Rabbit Awareness Week 🐇

🐰 It's day one of Rabbit Awareness Week 2024 - Healthy Diet, Happy Bunnies! and they're diving straight into the importance of a healthy diet for rabbits!

Whether one is a well-seasoned rabbit owner or just a bunny lover, there's something for everyone! So let's spread the word and make sure all bunnies are well-fed and thriving🥬

Diet tips and tricks:
- Muesli diets are unhealthy and can lead to selective feeding where your rabbit will chooose some components of their food in preference to others.
- Muesli diets can increase the risk of dental disease, Gutstasis, fly strike, reduce water intake and reduced fibre intake.
- 85-90% of your rabbits diet should be hay and help to improve dental health, digestive health and behavioural health.
- Your rabbit should be receiving a tablespoon of nuggets once daily (or twice if your rabbit is over 3.5kg).
- A handful of fresh greens should be provided twice daily alongside a constant supply of fresh water.

Stay tuned for more tips and info throughout the week!
