These are somethings that you will need for your new rabbit. I have done a little comparative shopping for you all online but I'm pretty sure that you can get some of this stuff a little cheaper.
1. If you want to build a bunny condo, you will need:
- 3 packs of 100 count 4" zip ties ($1.50/pack)
- 2 boxes of wire grid storage cubes ($18.88/pack at Walmart)
- 1 roll of 3' x 25' poultry fence ($14.98/roll at Home Depot)
- 3 cotton bath towels ($2.00/ea)
- 2 boxes of medium binder clips ($1.29/box at Office Depot)
- 20 standard sized bricks (0.50/brick)
- 2 bathroom shower liners ($2.00/ea)
TOTAL: $79.82
2. These are essential condo accessories:
- water bottle ($5.49 for 16 oz at Petsmart)
- heavy bowl for pellets ($2.99 for 4.5" x 1.75" at Petsmart)
- litter box ($4.99 for 14" x 10.25" at Petsmart)
- box of 12 count kitty litter box liners ($3.99/box at Petco)
TOTAL: $17.46
3. Your bunny needs the following things in his diet:
- hay ($3.00/bale)
- pellet feed ($8.00/bag)
- vegetables
I looked on the Petsmart and Petco websites and all of their hay was WAY overpriced. I typically buy Kaytee Brand hay from Walmart for about $3.00/bale but it is not on their website. Also, pellet feed is extremely varied. I will talk later about what makes a good pellet feed.
TOTAL: $11.00 +
4. My rabbit really likes these treats and store bought toys:
- Kaytee Healthy Bits ($1.49/package)
- Muchable Shred-A-Box ($4.69/package of 4 at Petsmart)
- Nature Ball ($2.99/ea at Petsmart)
- Carrot and Alfalfa Twists ($1.99/package at Petsmart)
TOTAL: $11.16
These are the basic stuff that you'll need for your rabbit. Please shop around for the larger items like the wire storage cubes, poultry fence, and the cage accessories because I am not sure these are the best deals.
