Question
What foods are harmful to rabbits? Is there any fruits or weeds that are harmful? Thanks for your time.

Answer
Dear Hayley,

A complete list of foods and substances that are potentially harmful to rabbits would take many, many pages.  In general, if it's not poisonous to you, it's safe for your bunny.  But rabbits should not eat starchy or sweet items in anything but tiny, treat amounts, as these can make the bunny ill.

Hope this helps.
