Providing information about house rabbit care including

 diet, behavior, housing and much more!

Hi! I’m “Broccoli Boy”

I will tell you

about rabbit digestion and diet. 

Click on any of my friends' pictures at the bottom of this page for more information

Here are a few facts:

• A rabbit’s digestive system makes up almost 20% of it’s weight!

• Your rabbit is a herbivore . . . a vegetarian.

• A rabbit's digestion is constantly in motion.

• Rabbits cannot vomit.

• The number one cause of house rabbit disease is a bad diet!

• Rabbits don’t see their food  right in front of them – it is a blind spot.  They smell it first.

• A rabbit has two types of waste and both are necessary to their health!

• Do not “fast” a rabbit - not even before surgery.  It is not necessary.

• A blockage in the digestive system is very serious and can be avoided with the right diet!

• If your bunny stops eating for 12 to 24 hours, this is an emergency.  Take your rabbit to the vet!
