Is the Beveren right for you?

Think twice if — you expected a low-effort "starter" pet — rabbits are not.

What a Beveren needs from you

Rabbits are social animals that do best in a bonded pair and should never be kept fully alone. A Beveren needs a good amount of room to run and stretch, a hay-based diet, daily cleaning and moderate day-to-day upkeep. Check nails and coat regularly. Most rabbits dislike being picked up, so handling should be calm and on their terms.
