Rabbit Bed

Explore rabbit beds, cushions, hammocks. Compare the dimensions, materials, fixing method and care instructions shown on each product page to choose an option that suits your rabbit’s space and usual resting position.

A purchased bed is optional, but every rabbit needs a quiet, sheltered place to rest on a solid, non-slip surface. Check fabric, seams and fastenings regularly, and remove the item if it becomes damaged or your rabbit chews off pieces.

How to Choose a Rabbit Bed

Choose a rabbit bed according to your rabbit’s usual resting position, chewing habits and available space. Some rabbits prefer an open cushion, while others settle more easily in a high-sided bed or a low hammock.

Check the actual usable dimensions shown on each product page rather than relying only on photographs. Your rabbit should be able to enter, turn and lie down without feeling cramped.

Placement, Care and Safety

Place the bed in a calm, dry and familiar part of your rabbit’s living area, on a stable, solid and non-slip surface. Keep it away from direct sunlight, heaters and excessive warmth. Your rabbit should always be free to enter or leave the bed.

Follow the cleaning instructions provided for the specific product. Remove fur, hay and visible soiling regularly, and allow washed fabric to dry completely before returning it to the resting area.

Check for loose threads, exposed filling, damaged edges or worn fastenings. If your rabbit repeatedly damages or swallows material, remove the bed and offer a more suitable resting surface.
