Basic information! I think more for someone looking into getting a rabbit than all ready has one!

The author has lots of experience with 4 H Clubs and many years spent in breeding and caring for rabbits. Her love of these animals shines through in this book. It is a comprehensive guide for selecting a pet rabbit, providing a good home, and information on everyday care. Richards divides her study of rabbits by small, medium and large breeds, lop rabbit breeds and fur breeds. She advises waiting at least eight to nine weeks before separating a rabbit from mothers and introducing the rabbit to a calm environment. The diet mainstay should be a good rabbit pellet food, and owners should expect complete molting once or twice a year. Richards talks about tooth and nail care and preparing the home for a pet rabbit. Rabbits may be kept indoors or out. She explains how to build a rabbit hutch. There are tips for training a rabbit when its behavior becomes unmanageable.
I would highly recommend this book for anyone considering a rabbit for a pet. All the basics are covered, and the book is easy to read for any age. Those considering professional breeding might want to consider this an introduction, before considering advanced research.

Muito superficial e traz informações bem questionáveis.

What can I say? It must have been in one of my weak moments. The picture of the cute little bunnies and a freebie Kindle book. Who couldn't resist? I grabbed it then sit it aside for another time. And found it again when inbetween fictional stories.
I had hoped there would be lots of pictures of rabbits in this ebook. I love rabbits but there isn't room in our small apartment for another pet. But at least I could look at the pictures. Nope. The only picture is on the cover.
This didn't spoil it for me, though. This little book is chocked full of information about finding, care and feeding of rabbits, even a bit on breeding these little sweeties. I was quite amazed at how much there was to learn, beyond what I already knew from the rabbits we had when my adult children were small.
This would be a great book for those thinking of buying bunnies for loved ones for Easter. One needs to know what they are getting into, and there are too many rabbits that end up at the animal shelters shortly after the holidays. For those who are thinking about it seriously, try the shelter after reading the book. Have the home bunny-ready with kitty litter set up. They make great indoor pets. Also, know the breeds so that you get just what you are looking for in a pet.

~Disclaimer I received this book for free in a giveaway.~
This book is useful for folks contemplating having a pet rabbit. I don't see it being very useful to folks who already do. This book does not cover breeding.
Moving on. Problem number one: the book is not well edited. It has several errors including where it states that it is an ebook.
Problem number two: the book spends a ridiculous amount of time covering breeds and not giving any super useful information about the breeds beyond coloration, size and maybe a quick note on temperament.
Problem number three: most of the information could be looked up on google quickly. There is no real insight into the care of rabbits.
Pros: book is useful if you are thinking about getting a rabbit and it is a quick read that can help you decide if you want to invest more time in this with further research before getting a pet rabbit.
If you get it free for kindle it is may be worth a look.

If you are looking to get a pet rabbit, this has an exhaustive list of rabbit breeds and which ones make the best pets as well as which to avoid as pets, to help choose the right fit. We tend to think about this when choosing a pet dog, but not a rabbit, so this is an amazing resource to help on that front.
The author is very knowledgeable and communicates clearly to help new pet owners how to care for their rabbits for optimum health and enjoyment. Great read!

Good Book
Great book. It helped my child learn about rabbits before we got one, especially the breed chart. Great book again, I reccomended for rabbits owners or anyone soon to be rabbit owners.

I loved this book!!! It is hard to find a book where it talks about pet rabbits. This was very simple and very informative. I would buy this for myself and for others. The one thing I will say about this book is that it needs color pictures, other than that it is perfect.
