I've come up with a few but I've hoping to get a certain one. It is 20" Wide, and 45" Length. Would that be okay for an Male Adult Rex Rabbit? Here is the Link. I would be taking out the ramp to put a litter box, but other than the litter box and toys is would be his space to roam. (The litter box is 10" by 10")

Too small honey that is a starter rabbit cage, my girl grew out of that in one month. I would suggest a large or extra large dog kennel.

The cage you selected would be good for a dwarf bunny though.

Thanks I'll keep looking! DO you know any websites or links where they'll have a good size?:?

Thank You,
Ashley

petsmart has plenty of 48" wire dog kennels that make EXCELLENT rabbit cages.

Contact one of the rescues near you--they may know of some.

You should look into exercise pens. They are great for rabbits. Lots of room and very versatile. I'd recommend at least a 36" since most rabbits can jump quite high (although you can get a cover for the pen as well).

Actually, my little 4.5lb bun can jump out of even a 36" pen, but that's quit high for him so he's reluctant to do so. He's also a free roamer (he has free run of the house when I'm home) so he knows when I put him in the pen it'll only be for a little while.
