Rabbit buying questions
How much do pet rabbits cost in the UK?+
Pet rabbits usually cost £30–£150 depending on breed and whether they are already neutered and vaccinated. Ongoing costs — hay, vet care, vaccinations and a large enclosure — are considerably higher than the purchase price.
Should I buy one rabbit or two?+
Always two. Rabbits are highly social and suffer when kept alone. A neutered male and spayed female pair usually bonds most easily.
What size hutch do rabbits need?+
UK welfare guidance recommends a minimum of 3m x 2m x 1m of combined living space, with the run permanently attached so rabbits can exercise whenever they choose.
