The Toy rabbit has become one of the favorite pets in the world in recent years. A few years ago it was quite difficult to find them, but today their popularity has made them a very common animal in all pet stores.
Tips are very affectionate and fun pets and it is not surprising that many people choose them as pets. The Toy rabbit also has the advantage of being much smaller than rabbits of other species. Its small size not only makes it look like a puppy throughout its life, but it also has very practical advantages since they require much less care and their cage can be smaller. Remember that rabbits are animals that generally need a lot of space to live.

If you do not have enough space to have a normal rabbit cage, you may be able to purchase a Toy rabbit whose cages are much smaller. This explains, in part, the popularity that the breed has acquired in recent years.
On the other hand, Toy rabbits are, like other rabbits, very affectionate and sociable animals. This makes them a perfect pet for any family with young children. If you want to know more about what the Toy rabbit is like, pay close attention to what follows.

It is very rare that it exceeds this figure and in the event that an adult Toy rabbit exceeds a kilo and a half in weight, it is a clear sign that it is overweight.
- Ears: The ears of the Toy rabbit, or dwarf rabbit, are short and pointed and point upwards. This characteristic clearly distinguishes them from the dwarf belier rabbit whose ears point downwards.
