Rabbits can be both excellent pets and versatile livestock animals in Alaska. They offer an array of sizes, colors and coat choices to fit most any project or situation. They can be raised in much smaller spaces and at less cost than most other livestock, and they reproduce more often for a steady supply of protein. Rabbits can be house trained to live inside, out of a cage, and to use a litter box, making them ideal pets for all ages. A rabbit may live as long as a dog or a cat, so keep this in mind, along with all aspects of animal keeping, when considering a rabbit for a pet.
