IT'S BUNNY TIME🐇
Did you know?
80% of your rabbits diet should be good quality feeding hay? This helps them to burr down their teeth that are constantly growing and helps prevent dental disease. There are so many different types of hay for your rabbit to discover and you can even add forage for enrichment. Hay does not have to be boring and adding dried herbs or flowers is a great way to encourage natural behaviour

RABBIT AWARENESS WEEK.
Did you know?

Your Rabbits' Diet
Are rabbits herbivores?
Choosing the best rabbit food for your bunnies can seem confusing. They are complex animals that need a balanced diet with the right mix of fibre, vitamins and minerals to stay happy and healthy.

They are herbivores, this means rabbits need a plant-based diet with lots of fibre. Fibre is a key part of their diet and it keeps your rabbits’ digestive system healthy and moving, helping to prevent illnesses such as gut stasis. An easy way to get lots of great fibre in their diet is to make sure your rabbits have unlimited access to good quality, dust extracted feeding hay or fresh grass.

It’s a good idea to always monitor your rabbit’s weight by weighing them regularly. This helps you to keep an eye on their overall health too. If you have any concerns about your rabbit’s weight, or if your rabbit is not eating, seek the advice of your vet.

Rabbit dictionary
What are they trying to say?
Did you know rabbits eat their poo? And it’s really healthy for them! Rabbits need lots of fibre to stay healthy.

Rabbits can’t get all the essential nutrients they need the first time they eat their food. The first time they eat something, like tasty hay, the digestible fibre moves through their gut and is excreted as caecotrophs, which are soft, sticky droppings. Your rabbit will then eat these droppings to get the rest of the vital nutrients. The second time they’re digested they are excreted as round, hard droppings.

This is why lots of fibre, found in hay and good quality nuggets, is so important!

Thankfully he's now back home safe and well.
