Great rabbit care book

If you are new to bunnies or just want a thorough book on rabbit care, this is a great one. It covers every topic imaginable! I have found most "Dummy" books to be very informative, and this one is no exception. I would like a few more color pictures of rabbits, but other than this, the book is terrific!

Good General Care Book

This is one of my favorite reference books for rabbits. The book covers all aspects of rabbit care from getting a rabbit, to housing, feeding, training, behavior problems, illness, and death. The format is easy to read and specific information is easy to find. The Appendix offers some great resources on education, activities, rescues, publications, shopping, and registries. The book brings together both ARBA and the House Rabbit Society. It knocks neither and presents both sides; so its a safe pick-up for a believer of either spectrum. I recommend it in addition to "Rabbit Health in the 21st Century" by Kathy Smith as the only two books a beginner needs.

Great for novices

I bought this book for my sister, who just got her first rabbit. We were dazzled by the fabulous range of information provided by this book. Pay especial attention to the extensive appendices -- invaluable!

Very informative and useful

This book is a must-have for new rabbit owners, and even people who've had rabbits for years could benefit from it. It explains the responsibilities that come with caring for a rabbit, and it does so in very clear language...but it doesn't make you feel like a dummy. It outlines the physical needs of rabbits, but I especially appreciate how it addresses rabbits' often-overlooked psychological needs as well. This is a great starter book...I recommend bringing it home the same day as your new bunny, like I did.

It is like Rabbit 101

Excellent book for first time rabbit guardians. Its the next best thing to speaking fluent rabbit. Its easy to understand and packed with very useful information. Its a good companion book for the House Rabbit Handbook or Why does my rabbit...? books. It is definately a good investment.
