A rabbit's page has to work for someone meeting the animal at feeding time with no chance to ask you questions. Lead with identification in a fresh order: the rabbit's name and sex, colour and markings, an age estimate, the weight you expect, and any microchip number, then your clinic's number and an emergency contact. Add a clear photograph, because coat pattern is often the quickest way for a sitter to confirm which rabbit in a pair they are holding.
Hay First: The Daily Routine
Rabbits eat differently from most small pets, and the routine block should make that unmistakable: unlimited grass hay available day and night, a measured egg-cup-sized portion of pellets for an adult, leafy greens each day, and fresh water that never runs dry. Say where each item lives and how much disappears on a normal day. A sitter who understands that hay is the main food, not bedding decoration, will also understand why a drop in hay intake belongs on the health-watch list below.
Housing, Litter and Handling
Describe the setup as the rabbit experiences it: a roomy enclosure joined to an exercise area, or a rabbit-proofed room, with a litter tray lined with hay, a hideaway for retreat, and safe toys to chew. Note favourite foods, usual rest times and preferred hiding spots, plus how this rabbit likes to be approached and lifted. Rabbits startle at looming hands and can injure themselves struggling, so the handling note should be plain about moving slowly, supporting the hindquarters, and letting the rabbit come out rather than pulling it from cover.
The Health-Watch List
Finish with appetite, droppings, weight, front teeth and hay intake, plus vaccination dates and the dates of any previous gut episodes. State the emergency rule in plain terms on the page itself: a rabbit that stops eating or produces far fewer droppings needs a veterinarian the same day. General information like this helps a new reader notice change early; only a vet who examines the rabbit can diagnose what a change means, so the profile's job is accurate history, not conclusions.
One Version, Kept Current
Change the page whenever food, weight or housing changes, rather than saving edits for the next appointment, and give copies to your emergency contact and regular sitter so nobody works from an old version. Pet Passport in KinsLe stores the profile alongside dates, notes and vet history for this rabbit, keeping a single version ready for visits, travel, boarding or handoffs.
