Yes they can but only as a treat! Fruits are high in sugar which can lead to health problems in the long term and can also lead to tooth decay. An occasional blueberry or two won't hurt though.

Grapes are okay for rabbits, but only as an occasional treat. One or two grapes is definitely enough, and that's it for treats that day! (If you have a dwarf rabbit, one or even half a grape is enough. If you have a giant breed, two or three should be fine.) Most rabbits love grapes, but they are a very sugary fruit, so they really should be limited. Too many treats will make a rabbit sick.

Raisins (dried grapes) are also okay, so long as they're 100% pure (and not covered in any processed sugars or anything at all). Dried fruits are even more concentrated in sugars than fresh fruits, so they should be extra-limited in a rabbit's diet: one raisin or half a raisin is more than enough for an average-sized rabbits.

If you want to give your rabbits treats (like grape), then you should make sure the rabbit is leading a healthy lifestyle. A healthy rabbit diet consists of lots and lots of hay, high-quality pellets, and fresh leafy greens daily. Rabbits also need exercise outside their enclosures (i.e. cage, crate, condo, ex-pen) every single day.

See the related question below for more information and links about a healthy rabbit diet.

Like humans, it depends on individual tastes if rabbits will like grapes or not. Seedless is the best because there is a possibility that they will choke. Don't worry; the skins are fine.

More info about fresh fruits/veggies for rabbits: Stay away from white/light-coloured lettuce and cabbage as it is bad for their digestive system. Apples, carrots, and celery (cut up into chunks - the long strings can cause problems) are fine. Melon rinds are also fine, and it is useful because you don't waste too much food! I let my bunny play in the backyard and she loves dandelions and grass. Keep them hydrated and take them out for exercise.

A previous user wrote that corn and corn husks are fine, however corn is very dangerous for rabbits because they can't digest the hulls (the parts that get stuck in your teeth when you eat corn on the cob), and they can build up in the belly leading to gut impaction (and very serious illness). Corn is also very high in starches and sugars, which aren't healthy for rabbits. Dried, milled corn won't lead to gut impaction, but it's not healthy. There is very little information online about rabbits eating corn husks. Most experts would say "better safe than sorry" and not to feed your rabbit corn husks.

A previous user wrote to avoid all citrus fruits, but other people say that orange is a fine treat for rabbits.

Um I would say no because Grape Juice has a lot sugar and calories that they should not eat. but however they might be able to drink pure fruit juice with no added ingredient's.

Yes guinea pigs can eat grapes. But make sure you take out the peps! They can only eat grapes once in a while due to all the sweetness that may harm the animal.

Yes they can but, as with any fruit, don't give your guinea pig too much. It may develop diarrhoea if you don't balance it with dry food.
