Catalpa "beans" are actually seed pods. Generally speaking, seeds are rich in protein and fat, so they aren't healthy for rabbits.

Catalpa isn't listed on any of the poisonous plants for rabbits list, but it isn't on anyone's recommended plants lists, either (see related links below, for example).

Most experts would recommended staying away from unknown plants, and just giving your rabbit plants that you know are safe. But, if you're going to give catalpa to your rabbit anyway, then be smart about it:

Generally speaking, leaves and twigs are healthy for rabbits on a regular basis, but legumes, seeds, beans, etc. are not healthy and should only be given as an occasional treat, if at all. See the related question below for more info and helpful links about a healthy rabbit diet.

Whenever you give your rabbit a new kind of food, start with just a tiny amount, like a bite or two, and for the next two days watch your rabbit closely for any signs of ill-health. Be ready to bring your rabbit to the vet if something goes wrong, and don't give the rabbit any other new foods at this time so that you'll know what made her sick, if she gets sick. If your rabbit is fine after a few days, you can try increasing the portion size, but keep watching for signs of sickness. See the related questions below for details and links about rabbit health and vets.
