How much does owning rabbits really cost?
Rabbits are social animals and should always live in pairs or small groups so they have company of their own kind. All of our costs are based on caring for a pair of rabbits.
Over their lifetimes, you should expect a pair of indoor rabbits to costat least £6,800 - £9,300 and slightly higher at £7,100 - £9,800 for outdoor rabbits.
This is the estimated minimum amount you’ll need to spend to meet your rabbits’ welfare needs. If your rabbits need lots of health care or you decide to spend more on them, the costs could be considerably more.
Apart from neutering and vaccinations, these costs don’t include any vet fees. If your rabbit has an accident or develops a health problem, the cost could be much higher. It’s important to be prepared, which is why we recommend rabbit owners get pet insurance.
