What is the lifespan of a mini-rex rabbit?

Evryone says something different. Like one website said 6 years. Another said 8-10 years. Another said some other age! Can someone narrow it down please? I have a mini rex rabbit who will be turning 5 in July. He has a very large enclosure in a room that no one uses (except excersise). Can maybe an animal expert or vet answer this?





Thanks,

The average lifespan of an outdoor rabbit is around 5 years. Indoors, 8-10. Some rabbits will live well into their teens. I lost my oldest rabbit last month at the age of 14. Your rabbit should have several good years left at least if you care for him properly and he eats a proper diet.What is the lifespan of a mini-rex rabbit?
Well, that's hard to do. A healthy bunny with no health complications *should* live to be at least 7 or 8 years old. Many bunnies live up to ten years old, and I think the oldest rabbit on record was 13. It really depends on your rabbit, their genetics and their overall health. Unfortunately, because rabbits can succumb to so many illnesses and injuries, many do not live to see 'old age'.





At the moment I have an eight year old Mini Rex.
I would say it's around 8-10 for indoor rabbits that are well cared for. I currently have a female mini rex rabbit that is 10 going on 11. I do believe she is at least partly blind though because her eyes are a little cloudy. It doesn't seem to harm her though.
