If your looking for rabbits that are healthy, excellent natured, given the best start in life, loved and cared for before they go to their new homes, then you've come to the right place. My rabbits are a big part of my family and are loved very much. They are not breeding machines and I make no profit from selling the kits. The rabbits live in a shed which keeps them nice and cosy and safe from rain, wind and snow. They are cleaned out twice a week and the mums with kits are cleaned out three times or more. They are fed Wagg Optimum Premium Pellets along with fresh hay every day (remember, hay counts as 80% of a rabbits diet and also keeps their teeth worn down) and are given veg 2-3 times a week, as a lot of veg isn't to good for them. Also, now and again they like porridge oats mixed in with their dry food. They are put in their runs when there is nice weather, if not then they get a little run around the house. Rabbits make excellent pets but aren't the best for younger children unless there is constant adult supervision, they don't like to be pestered all the time. I am dedicated into providing the best care for my bunnies and sometimes any unwanted ones. If you have a rabbit that isn't getting the attention that it deserves then I am more than happy to give it a home if I have enough hutch space for it. Thanks for reading and if you have any questions at all about my rabbits then I am more than happy to answer.
