🐰 RABBIT AWARENESS WEEK 🐰
This week is dedicated to promoting the health, welfare and happiness of our much loved bunnies🐰
So here are a few essential tips to ensure your bunnies stay at their happiest and healthiest🐰
🥕 Provide a spacious hutch or enclosure: Rabbits need plenty of room to hop, play, and explore. Ensure their living space is large enough for them to stretch out and stand on their hind legs. Consider giving them access to a safe, secure outdoor area for fresh air and exercise.
🥕 A balanced diet: A rabbit's diet should primarily consist of hay, which helps maintain their dental health and digestive system. Supplement it with fresh vegetables like kale, carrots, and spinach. Limit fruit intake due to its high sugar content.
🥕 Fresh water at all times: Make sure your rabbit always has access to clean, fresh water. Consider using a drip bottle or a heavy ceramic bowl to prevent tipping.
🥕 Enrichment and toys: Rabbits are intelligent creatures that need mental stimulation. Provide them with toys, tunnels, and objects they can chew on to prevent boredom and keep their teeth healthy. Hide treats or hay to encourage foraging and natural behaviours.
🥕 Social interaction: Rabbits are social animals, and they thrive on companionship. Consider having at least two rabbits to keep each other company, or spend plenty of time bonding with your bunny through gentle petting and play.
🥕 Regular veterinary care: Just like any other pets, rabbits need routine check-ups and vaccinations.
