📖 About rabbits.wiki
Why this site exists
rabbits.wiki is a community-built rabbit encyclopedia.
Rabbits hide pain and deteriorate fast — one skipped meal can be the start of a lethal emergency. Online rabbit-care information is a minefield of myths (cat hairball gels for rabbits, "teacup" breeds, carrots as a staple).
What we do differently: trace every claim to an authoritative veterinary source — House Rabbit Society, Merck Veterinary Manual, VCA, university veterinary schools, peer-reviewed literature.
Sourcing rules
- Sources must be real, clickable, and visited by the contributor
- Source tiers: 🟢 vet (veterinary authority) / 🟡 org (professional body) / 🟠 exp (owner experience — never sufficient alone for medical claims)
- Medical conclusions require at least two independent tier-🟢 sources
- Facts vs advice are separated; prescription drugs always flagged
- Where no authoritative data exists, we say so — never invent
- Brand-neutral: product data only, no recommendations or disparagement

The boundary of this site
This site can help you understand your rabbit's body, recognize emergency signals, and prepare — it cannot replace diagnosis, prescriptions, surgery, or anesthesia. Rabbit conditions progress within hours; when in doubt, contact a rabbit-savvy (exotic) vet immediately.
