Do Rabbit Hutches Smell?

But indoor rabbits only smell if they are kept in unsanitary conditions. So, whether a rabbit lives indoors in a cage or outdoors in a hutch, she has the potential to be smelly. But if we clean her 'home' regularly, the odor will be minimal.

Do rabbits smell bad indoors?

But don't rabbits smell bad? No they don't! Rabbits themselves are very clean animals with odourless fur and they fastidiously groom themselves all day. Only their urine smells so as long as you keep their living area clean (spot clean every few days and a full clean-out once a week) you shouldn't have a problem.

Is it cruel to keep rabbits in a hutch?

Rabbits need safe, spacious accommodation. To fail to provide this is definitely animal cruelty. But a hutch, as part of a larger enclosure, can be a safe, comfortable home for your animals, indoors or out.
