A rabbit cage or rabbit hutch is the most costly item required to keep a rabbit whether the rabbit is to be kept outdoors or indoors. Even rabbits to be kept indoors as house rabbits should have a cage or hutch where they can feel protected and secure and can rest undisturbed.

It is important that the rabbit cage or rabbit hutch provided is as large as possible. As a general rule the cage or hutch should be at least 4 times the length of the full grown rabbit when stretched out and high enough to allow the rabbit to stand on its hind legs without its ears touching the roof. The longer the time periods that the rabbit is expected to remain contained in the cage or hutch or the larger the number of rabbits to be kept together, the larger the cage or hutch should be. Rabbits are playful and enjoying running and jumping and so will also need a safe exercise area with plenty of room that allows them to do this daily.

There are a variety of rabbit cages and rabbit hutches available from pet shops or Online Pet Stores. However, not all rabbit cages and rabbit hutches that are commercially available are large enough and some owners prefer to build their own home for their rabbit.
