Advantage (original formulation) had been recommended by rabbit veterinarians as flea control for our rabbits and used for 10+ years on several different rabbits without a single problem/adverse reaction. The new formulation (Advantage II), now has the Insect Growth Regulator (IGR) pyriproxyfen as an additional active ingredient (in addition to imidacloprid, the active ingredient in both formulations, and the only active ingredient in Advantage original formulation).

Yes, pyriproxyfen (and Advantage II) is safe for rabbits, but you should talk to your "rabbit-savvy" vet about this because:

  • The vet can tell you the proper dose: it's not the same for rabbits as it is for cats/dogs.
  • You shouldn't diagnose the problem yourself: what if you're wrong?
  • The rabbit needs a thorough physical exam to make sure there aren't any hidden secondary health problems.

What fake grass is safe for bunnies?

When selecting fake grass for bunnies, look for non-toxic, pet-safe materials that are free from harmful chemicals and additives. Polypropylene and polyethylene are often considered safe options, as they do not contain harmful substances. Additionally, ensure the grass has a soft texture to prevent injury to their sensitive paws. Always supervise your bunny with new materials until you are confident they are safe.
