About rabbits in the United States

Rabbits are the 3rd most common US pet after cats and dogs β€” about 1.5 million pet rabbits. House rabbit keeping has surged in the last decade, with most rabbits now housed indoors rather than in outdoor hutches. Our rabbit calculators follow House Rabbit Society and Rabbit Welfare Association UK standards.

How rabbit care differs from guinea pig care

Rabbits need unlimited hay, pellet restriction (not free-feed), and 4+ hours daily exercise. Their gut stasis can kill within 24 hours if they stop eating. Unlike cats or dogs, rabbits should not be fed fruit as a regular treat (sugar disrupts gut flora).

Rabbit calculator FAQ

Can rabbits live alone?

They strongly prefer companions. Pairs (neutered, opposite-sex usually) bond best. Single rabbits require more human interaction but can be happy with daily out-of-hutch time.

How big should a rabbit hutch be?

RWA UK minimum: 6 ft Γ— 2 ft Γ— 2 ft (12 sq ft) for any rabbit β€” MUCH larger than most pet-store hutches. See our Rabbit Hutch Size Calculator.

How accurate are these calculator results?

Our calculators implement the exact formulas used in veterinary textbooks, AAFCO/NRC nutrition standards, AAHA/AAFP life-stage guidelines, and peer-reviewed research. Results are accurate within the precision of the input data. For medical decisions (toxicity, drug dosing, diabetic insulin), always confirm with your veterinarian β€” calculators are educational tools, not clinical devices.
