Rabbit cages are the structures used to house rabbits, an increasingly popular pet species. The cages can be seen as falling into two major categories: indoor rabbit cages and outdoor rabbit cages.
Indoor rabbit cages are commonly used by people who don't have outdoors space where they can keep their pets. Of course, the indoor rabbit cages can also be used by people with outdoors space, but who still prefer to keep their pets indoors for one reason or another.
Outdoors rabbit-cages are also referred to as hutches. These are the traditional dwelling spaces for the rabbit, which has for long been seen as an outdoors pet, before it found way into the house. Indeed, most classical literature still refers to the hutch as the automatic dwelling place for the rabbit, this being literature written at a time when the idea of keeping rabbits indoors was yet to find mainstream acceptance.
Indoor rabbit cages differ from outdoor rabbit cages in a number of ways.
For the most part, the indoor rabbit-cages tend to be aesthetic features, rather than 'houses' in the traditional sense of the word. This is because when the rabbit is kept indoors, it is already housed by the accommodating room, so that the cage only serves as supplementary housing for the pet. On the other hand, when the rabbit is kept outdoors (in the outdoor rabbit cage), it has the hutch as its only housing - where housing is taken to refer to protection against the elements. So we end up with a situation where the outdoor rabbit has to be built with the practical considerations that you would have to make when building any other house. The indoor rabbit cage, on the other hand, being a part of the furniture in the room where it gets place, has to be aesthetically pleasing (like any other piece of furniture).
Most indoor rabbit-cages tend to be mainly made from metal (with metal accounting for most of their structural components), whereas most outdoor rabbit cages - also called hutches as previously mentioned - tend to be mostly made from wood. Of course, the keyword here is 'mostly' because there is no reason not to deploy a largely metallic rabbit cage outdoors, just as there is no real reason not to deploy a largely wooden rabbit indoors. It is just that most hutches on sale tend to be wooden, with most indoors rabbit cages on sale being largely metallic - so that if you are shopping for a hutch or a cage, you are likely to end up with a wooden and a metallic structure respectively. Even the names say it really: you expect a cage to be largely metallic, with a hutch being essentially a wooden structure, from a linguistic point of view.
It might also be added that most indoor rabbit-cages tend to be costlier than outdoor rabbit cages. Of course, this is just another generalization: as there are many hutches that cost more than some indoor rabbit-cages. On average, and all other factors held constant though, the typical indoors rabbit cage tends to cost more than the average hutch.
