Could my hamster play with my rabbit?

Question

like if i supervise them? if not why?

Answer 1

Probably....I`m Not So Sure About Hamsters, But A Know That Rabbits Are Good With Almost All Pets. My Bunny Plays With My Cat All The Time! And My Bunny Is Very Nice To Everyone. Try Holding The Hammy In Front Of The Bunny, And Let Them Interact! If Either Are Bad, Don`t Let Them, If They Just Sniff Eachother Or Something Then Your Fine!

Good Luck With Your Pets!

Answer 2

i second wanderer's opinion

Answer 3

no cause theyll reproduce into an army

Answer 4

i dont see y not

Answer 5

if they are about the same age then i dont see why not. just make sure you watch them for the first couple of hours because just because there not fighting at first doesnt mean they wont later.

Answer 6

it just depends how they act around each other.

Answer 7

As long as both are females they should be fine, two males would hut each other. Defiantly supervise them, and if they scratch each other immediately separate them. Try it and let me know how it goes!

Answer 8

whatever floats your boat

Answer 9

Of course! I had a hamster and a rabbit that lived in the same cage and they were great together! You could supervise for a little bit when you put them together for the first time just to make sure everything is fine and then you can leave them. Hope my advice helps!

Answer 10

No!  The rabbit would probably think the hamster is food!

Answer 11

Yeah, go ahead. If you are there, there isn't a problem. I mean, if you LET the rabbit attack the hamster, or eat it, then...shame on you. But if you protect the hamster, they'll both be fine.

Answer 12

I would say that's probably a bad idea.  Rabbits are really very territorial animals, and if your rabbit takes exception to your hamster being in its territory, you could end up with a dead hamster in only a moment or two.  Plus, rabbits are a lot larger than hamsters, what may seem to you and the rabbit to be gentle 'play' is likely pretty traumatic and frightening to a hamster because of their tiny size.  Being chased by or batted around by a larger animal is very frightening to any prey animal.

Answer 13

Am sure both will play with each other

Answer 14

Have they interacted at all?

Does one know the other even exists?

What I would do at first is put their cages next to each other so thy get to know each other by look, sound, and smell. This is usually how you introduce two of the same type of animal, but I don't see why it wouldn't work for this.

After about a week or so, I would see how the act together.

You shouldn't have a problem, but if they don't know each other one might end up horribly afraid of the other, setting your goal back a bit.

Answer 15

are they both euphanisms?

Answer 16

no, they will fight. why would you want to anyway .. they are different species and don't speak the same language.

Answer 17

You'd just have to introduce them and see how they respond to each other.  Just don't leave them alone!  You know that though.

Answer 18

yes. I think they will be great company for one another and play together.
