What is a rabbits favourite things to eat?

Answer 1

There are many plants that are safe and good for rabbits to eat, and many plants that aren't. No list of rabbit-safe plants is complete, so rabbit owners should become accustomed to researching specific plants before they give them to their rabbits.

The most important plant for pet rabbits is grass hay (like timothy). This should be the biggest part of your bunny's diet.

Other than hay, most of the plants you give your pet bunny should be fresh, dark, leafy green vegetables. Non-leafy plants (vegetables, fruit) are fine as a treat, but too much will make your bunny sick. Rabbits can also eat flowers and twigs. See the related questions below for more info and links about a healthy rabbit diet.

There are many plants (or parts of plants) that are poisonous for rabbits! Always search each online for confirmation that it's rabbit-safe before giving any plant to your bunny. If you aren't sure about something, better safe than sorry: avoid it! See the related link below for a list of dangerous plants.

When you're introducing a new plant to your bunny, be very careful. Stick to one new plant at a time so if your bunny gets sick, you know what caused it. Start with only a few bites one day, and watch for signs of illness. Be prepared to bring your bunny to the vet if she gets sick! If she doesn't, then the next day you can try a few more bites, and so on. See the related questions below for info about rabbit sickness and vets.
