Ten Benefits of Having a Pet Rabbit or Rabbitry

  1. A rabbit can be a great pet. And because of its quiet nature your rabbit will not demand attention and need to be walked every day, but will still receive affection gratefully.
  2. Rabbits can be easily litter box trained and can be kept in the house.
  3. Taking care of a pet rabbit can be a great way to teach children responsibility.
  4. Rabbits can eat all your vegetable scraps from your kitchen.
  5. Rabbits can virtually mow your lawn. By cutting your grass using a tool other than a lawn mower you can collect the clippings and feed them to your rabbit.
  6. Rabbit manure is one of the best fertilizers ever and can be used on your lawn and in your garden. Also it is high in Nitrogen and can be spread out on your lawn to improve your grass.
  7. Rabbit fur is very soft and considerably warmer than other fur. Also the wool from the Angora breed can be spun and made into winter clothing.
  8. Rabbit meat is a very digestible, palatable and tasty meat and because of its density you do not have to eat as much. Also it is high in protein and low in cholesterol.
  9. Because rabbits are not noisy they can be kept in the city and not bother your neighbors. And if your rabbitry is kept secluded and sanitary your neighbors will not notice it and become alarmed.
  10. Having a rabbitry can be a great hobby or even a part time job.
