Indoor Rabbit Cage Ideas

We all love our bunnies to roam around inside our house. So I'll be giving you some ideas for an indoor rabbit cage. All my rabbits are all indoor type so they love to play inside my place however I are super afraid to go outside maybe they do not feel safe if the moment they step outside there room. An indoor type rabbits need a large cage and well ventilated place my rabbits loves to stay on a place air conditioned.

An indoor cage must be composed of hay feeder with hay, litter box, food bowl, water feeder and a play area. The image below is perfect example what the indoor cage look like. Always put the food near to the litter box cause bunnies has a super fast metabolism when they eat they poop the same time.
