What Pet Shops Don't Tell You

 

Once you have had a french lop rabbit you will never want any other breed!

French Lop rabbits are some of the friendliest and most sociable rabbits you could ever wish to meet.

French Lop rabbits are the teddy bears of the lop world, keeping their cuddly chunky faces into adulthood.

French Lop rabbits grow for the first year and "chunk out" for the next eight months - at eighteen months they are fully grown.

A healthy french lop rabbit could be anywhere from 12 to 15 pounds in weight, some are even heavier, there is no maximum weight in the french lop show world.

French Lops are not prone to illness due to their size as long as they are kept active - like any animal, a fat French Lop is a heart attack waiting to happen, so keep em fit and you will keep em longer!

One French Lop rabbit will not eat you out of house and home, twenty however, might, be warned they are addictive!

French Lop rabbits are no higher maintenance than any other rabbit.

French Lop rabbits make excellent house pets as they bond so well with humans and, once spayed or castrated, can be easily litter trained.

You do not need two French Lop rabbits if your new edition is going to get plenty of human interaction. This is merely a cunning ploy used by rescue centers and some pet shops to make an extra sale.

If you do get two French Lop rabbits they will merely reguard you as the food provider, if you want your French Lop rabbit to bond very closely with you and your family then only get one - and you will then become the rabbit’s companion!

When fully stretched out a French Lop can make around three foot in length nose to toes, so a large hutch, minimum 6ft, is required which is RSPCA recommendation size for a giant breed.  When it comes to French lops you cant give them too much space.

French Lops are naturally friendly, but, as with all animals you get our what you put in, the more time you spend with your French lop the more trusting of you it will become and he or she will have a nicer nature for this trust.

 

French lop rabbits are fantastic and you get a lot of rabbit for your money!   ha ha!
