  Hello!
  
  I’m new to rabbit owning. Me and my girlfriend bought our first rabbit a few days ago after deciding we want a pet. We decided on Muffin, a cute baby rabbit. Really cute… she’s light brown and white. I’ll get a photo taken and post it later. Anyway, we’ve only had her a few days and she’s settling into the house well. I think she’s already starting to like me, at least as soon as her cage opens and I pt my hand in she comes scampering over for a sniff and is fine with me picking her up and holding her.
  
  Anyway, I live in Taiwan (but I’m from England originally) don’t have a backyard unfortunately but when Muffin is bigger we’re going to buy her a leash and take her for a walk and a play around the local park so she can get some fresh air and have a dig.

  Wellcome and congrats to your new bunny! It seems she likes you already =) We love bunny pics here, so we’ll be very happy if you post some!
  
  Rabbits can live excellent quality lives indoors if they get time out of their cage so they can exercise and play. The outdoors is full of dangers for a bunny, so we generally don’t recommend it here.

  Welcome! I can’t wait to see piccies!
  
  Leashes aren’t best for bunnies because they can easily injure themselves by trying to pull away. If you must take her outside, I would recommend a playpen on untreated grass, although going outside is not a requirement.
