Buying a rabbit hutch - The ultimate guide

Rabbits are not only adorable pets, they are also demanding creatures that need a safe, comfortable and stimulating environment to thrive. At Sanilu, we understand the importance of a perfect home for your fluffy friends. In this article, you'll learn everything you need to know about rabbit hutches to make an informed decision that will ensure the well-being of your rabbits.

Choosing the right rabbit hutch

Size and space

The hutch should offer enough space for your rabbits to move around freely. As a rule of thumb, the hutch should be at least four times the size of your rabbit to provide enough space for exercise, play and rest areas.

Materials and construction

High-quality rabbit hutches are made from sturdy, durable materials that are also safe for your pets. Wood is a popular choice, but it should be treated with a non-toxic glaze to protect it from the elements while remaining safe for your rabbit.

Safety and protection

A good rabbit hutch offers protection from predators and the elements. This includes a secure locking system, a weatherproof roof and a design that protects against predators such as foxes or cats.

Cleaning and maintenance

Look for a hutch with easily accessible cleaning openings to facilitate hygiene. Removable manure trays and easy access are essential for effective cleaning and care.

Nutrition and accessories

In addition to a safe and comfortable hutch, the right food and accessories are crucial for the well-being of your rabbits. Make sure your hutch has enough space for food and water bowls as well as hay and toys to mimic a natural environment.

Tips for choosing a location for your rabbit hutch

• Safe and quiet: Choose a location that is protected from direct sunlight and draughts.
• Easily accessible: The hutch should be easily accessible for daily care and cleaning.
• Surroundings: A quiet location away from road noise and other disturbances is ideal.

Care and cleaning of the rabbit hutch - what you should bear in mind

The care and cleaning of the rabbit hutch are decisive factors for the well-being of your animals. A clean hutch promotes the health of your rabbits and makes the time you spend with them all the more enjoyable. In this guide, we give you tips on effective hutch care and also introduce you to the Sanilu Clean product, which makes cleaning much easier.

Regular cleaning of the rabbit hutch

To ensure that the rabbit hutch remains hygienically clean, you should clean it thoroughly at least once a week. Remove old bedding, droppings and food debris and wipe down all surfaces. If necessary, a more thorough cleaning should also be carried out, in which the entire hutch is emptied and cleaned.

Identify problem areas

In every hutch, there are corners and areas where a particularly large amount of dirt accumulates. These are often the rabbits' toilet areas or corners where they like to eat. Keep a special eye on these zones and clean them regularly.

If your rabbit hutch is made of natural materials such as wood, you should make sure that you only use mild cleaning agents so as not to damage the materials.
