Indoor Rabbit Enclosure: Creating Room in the Home
Rabbits living indoors need a fixed, clearly marked area. An indoor enclosure gives them exactly that: room to hop, somewhere to retreat and a surface that stays easy to keep clean. Here you will find enclosures in wood and with acrylic glass walls, plus wall parkours and room dividers that extend the usable area upwards.
Enclosures, dividers and levels
A Hoppla indoor enclosure for small animals measuring 144x72x72 cm gives a small group room and fits neatly into a living room. A small animal house in spruce wood with a panorama window combines a retreat with a view. An indoor run as a room divider with acrylic glass walls marks off the area and keeps the bedding together. A six-part Skywalk wall parkour in solid wood or a three-part Sidewalk creates extra levels on the wall. Ramps and boards connect the levels so that your animals move between them safely.
Fitting out and cleanliness
Indoors the same rule applies: hay has to be available at all times, along with fresh water, absorbent bedding and a house to hide in. Plan for several levels and hiding places so your animals can get out of each other's way. Do not put the enclosure in direct sunshine or in a draught. Take damp patches out every day, wipe smooth surfaces down quickly and let wood dry properly. A washable mat under the enclosure protects the floor.
Frequently asked questions
How big should an indoor enclosure be?
As big as the space allows. Your animals should be able to hop and sit up, and extra time loose in the room still makes sense. Several hiding places help a lot.
What is a wall parkour good for?
It extends the usable area upwards and creates new levels to explore and rest on, without you needing any more floor space in the room.
How do I keep the bedding inside?
A room divider with high acrylic glass walls or a raised rim helps. A wipeable surface under the enclosure is worthwhile too, and a mat protects the floor.
Indoor enclosures for the home
An indoor enclosure gives your rabbits a clear area indoors for hopping, eating and resting. Models in spruce wood with a panorama window combine a retreat with a view, while larger enclosures 144 cm wide give a small group room. A small animal run as a room divider with acrylic glass walls marks the area off cleanly and keeps the bedding together. Wall parkours in solid wood extend the indoor enclosure upwards and create extra levels to explore without needing more floor space. Fit the area out with a hay rack, a drinker, absorbent bedding and a hiding place, keep it out of direct sunshine and draughts, and take damp patches out every day. Rabbits are social animals, so several hiding places and levels are worthwhile so they can get out of each other's way.
