When our last bunny joined his mate across the bridge 3 years ago, I got rid of all our bun supplies. I thought I'd never go back to the constant care and eventual heartbreak. But now, husband will be bringing home a year-and-a-half old neutered male next month after a business trip. (The bun was dumped on a friend of ours in Missouri.) We're using this time to find the perfect cage. Husband hates the thought of the bunny sitting in his own waste and is adamant that we'll use a wire floor and drop pan as we did with our others. I know, I know - it's not recommended, and the little prince will need resting mats and lots of floor time. But we never had hock problems with our others and we'll be careful. Additionally, we'd consider getting a companion bun down the road, so we we're thinking about the Expandable Hoppity Habitat Rabbit Cage. You can connect one or two more units to it (in either an L or a Z shape) and have the doors open between the units or not, if bonding isn't going well. martinscages.com is also an interesting site. Anyone out there have any advice?

I can't recommend a wire-bottom cage. Even with a resting board, there's too much risk of injury. If the rabbit is litterbox trained, there's no reason not to have just a regular solid floor and a litterbox with absorbable litter. Even if the rabbit is not litterbox trained, clean-up is easier and more thorough when dealing with a solid floor than with wire.

Many of us used to do things one way, until we found a better alternative thru research and trial and error.  Just because your previous rabbits were in wire-bottom cages, that doesn't mean you can't do something better for this rabbit.  Especially since you've gotten rid of everything.  This is a good chance to start over.
