A very informative book and would recommend it for the novice rabbit owner. I wanted to get into breeding rabbits but wanted to be well informed before getting started. I found this book to be quite helpful.

Essential to know all about your new pet

Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2010

In order to get a new pet, you must learn all you can about them. You can't expect to have them for a short time cause some pets live a long time. They want to be loved and care for cause they are helpless without you.

Provides basics, but not much on behaviors

Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2003

Verified Purchase

This book covers how to take good care of a rabbit, but it doesn't say much about rabbit behaviors or instincts. It doesn't explain circling, spraying, nipping, digging, and other common rabbit behaviors.
The book primarily describes how to take care of a pet rabbit, and that information is thorough and well written. It is written simply enough for a child age 8+ to understand.

One of the Best Books on Bunny Care I Have Ever Read!!! :)

Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2009

I had desired a rabbit for a long time. In the mean time between when I decided I wanted one and when I got one, I researched them. I learned every aspect of their care and read every book I could find on them. This is by far one of the best books on caring for a rabbit I have ever read!

It is an abridged version of Your Happy Healthy Pet: How to Care for a Rabbit. But I think it is goof they abridged it. It has all of the vital information plus high quality pictures! The bunnies they chose to feature in the book are so cute! The information is comprehensive but not too detailed that it is boring. It gives straightforward advice and summarizes key points all throughout it. If you have a rabbit or want to get one, this is a must read!!!

2nd favorite book for new rabbit owners!

Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2002

My 1st favorite is The House Rabbit Society Handbook :)
I bought this book at the same time I bought my 2 baby lop-eared bunnies, Monticello and Jefferson. They are my babies and make me unbelievably happy! I never knew rabbits could be so entertaining, loving, and intelligent! This book was a life saver - I knew nothing about my new pets until I read it. I was especially grateful for the chapter on diseases. By advice of the book, I took my bunnies to the vet for a physical. I found that they had 2 common rabbit diseases that needed antibiotics. My vet called the pet store where I got them to warn them that all their bunnies had this illness - she probably saved 30 bunnies, including my babies - all thanks to the book! I went right home and read all about the illnesses. They are very healthy bunnies today :)

Good Rabbit Care Book, Great Pictures!

Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2003

THE ESSENTIAL RABBIT is a relatively recent addition to rabbit care books. It contains all of the basic information about rabbit care and has more of a focus on keeping rabbits indoors which is helpful. The author paid great attention to the organization and layout of the book which makes the book easy to use. While other rabbit books such as WHY DOES MY RABBIT by Anne McBride and THE HOUSE RABBIT HANDBOOK contain more in depth information, this book would be wonderful to use with children. It is well organized and easy to read, so parents and children can use the book together.
There is one strength of this book over most of the other rabbit care books which may be a major reason why I purchased the book. I am an amateur photographer and this book has some of the best photographs of rabbits. It will give the reader plenty of ideas for photographing pets. I find it is simply a pleasure to rummage through the pages from time to time.

The Essential Rabbit (An Essential Book!)

Reviewed in the United States on December 12, 2000

As a first time rabbit owner, I found this book very helpful. It contains information on rabbits that you wouldn't even think about asking! This is a great book with a lot of useful information about selecting a rabbit, caring for your rabbit, the different breeds, and even little rabbit facts!
