If you are thinking about buying a "big-eared" cat, you should first buy all the things you need for it.

1. Aviary

Be prepared for the fact that rabbits chew a lot, which means wallpaper, wires and furniture are at risk.

An enclosure (not a cage) in which a drinking bowl, feeder and toilet will be installed will help to avoid the negative consequences of living next to a rodent.

2. Feeder and hay

It is important that the new family member has constant access to food. The basis of the rabbits' diet is hay, which allows them to grind down their teeth and ensures the proper functioning of the digestive system.

3. Drinking bowl

You can use either a heavy bowl filled with water or a hanging drinker with a ball. Make sure that the animal gets the necessary amount of moisture, otherwise you will have to treat kidney disease.

4. Claw cutter

Since rabbits' claws grow quite quickly, you have two options - visit a veterinary center or do the procedure yourself.

5. Tray

Clean rabbits are easy to train to use a litter box, and the filler will allow you to clean the litter box much less often.
