Hi I'm from the UK and very interested in differences between here and the USA in regards to housing
In the UK rabbits live on solid floors, but there's big differences in cage sizes. It's quite acceptable for breeders to keep small rabbits in 2fx2ft cages, where as most rescues reccomend a minimum of 6x2x2ft cages (with attached run), pet owners seem to range from 3 - 5ft, unless they've been advised by a rescue to go bigger.
In the USA I've seen a lot of small breeder cages, do rescues have a reccomended cage size? And do the reccomend solid or wire floor? And what sizes do pet owners tend to go for?
