Before buying a pet and bringing it home, you should prepare the place where you want to put your pet. You should provide it with good and clean housing.

The hutch should be safe enough to be put outdoors. If you opt for an outdoor hutch, make it safe from predators by making a sturdy enclosure and be sure that the rabbits can't get out. Rabbit runs are also made part of the hutch to give the rabbits enough room to play.

These outdoor hutches are made of wood and wire mesh. Always check the wire mesh and make sure that it can't harm your rabbits. Sunlight is essential for your rabbit's health so be sure to give them enough sunlight. This should not be a problem if you have an outdoor hutch since it can get direct sunlight.
