The hamster may bite the rabbit and it could be very serious. Definitely not a good idea. Hamsters are not very sociable and can be very aggressive.

No no no they both need there own space and Hamsters like to be alone and bunnys don't love the love all that must eather but you want a friend for your rabbits, get a guinea pig. . there all so no where near the same size
. Hamsters can crawl out of cages that are big enough for rabbits and rabbits can't fit in cages small enough for hamsters.

Absolutely not. There is a HUGE size difference and the rabbit can very easily injure or kill your hamster.
And a common myth is that rabbits and guinea pigs can be housed together. This is the same situation. It can't happen. There have been known instances of piggies being seriously injured and even killed due to being housed with (even for a visit) a rabbit.
Even if your rabbit is very docile and lovable, please don't risk your hamsters' safety.

If you are standing there watching them, it will probably be ok. I remember allowing my Hamster and Rabbit to play together once in my basement , they did sniff each other a little but they mostly just ignored each other.
Every rabbit and hamster is different though, so you never know what will happen until you try it!

I'm not sure. Last week I went to the pet store, and they had guinea pigs and rabbits in the same cage, and they got along just fine. I wouldn't chance the hamsters unless I knew for sure.

Uh...no. Hamsters can crawl out of cages big enough for rabbits and rabbits can't fit in cages small enough for hamsters. Also, hamsters and vicious and will bite the hell out of the rabbit.

In a word: no. Hamsters are very solitary (they like to be alone). If you want a friend for your rabbits, get a guinea pig. They work well together.

No, please don't put them in together. It is potentially dangerous for both animals; moreover, the rabbit needs a larger cage than the hamster, so someone is not going to be properly housed no matter how you do this.

no, the hamster sleeps all day and exercises at night
the hamster eats different food than the bunny though both eat carrots and lettuce

pls NO. they are not togather all the time. meaning, your hamster doesn't familiar with your bunny and your bunny doesn't familiar with your hamsters. they will fight and your hamster might get hurt.
