Best Answer

Rabbits can make really great pets but they're not "common sense" pets: you have to spend time learning about their care and behaviour, setting up an appropriate habitat, and finding nearby vets who treat rabbits (many vets don't; and some who do really shouldn't because they don't know enough about rabbits to treat them safely). See the related questions below for detailed info and helpful links!

Only if you can get catch it, but be careful they can have heart attacks. They also might have worms!!!!!

It is very unwise to catch and try to domesticate a wild rabbit. Wild rabbits will usually die in captivity because they are unable to graze on clover, grass and other vegetation. They will not typically eat the type of rabbit pellets you buy at a pet food store. They are also more susceptible to human germs. Please remember that these rabbits are meant to live free. If you want a rabbit go to a pet store or a farm auction and buy one.

No, I know you wanna keep them but bunnies surviving in CAPTIVITY is a rare thing and very hard and if you feel responsible because you dog/cat destroyed the nest you need to dig a new one about 3" deep and put dry grass and any of the mothers fur you can find. (The nest can be as far as 10' away from the original site)

No! I think its illegal in most places. And besides its cruel to keep a wild bunny. If you really loved the animal you would let it go. Think about it. The rabbit has a family. What if you were the rabbit? DONT keep it! Release it immeidiatly!

Actully I'm pretty sure it's illegal most places in the US and possibly other countries and i don't think it would get use to being handled and make a good pet. The stress could also kill it.

Yes, domestic rabbits can be pets but if you got that kit from the wild, you need a special permit to own one.

No, adult wild rabbit would eventually kill himself running into walls of the place you are keeping him. It could also bite you if he is extremely provoked.
