Plastic Cages
There are a number of rabbit cages available from Pet Stores with a plastic base and a rigid wire top intended for dwarf rabbits to be kept indoors. Unfortunately the majority of these types of rabbit cages are too small for even a dwarf rabbit to be kept inside for any amount of time and many do not provide the rabbit with a sheltered area in which to seek privacy although some kind of sleeping box can be placed inside the cage to provide this.
Plastic based cages do have the advantage of being lightweight, easily cleanable and not soaking up urine as wood does.
Metal Cages
There are a variety of metal rabbit cages available from Pet Stores with a metal base and a rigid wire top intended for dwarf rabbits to be kept indoors. As with the plastic cages many of these types of rabbit cages are too small for even a dwarf rabbit to be kept inside for any amount of time and will require the addition of a sleeping box to give the rabbit an area where it can feel protected and secure in which to rest and sleep.
Metal cages tend to be cold and so deep floor covering is needed. Cages with wire mesh floors should be avoided as these can cause sores on the rabbit's feet. |
