Rabbit in garage

[Kiki]

What do you mean?

I mean to remind your parents to build something that is predator proof. The same things that like to eat chickens will eat a rabbit in a heartbeat given the chance.

Update: So I talked with my parents and they agreed to wait until we get a proper cage for the rabbit until they actually get the rabbit! I'm not the one that wants it but I know they wont do a lot of research so I have a couple questions about the care of the rabbit.

1. Would the claws need trimming or should we just get them declawed or would that be considered cruel like when people declaw cats?

2. Would the rabbit need brushing weekly or daily or it doesn't even need to be brushed

3. Are there certain breeds that we should not get if we are keeping it outside?

4. If we do end up getting 2 rabbits would we need a boy and a girl or two of the same sexes

5. Where could I find plans for a good outdoor pen that we could make

Thanks everyone for your answers to my previous questions and answers that you will give to these

Dang..who is the parent in this. Not trying to be rude. But you sound like the parent thinking responsibly..

They are responsible parents but when it comes to animals it isn't their strong suit

Ahh, I see.

A rabbit can do fine in a garage if you have a proper set-up including lighting, it would need company if it was so far removed from people though.

Ventilation would be the bigger issue. Garages can get very hot in summer and rabbits are not heat tolerant.
