first answer: No, this is not bad... the rabbit will eventually excrete it after a while.

disagreement: Actually, it is very bad for rabbits to eat carpet!! The rabbit will excrete it eventually if you're lucky: if you're not lucky, it can lead to GI stasis and death.

Carpet fibres are not digestible and they can clump in the belly and block the digestive system. Rabbits can't vomit, and they're very delicate, so any kind of digestive problem is very serious. Unlike many other animals, a rabbit can go from perfectly healthy to deathly ill within just a day. Many rabbits die too young from GI stasis because they ate something bad!

If you have a bunny, you should be very careful about where you let it live and play. You need to "bunny-proof," which means you've taken away or blocked-off anything that could be dangerous for the bunny.
