How big of an indoor rabbit cage should you get?
Manufacturers typically design indoor rabbit cages that are identical, except for size. This is so any kind of caged, indoor animal can use it, including hamsters, guinea pigs, bunnies, etc. It is important that you find out the actual size of an indoor rabbit cages before you buy it, because what a manufacturer is calling an indoor cage for a rabbit may actually be too small.
The majority of indoor rabbit cages have lengths of 100cm or 120cm, but it is also possible to find indoor bunny cages that is 150cm long. Only use the small (100cm) indoor cages for a rabbit that is free to move around when it pleases. If your rabbit will be in the cage most of the time, you want to find the largest bunny cage possible.

How tall should the indoor rabbit cage be?
You want the indoor rabbit to be tall enough that your bunny can sit upright and not touch its ears on the top of the cage. Remember, that there are many cages that are big enough for your bunny, but are designed for a guinea pig. These are not tall enough for a bunny. At a minimum, your rabbit cage should be 18” tall. However, if you have a medium to large bunny, your cage will need to be taller.
What kind of floor should the indoor rabbit cages have?
If your cage has a wire floor, it either needs to be covered, or the wiring has to be removed. The wires can easily injure your bunny’s feet. This is especially true for rex breeds, which only have a thin layer of fur covering their feet.
What kind of door should the indoor rabbit cages have?
The larger the door, the easier it will be for you to get your bunny in and out. If you want your bunny to be able to go in and out as it wants, get a side door. Be sure that a door that is also a ramp is either solid or covered. If not, your bunny may catch its leg in the bars and get hurt.
