I have a little bunny and her name is Chelsea. I don't know too much about rabbits myself either. However, from talking to a vet, Yogurt based treat should not be given to bunnies. The vet said something about how yogurt needs some kinda bacteria to make them from milk to become yogurt and these bacterias don't react too well in the tummy of a bunny, unlike in human's bunny. My rabbit used to love Yogurt dip treats too, but i decided to stop. there are other lots of other healtier snacks to give them. Also, lots of hays!! as they can't puke out their hair like cats, so they need to have hays to get the hair (from liking their own fur) out of their system. Oh yeah, don't use wood shaving for their litter as shavings produce some kind of fumes that can cause some kind of liver problems. I use shreded papers instead. That's all i know so far! Have lots and lots fun with Starbucks. Don't forget to hug and kiss him everyday!! I am attaching a pic of my precious Chelsea.

I would check with the House Rabbit Society first and follow closely their recommendations. Enjoy your sweet and entertaining little friend!

Get yourself a good book on raising rabbits. There is lots of "people food" that they can have but a number of things that they also shouldn't have. They love to chew. Shrubs branches that they can chew on should be listed in the book. We had a rabbit loose in the house but he had buck teeth, which meant that he was the perfect indoor rabbit...he couldn't chew on any furniture! There are so many hints on raising rabbits...find a breeder in the area and go for a visit. There are rabbit shows in most towns/cities. Enter him in a show. You will learn lots. Report Spam or Abuse
