I had rabbits when I was a teenager and the males were all neutered. One was sold to us as a female but he turned out to be a male. Sally and Tiggy had seven babies and we found a loving home for two of the rabbits. We lovingly kept all the others. They lived in wooden rabbit hutches with waterproof roofs. They were let out in the garden in an area wired in so they were safe from foxes. Some rabbits live in a wooden hutch and go out into a spacious run in the daytime. That seems a lovely way to keep a rabbit. The floor in the hutch should be solid and newspaper can be put down so the rabbits can urinate on it. A nest of hay and is appreciated to keep them warm in the night time. The hutch must be safe from foxes. Rabbits should not sit on a wire floor because that would be very cruel indeed. My sister had two ducks called Pinky and Orangy. They lived in a shed in the night time and in the day time swam in their pond. They had a safe area with wire fencing with a roof to prevent foxes getting them. They could sit on the land or swim in the water. They had a happy life and so did all the rabbits I am happy to say. My first rabbit I got at four years old. In those days she had the run of the whole garden and went in her hutch in the night time. Luckily in those days they weren't any foxes around. Though in my teenage years there were loads of foxes around even in the day time!

I understand that if the bottom of the rabbit cage is with wire can really hurt there paws.We have a good cage the bottom is in plastic, we bought it at the pet store with the bunny.( kit).

I get terribly upset when I see how some animals are treated, people don't seem to think animals have feelings, this is why when I give to charities it is always animal charities, they deserve so much better.
