Rabbits will chew on various objects to keep their gnawing teeth short. If the teeth are long, the rabbit will have difficulty eating food and this will lead to serious health problems. If your pet rabbit has long teeth, bring it to the vet to get it clipped.

Rabbits or bunnies chew things to either grind their teeth or to get your attention when they make noise if you have one for a pet.

Can pet rabbits eat bottle brush branches?

Rabbits should not eat any materials that are not natural. They may nibble on many things because they are curious, but the only safe chew toys for rabbits, and other small pets, are untreated wood (preferably NOT from outside unless you know about wood toxicity and pesticides), hay, clean cardboard boxes (no glue or labels) and commercial pet chew toys. Rabbits and other small pets are not actually eating these toys. They are chewing on them to keep their teeth healthy. Small mammals that are kept as pets, especially rodents, have teeth that grow all the time (rabbits do too, but they are not rodents). These animals need appropriate things to chew on to keep their teeth from getting too long. Without proper chew toys, their teeth can grow so long that they cannot eat properly.


Can rabbits eat turnip?

Yes, rabbits can eat turnip in moderation. Turnips are safe for rabbits to consume as part of a varied diet, but they should not be a primary source of food due to their high water content and potential for causing digestive issues if consumed in large quantities. Introduce turnips slowly to ensure your rabbit tolerates them well.
