Why rabbits make good pets

 

Rabbits are often quoted as having a lifespan of around five years. However, they can actually live to a maximum of 12 years, with small breeds living longer than their larger cousins.  This low estimate is often due to a lack of understanding of their needs and the assumption that they’re children’s pets. 

Most well-looked after rabbits live to around 7-10 years, so with the right environment and care, they make great long-term companions.
