Hay and Your Pet Rabbit

Your pet rabbit needs a variety of foods to keep him healthy and happy. Start with a high-quality rabbit pellet, leafy greens and other crunchy vegetables. Small pieces of fruit make a nice treat. And your rabbit needs lots and lots of hay. Hay adds nutrition and roughage to keep your rabbit’s digestive system working well. And all that nibbling helps keep your rabbit’s teeth trim. Alfalfa hay has too much protein for adult rabbits so timothy hay is a better choice. You can buy small bales of timothy hay from a reputable pet supply store. You can also find fresh timothy hay at feed stores or online. This fresh hay is yummy and adds extra moisture. Remove and discard old hay daily. Be generous when providing your rabbit with hay and you can estimate how much he eats after a week or so. For more information, contact your Happy Valley, OR veterinarian.
