A rabbits main diet will be rabbit pellets. Hay such as Timothy hay should also be available regularly. Fresh food such as fresh grasses, weeds, and veggies can be added as treats.
Fresh clean water should be available at all times. Hanging drip water bottles or open gravity fed waterer work best. If you want to avoid having your rabbit make a mess in the water go with a hanging water bottle. If your rabbit is going to be housed outdoors then go with an open gravity fed waterer so it can get in to cool off when it wants to.
Rabbits can be housed in a variety of ways. Wire cages are recommended for indoor enclosures and hutches are recommended for outdoor enclosures. I do recommend outdoor playpens be available as well for your rabbit to get the exercise it needs and have the ability to play and graze freely for some added stimulation.
Bedding isn't always necessary, especially for outdoor rabbits. If kept indoors in a cage you will want to have bedding to help cover any messes or odors. I personally like Carefresh bedding but really any bedding will do.
Rabbits don't all need a "litter box" per say but it is a good idea for your rabbit to have a designated potty spot. Your rabbit will create a potty spot naturally but if you want it to go in a particular area of it's enclosure add a litter box, pad, wood box, etc and places its droppings in that area. Eventually it will learn to go in this designated area. Rabbits want to keep their homes clean and will tend do only "soil" one area which makes them very easily potty trainable.
Your bunny will want a place to be able to go to rest and feel safe. This can be any time of wood box or soft hide. Rabbits normally live underground and this will simulate their safe space.
