Here's why:
* Physical Maturity: Rabbits reach sexual maturity around 4-6 months old, but they continue to develop physically and mentally for a few more months.
* Lifespan: The average lifespan of a rabbit is 5-8 years. A three-year-old rabbit is about halfway through its lifespan.
* Behavioral Maturity: By three years old, your rabbit should have a well-established personality and routine.
Important Notes:
* Breed Differences: Some rabbit breeds might mature a bit earlier or later than others.
* Individual Variations: Just like humans, rabbits can have individual differences in their development and maturity.
Enjoy your mature bunny! They can be wonderful companions, and their personalities often continue to develop throughout their lives.
