Salt and mineral blocks
Fresh water supply
Fresh fruits
Dark leafy vegetables & Carrots
Papaya tablets to help break down food and prevent hairballs
Rabbits like to chew on things. Provide a wooden block or chew toys specifically designed for rabbits.
Do not feed too many treats
Do not feed rabbits meat. Most rabbits will not eat meat of any kind.
