The Importance of Hay to Your Rabbit

Your rabbit needs a varied diet to keep healthy and happy. Start with a high-quality rabbit pellet, greens and other nutritious vegetables plus some fruit for snacks. Most importantly, your rabbit needs to have access to hay at all times. Hay helps keep your rabbit’s digestive system working well and all the gnawing helps keep your rabbit’s teeth trim. Alfalfa hay has too much protein for adult rabbits so your best choice is timothy hay. You can buy bags of timothy hay from a local pet supply store. You may also find fresh timothy hay from a feed supply store or online. This fresh hay is yummy and supplies additional moisture. Give your rabbit fresh hay everyday and throw away the old hay especially if it is soiled. After a short period you will get an idea of how much hay your rabbit needs each day. For more information, contact your Folsom, CA vet.
