We got our first bunny two weeks ago, and of course we didn't know anything about the right way to take care of a rabbit. We did everything the pet store said for the cage, bedding, etc., which meant overpriced bedding and toys, and a teeny tiny cage
Luckily I found this forum the day after we brought her home, and I quickly realized we needed to make some changes. I finished Cinnabun's new cage a couple days ago, and I would love some feedback! This is my first time having a rabbit, and I'm slowly learning what she likes to play with, so if you see anything that needs to be changed please let me know. We had space limitations, so her cage is 2 1/2 grids deep x 3 grids wide x 2 1/2 grids tall (24" x 42" x 35"). Hopefully this is enough for one bunny - it's a ton better than her previous cage which was basically the size of the first floor of her new cage I used a clear vinyl carpet protector for the first floor. Someone else had mentioned using this in another housing thread, and I love it so far. It has enough texure that she doesn't slip, but it's also incredibly easy to clean. She's not litter trained yet, so this was a necessity when choosing flooring. For the second adn third levels I used grids covered in coroplast and fleece.
I made all of the toys in her cage and so far she seems to like them. Luckily I had tons of safe materials (veggie dyed pine, balsa, willow sticks, loofah, palm, etc.) to use because I make my own bird toys too.
