Although being cute, rabbits are not the type of pet to be hold or
cuddled with, because rabbits have a natural instinct of always having
their feet touching the ground. They can be trained to use a litter box
or to even come when called. Most people think that rabbits only have
two teeth but in reality they actually have 28 teeth. Have you ever
seen a rabbit in the wild and turn around for a second and it’s gone?
Well if you’ve had and wondered where it went, well rabbits live in
burrows under the ground. rabbits are also known for living in groups.
Whenever you see a group of rabbits, most of the time the group is huge
because rabbits reproduce real fast. So if you ever decide to get a pet
rabbit it’s best to get just one or two of the same gender. Have you

hairless with their eyes closed.
