Shark,
Alrighty, that's fine if you have to work with what you have. Just make sure the cage is large enough (spanning at least three times the length of the rabbit spread out (I.e. laying down)) The cage must also be large enough to have a large litterbox. And most importantly, make sure the cage doesn't have a wire bottom. Rabbits are very susceptible to pododermatitis (sore hocks/feet). If the cage does have a wire bottom, make sure to cover all of it with either card board, towel(s), or carpet. And also remember that rabbits need at least 6-8 hours a day out of their cage in a bunny proofed room ;)
