Indoor rabbits will probably live longer, up to twelve years. Outdoor rabbits generally live 2-3 years. Indoor rabbits are safer from poor weather conditions. When it is raining and cold, you may not go out to feed or check on your rabbit. He, too, is cold and lonely.
Heat is intolerable to rabbits.
Temperature extremes can take a toll on a rabbit. They play and enjoy socializing just as we do. Every morning I am awakened by Maia licking my face. When I sit on the floor, she runs to my side for petting. At bedtime, she parks herself in the doorway to watch over me while I sleep.
