Rabbits - How long do rabbit's live when there teeth are regularely trimmed?


Expert: Samantha Sharp - 11/23/2006

Question
What's the life span of a rabbit...if it's teeth have to be trimmed everyday and it is 6 years old and it's a dward male rabbit.How long do you think it will live for?

Answer
There is no need to trim his teeth unless he has malocullusion. I have had rabbits live 10-12 years before. I think the record for a house rabbit is 23 years. It really depends on how well he is taken care of, if he remains disease free, and quality of food and hay he is given to how long he will live.
