The smell is strong only if you don't clean it for a long time, but there is almost no smell at all.If you don't plan to let him out for a walk, you need a spacious cage. If walking - only under the supervision, otherwise the end of all wires in the apartment. Drying and feeding all is not difficult, sell special food + give fruits, vegetables, twigs, crumbs. My personal opinion - the rabbit is not very interesting, but for a small child is suitable. But it is necessary to explain to the child that the animal is not a toy, and rip out his mustache and pull the tail is not worth it. As for the content - if the pet is given enough time every day, it doesn't need a pair. In addition, a single animal is easier to tame. But remember that life in this case should not turn into a solitary confinement in a narrow cage for him, constantly communicate with him as much as possible, then he will be quite tame. They are not very good with brains, but you can accustom them to the name or the calling intonation, so that at least at the call they crawled out from under the closet. With good care they live up to 8-10 years. I would advise to take not long-haired - less problems, no tangles. There is, however, one more difficulty, but it may not happen - it all depends on the nature of the rabbit. The fact that females, when growing up, may start to rush to the hands and behave aggressively. This is due to puberty and the need to mate to calm down. It's not the fact that a pregnant female will become calmer, on the contrary, she may begin to defend herself and future offspring even more fiercely. But again, this behavior is very individual and this problem might not arise if the animal is absolutely tame. Good luck?

It's okay, but it stinks.
If you buy it in a store, it won't get infected, they take a certificate from a vet. You'll have to let him out of his cage because he needs space. And then you have to watch him - chew everything, especially the wallpaper and the wire. If he changes it in time, he won't smell from the ornamental one.
If you clean and take carezakayto smell will not. And if you are afraid to get infected there is such a thing as inoculation current deskorativnye they are small and the girl may destroy a rabbit or crush.
Rabbit-the same cat, accustomed to - will go to the litter box, respectively, no smell. He does not need a pair. I have a walk around the apartment, meet at the threshold when I come, jump on his lap, pettes and licks his hands that he petted. No child will catch zazza, my 5-year-old daughter is healthy. Fun pet, but don't forget it's a rodent!
friend of mine has one. Sits in her cage chewing grass. The smell is still there, but not as pungent as, say, from a dog. He doesn't need a pair if you don't want to give your apartment to rabbits.On petting, he doesn't react, i.e. more like a decorative object. If he gets out of the cage, chews everything in a row a little brain, you can not not cram into it. If you buy in the store, most of the time the animal is healthy, although it is not superfluous to go to the doctor. But in my opinion, not the best animal for the house, a cat is better.
I have a cat. His name is Yura and he is 17 years old.
