1 Havana Rabbits for sale in Menai Bridge, Isle of Anglesey

The Havana rabbit, also known as the Havana bunny, is a charming breed that originated in the Netherlands in the late 19th century. Despite its name, it has no direct connection to Havana, Cuba; the name comes from the rich chocolate-brown color of Havana cigars, which its fur resembles. This medium-sized breed is known for its compact, commercial-type body and dense, soft, glossy fur. Typically weighing between 4.5 to 6.5 lbs, the Havana rabbit displays a cobby shape with a rounded head and short, erect ears. Temperamentally, the Havana rabbit is gentle, docile, and intelligent, making it a great choice for families and first-time rabbit owners. It is also often litter-trained due to its curious and friendly nature. Suitable as a house rabbit, it requires daily exercise and a diet rich in high-quality hay, fresh greens, and pellets. Regular grooming, especially during shedding seasons, is essential to maintain its beautiful coat. The Havana rabbit is not only a beloved pet but also a popular show breed in the UK, admired for its distinct dark chocolate or black fur and calm disposition.
