Netherland Dwarf · Mini Lop
Litter-trainable mini companion — like a quiet small cat
Rabbits can be litter-trained, learn their name, and binky with joy — but they chew cables, need daily greens and hay, and live 8–12 years. A free-roam pen beats a hutch.

Curated starter supplies researched for this companion's specific anatomy and needs
Rabbits naturally chew hay while eliminating; placing clean timothy hay directly above an accessible litter pan establishes impeccable house-training habits.
House rabbits have hyper-sensitive cecal flora prone to lethal GI stasis from hair ingestion during molts; chicory root and chamomile sustain gut motility.
Lagomorph teeth grow up to 5 inches every year; natural untreated orchard wood prevents overgrown dental spurs while redirecting chewing away from baseboards.
