Tan
Space & activity
A small rabbit such as a Tan needs room to hop, stretch up, and binky — several hours of safe, supervised exercise outside a hutch each day keeps them fit and happy. Rabbits are most active at dawn and dusk and love tunnels, cardboard, and dig boxes.
Temperament & companionship
Rabbits are prey animals and prefer gentle, ground-level company over being picked up. Many thrive with a bonded rabbit friend, though bonding is a slow, supervised process. A Tan's trust is earned patiently, with quiet routines and treats.
Everyday care
The foundation is unlimited grass hay, fresh water, leafy greens, and a small measured pellet portion. Add safe chews for their ever-growing teeth and a clean living space. Rabbits hide illness well, so a rabbit-savvy vet and regular checks matter — this page is orientation, not medical advice.
