Did none of you that're commenting on how bad this bunny has it, notice the food and water dishes on the other side of the crate? Be more observative. While the rabbit could use some toys and a home that has places where it can see out of, it is in no way being harmed or mishandled. And @love4musicable telling someone you hope they die is a bit extreme. Think before you say things, and observe closer.

A rabbit shouldn't be kept in a box with no space for him to see through any of the four sides. It's cruel and unnatural. You should get a rabbit run for the garden and let it experience light and fresh air. That rabbit is so obviously bored and you should always keep rabbits in pairs anyway, as they're social animals in their natural habitat!

@camillenr1 As in show them in fairs and other rabbit shows etc...?

[camillenr1]

@dancinchiky111 i really don't want to start a big discussion here, but what do you mean by: "I show my rabbits every year"? it surely isn't going to kill them but i really prefer hay which I know where it comes from, so there will be no nasty pesticides or things like this inside. this i would not be able to make sure with pellets.

[dancinchiky111]

@camillenr1 Thats why you give them pellets...all it is is ground up alfalfa pretty much.  And the fiber in that is what helps the digestive systems. I show my rabbits every year and a way of increasing weight gain in rabbits is eliminating the hay from their diet. So its not going to kill them if they don't have it.

[camillenr1]

@dancinchiky111 hell yeah, hay is very important if you don't want a sick rabbit. it's due to their digestive system. that is ´just purely wrong what you said, only (!!!) concerning the hay!!! the other stuff might be true! however, the rabbit will sooner or later be able to jump out of that box, but the owner probably has already noticed that. maybe it was just at the beginning, the box-thingy, who knows..

The more the cameraman close up the bunny's eyes the more apparent that its scared, possibly due to the bad living condition. Seeing how the bunny tries to escape at 2:02 makes me sad :(

And cause a blockage or have an allergic reaction. See my former comment for clarification.

While the rabbit could definatley use a better cage and some toys, it is in now way being abused. I work for a bunny rescue and have seen rabbits in far worse shape and care than this little rabbit is. Like I said, it could use a better cage and some toys, but I see no reason to say someone should die or not have their pet as they obviously are caring for it. The only thing I would complain about are the wood shavings as litter. They aren't the best bedding as the bunny could ingest them.

@Rockerismx how is your rabbit opening it's own cage anything to do with what I was saying? I wasn't critisizing as in the video the bunny goes out of the crate

[Rockerismx]

@Lieriaa I don't think they keep the rabbit in there 24/7. My rabbit lived in a cage, yes, but she was let out and got smart enough to learn how to open her cage on her own. Also, I might mention that I said in my comment that the bunny could use some toys and something to see out of. Read things closer before you say anything. You might miss something.
