Rabbits are herbivores, or specifically a folivores, that survive on a diet of green vegetation.
Rabbits
What is it?
Encephalitozoon cuniculi is a tiny parasite that infects cells in the body. Once a cell is infected, the parasite multiplies, eventually causing the cell to rupture. This releases the parasite to infect new cells.
Feeding
Feeding the correct diet is the most important aspect of rabbit care.
It has become increasingly popular for pet rabbits to be fed commercial ‘muesli’ type foods. Many rabbit experts now recommend avoiding this type of food completely as there is evidence to show that it can lead to selective feeding.
