However if the thought of your television blowing up (lol) doesn't worry ya, I found this :-)

We have 2 indoor rabbits (one male one female) and training them to be indoor rabbits is a piece of cake.
You will need one bowl for food (alfalfa ,etc.) veggies can be put directly on the floor, one bowl for water(rabbits rather drink from bowl than the drip system and once you have found out where they go when they need a toilet just put there a litter tray and in it put some of the wee and poo the rabbit had done previous.
In no time you will have an indoor rabbit
; the only problem is that like humans the like company, so another rabbit would be a good idea.
Just make sure that electric cables are unreachable. ie by protecting them with white electrical conduit.
Good luck

divegirl - Cheers for your answer. Well, when i first got her she had to be kept inside as i only had a cage at the time...and she was really chirpy and happy but since getting her a hutch and putting her outside she has just been really miserable and jumpy and when i do let her in the house for a hop around as the garden isnt secure - there is problems getting her to go back outside hehe!x
