Is It Okay to Keep a Rabbit Caged All the Time?
Keeping a rabbit in a cage permanently is not recommended. Rabbits are active animals that love to run and jump, and constant confinement limits their natural behavior. Long-term caging can lead to weakened physique, bone deformity, and muscle loss, while the lack of social contact may cause loneliness and stress. To keep a rabbit healthy and happy, provide a roomy enclosure with good ventilation and light, plus a safe exercise area where it can move freely each day. Add comfortable bedding, fresh water, and chew toys, and clean the cage regularly to prevent dampness and disease. In short, rabbits need space and daily out-of-cage time to thrive.
