Rabbits and Animal
The Orphanage is of the opinion that rabbits and dogs must never be left together unsupervised. Rabbits stress easily as they are prey animals, and the stress of being around a predator may cause a “flight” response, to which a dog, with its natural predator instinct, may give chase and a tragedy could result. Rabbits and Guinea pigs also should not be housed together. Find out why in our articles:
Rabbits and Dogs
Rabbit Runaway Orphanage has had many rabbits come into its care after the dog has been “playing” with the rabbit... sadly the rabbits have all died from their injuries.
Rabbits and Guinea Pigs
Why guinea pigs and rabbits should not be housed together? Rabbits and guinea pigs need different foods to meet their different dietary requirements...
