Who can resist a soft, cuddly rabbit? If your parents can but you can't, you'll need to learn as much as possible about this pet to convince them you can take care of one.

The key to raising healthy and happy rabbits is knowing what they need. You might be surprised to learn that they need a lot. They need a quiet place to live—indoors—where they feel safe. (Yes, rabbits can be litter trained!) It's amazing how much they eat, and they should be fed twice a day. Most important, they need your love. A happy rabbit has a human that spends time with it every day. If you've got plenty of time and the love, a rabbit might just be the right pet for you. Can you convince your parents to agree?
