Are rabbits herbivores, or do rabbits eat meat? - Brook-Falls Veterinary Hospital

They're herbivores, so we don't want to feed any meat to our rabbits.

What fruits can my rabbits eat? - Brook-Falls Veterinary Hospital

As long as it's very small amounts, maybe once a week as a little treat, they could have little pieces of banana or apple. We really want to keep the fruits to a minimum.

What vegetables can rabbits eat? - Brook-Falls Veterinary Hospital

Lots of vegetables, like leafy greens, are really good. You can do small amounts of higher-sugar ones, like tomatoes, carrots, and cucumbers, but leafy greens, cilantro, romaine, and red and green leaf lettuce are all good ones.

How do I give my pet rabbit water? - Brook-Falls Veterinary Hospital

We recommend having both a water bowl and a hanging bottle so they can pick which one they prefer at different times. In case your water bottle plugs up, you've got the bowl there. That way, they have an option and can do either/or, and they can continue getting that water in. That's important for digestion.

What do baby bunnies eat? - Brook-Falls Veterinary Hospital

Initially, they're going to drink some milk from their mothers, and then once they transition onto the hay, we want them to have just a little bit more calcium in their hay, so they can eat some alfalfa hay as opposed to adults, which eat more grass-based hay.
