Is it hard to keep a rabbit healthy?
My sister had rabbits when we were kids and I'm trying to remember how it is. I don't think it's particularly harder to keep a rabbit healthy--it's just harder to tell when they aren't feeling good. If your dog is sick, you can tell by the way it acts. Rabbits, hamsters, etc pretty much hate you 24/7, so you can't really tell.

Maybe it's time to pick out a family dog? Having a bunny isn't as enriching as loading up the dog in the car and going camping, IMHO.
