Convert your rabbit age to a human-year equivalent and life stage.

How rabbit years work

Rabbits mature fast. The first year is roughly 20 human years, and each year after adds about 6. Well-cared-for indoor rabbits often live 8 to 12 years, with some reaching their teens.

Life stages

Kit (0-6 months)

Rapid growth, neutering recommended.

Young adult (6 months-3 yrs)

Active and playful, prime years.

Mature (3-6 yrs)

Watch weight and dental health.

Senior (6+ yrs)

More vet checks; watch for arthritis and gut issues.

Why it matters

Rabbits hide illness, so knowing your rabbit is a senior helps you catch dental and digestive problems early. A rabbit-savvy vet is essential.
