What do I feed my Rabbit?

Rabbits are grass-eaters in the wild so a pet rabbit should get 95% good quality hay, supplemented by a couple of egg-cups full of complete pellet food like e.g. Excel rabbit food. You can give vegetables as treats, but too much vegetables will make the rabbit overweight, which is not good for the gut-system.

My rabbit is not eating - What can I do?

If a rabbit is not eating, there is often an underlaying problem like dental problems, pain, gut stasis (when the guts stop moving) or stress. A rabbit which is not eating should be checked over by a vet.

How old can my rabbit get?

The average life-span of a well kept rabbit is six to eight years.
