When it comes to providing for our pets we will go to any length to ensure their comfort and happiness. However, there are times when amenities may be cost prohibitive. But owning the best rabbit hutch doesn’t have to mean it will be an expensive rabbit home. Here we will discuss ways to get that best rabbit hutch that will be the talk of the neighborhood and keep your bunnies cozy while not over spending.
ARE YOU CRAFTY?
YEP! I CAN TOTALLY BUILD THE BEST RABBIT HUTCH.
Fantastic! You’re a DIY person or one that knows their way around a toolbox. This method will be the most effective way to not break the bank. A simple internet search for designs or plans for the best rabbit hutch (or the old fashioned way and seek out ideas at your local bookstore) revealed a lot of ideas and instructions on how to build a rabbit hutch using parts that are easily accessible from your neighborhood hardware store. The pieces you need may very well already be in your possession from previous projects. You never know what might be hiding in your garage.

A great complement to an already beautiful backyard, these rabbit hutches can expand into structures that do more than just house your bunnies. Not only will you have the best rabbit hutch and be the talk of the neighborhood, installing solar panels or a rooftop herb garden to these buildings creates multiple functions and keeps you even greener.

Much like this idea above, the best rabbit hutch sometimes is the best garden option too, especially if you live in an urban area with a small yard. What better way to grow fresh basil, rosemary, mint, sage and any other commonly used herb in your recipes.
NOPE. I HAVE NO ARTISTIC ABILITY OR TIME. DOES THAT MEAN I CAN’T THE BEST RABBIT HUTCH?
Okay, so you don’t know the difference between a flat head or a phillips head screwdriver. That’s fine. There are many options out there ranging from plastic to wood to the durable cypress fir that Advantek utilizes in our bunny hutches.
Shopping for the best rabbit hutch that is the perfect match will take a little research. You want to make sure it is ideal for your bunnies… we totally understand why. Since we all love our pets, we may tend to overthink the process. This is normal and nothing to worry about. We all want to provide the best quality that we can.
Start simple.
Where do you live? Is it urban, suburban or country? If you have a flat in Providence with no defined walls, how much space can you designate to your furry family members? What if you live on a farm with endless outdoor space? Or what if you just want the best rabbit hutch in the living room? Or just outside?
Do you need to worry about predators? While we never want to think about it, we do need to be proactive and not reactive when it comes to protecting our pets. Do you live in coyote or snake country? Don’t forget about the safety of your rabbits when searching for the best rabbit hutch. The Stilt House by Advantek is a great option that won’t break the bank.

There’s also the old fashioned way. Go to your local brick and mortar locations and compare. While we may spend most of the time on the internet doing the research there’s still something about going out there and taking your pet with you (many pet stores welcome our furry family members inside) and letting them sniff (or gnaw) out what the best rabbit hutch is for them.
The biggest thing to remember is that the best rabbit hutch you choose is primarily used for sleeping. Confining the rabbits inside a hutch all hours is not healthy for them.

Advantek Rabbit Hutches are great. I’ve spent a few hours researching them and have written an article about all the various models. I already have hutches for my bunnies before hearing about Advantek (I’ve got mini Rex rabbits), but next time I need one I’m thinking about the Stilt Rabbit Hutch – Dan.
