Not sure if I am posting this in the right spot, but have a question regarding rabbits. My wife and I are considering getting a Rabbit for my son and daughter. My son has been asking for one for quite some time now and my daughter is getting interested as well. I know nothing about Rabbit's other then they are furry, eat, drink and produce jelly beans...LOL
My questions are
Do you have to take a rabbit to the vet annually or just when it is sick?
Can I build an enclosure on my porch or in my backyard for it and can I keep it out there all year long? (I live in Tampa, FL)
Do I have to worry about any possible disease interaction between Cats, Dogs and Rabbits? I have both cats and dogs.
If I have to take it to the vet Annually, what time of shots, or care do I need to get and what is the average cost for this care?
Any input anybody can provide would be greatly appreciated. As for the enclosure, I would build both an open and closed enclosure that is fairly large and multi tiered It would allow for an enclosed section out of direct sun light as well as heat, and an open one which would be in the sun....
Thanks...
