Diet FAQ

Is it okay for my bunny to eat dog or cat food?
It is very dangerous for a rabbit to snack on dog or cat food. These foods are designed for carnivores, not for herbivores. They are high in protein, fat, and grain-based carbohydrates. Although rabbits can eat small amounts of dog or cat food and appear to be normal, rabbits also have very very sensitive digestive systems, and something that doesn't agree with them can over time quickly send them into shock and a downward spiral. Excessive levels of protein can lead to kidney damage, and excessive levels of fat and carbohydrates can lead to obesity. Keep all dog and cat food out of the reach of your rabbit!
