Bunny question...?

Question

I am about to adopt a bunny from my work, and I was just wondering if anyone with bunnies and cats together in the same house. if they get along very well. They are not used to other animals like dogs or anything. But i was wondering about bunnies....

Answer 1

No, nuh uh, Cats will eat them. And bunnies will be terrified to death by them. Bunnies get along with guinea pigs, and small birds, and maybe dogs, if they are small and gentel, but no cats.

Answer 2

I have 3 cats and a bunny, they get along fine. One cat loves to sleep in the bunnies litterbox. They chase eachother(the bunny actually does most of the chasing) and bat balls back and forth and everything. I don't know what kind of bunny you are getting, but if you have cats, the bigger the bun, the better. Even if the cat had a high prey drive, it will think twice about going after a bunny it's own size.
Just watch them while they are together, after a while, they will be fine.

Answer 3

Most domestic pets will get along well if introduced slowly under quiet conditions. Don't place them side by side or nose to nose. I'd place the cat in a carrying kennel to begin with and when the bunny gets curious it will hop over to check kitty out. Then you may want to switch this up and place the bunny in the kennel and let the cat come up. Don't leave them alone until you know for a fact that the cat won't hurt the bunny. If the bunny is small then only leave it with the cat after it grows. Hope they grow up to be best buds!

Answer 4

If you keep the bunnies safe in a nice cage and have a water bottle in the event cat get in to mischief, to teach the cat no unacceptable if he wants to try to hurt the bunny, or just use your commanding voice that tells your cat no! Then The will be fine. I have 8 bunnies and one just about to give birth here soon so good luck. on the bunny journey.

Answer 5

Rabbits and Cats interact fine.
unbeknownst to most people, rabbits can kick a bit of butt quite well. and fend for themselves.

If your cats have a strong prey drive I would be carefull when you let the rabbits out.

My two cats were deathly affraid of all bunnies and could be trusted to stay away even when loose in the same room.

If you want to test the theory, I would suggest a bathroom. that way if it goes badly you aren't running around the house trying to chase down the frightened rabbit being chased by the blood thirsty cat.

Answer 6

yes if the bunnies are small you have to watch them but they doing good with female cats the cats think its there baby and they adopt them . male cats keep there distance but they get along eventually, it was the situation in my house

Answer 7

cats and bunnies dont mix well cats will use bunnies litter box and bunny wont use it anymore . Thats been my experience anyhow

Answer 8

personally i don't have a cat but the cat won't eat the bunny cause it would be too big for the cat to eat.

just make sure the first couple of days that you keep them seperated.
and make sure that they each have their own litter box.

Answer 9

okay my daddy has a whole bunch of bunnies at his work so i think i know what your talking about. but i think if you keep the bunny in a cage and dont leave it alone with the cat, you chould be ok. i think.

ps- do you work at hillsboro police departement w/ my daddy?

Answer 10

I once lived with an English family members. No, I wasn't an replace pupil. which could be cool. They were my foster family members even as me mum did yet another stint in detox. besides, their code note for female pads and tampons became "bunnies." Dunno why, and care a lot less. yet to right this moment, alongside with my love of Bangers and mash, i exploit the note bunnies even as i desire female paper products. Are they wonderful? No. it truly is only a fashion of keeping off the words "pads" and "tampons" on the family members grocery record.
