Holland Lops

We have a bunny that we keep in a cage, but he does come in the house sometimes. He loves to sit on your lap and cuddle. He even gets along good with the dogs. I've heard that they are very easy to litter box train, but I've never tried this.

You should definitely read www.rabbit.org if you've never had a rabbit before. The smaller rabbits actually tend to do worse with young children, but you didn't say how old your children are. The important thing is that you supervise, and that the rabbit is in a family area so that if the children neglect any responsibilities (if they have any), you'll notice. And also because children are unlikely to notice signs of illness. Spay or neuter when the rabbit is old enough to avoid health and behaviorial issues. I've found rabbits to be more territorial when kept in smaller enclosures, and thus more likely to bite. If at all possible, here's a set up that works well: linoleum flooring, puppy pen, a litterbox (can be filled with hay or you can fill a separate box with hay, but either way, grass hay is the most important part of a rabbit's diet), pellet dish (rabbits don't need many pellets, just a small dish), and a water dish (some people use bottles, I've found rabbits do better with dishes). Hope that helps! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. I've done a lot of rabbit rescue education days, so I'm prepared for anything, hehe.
