Adult Rabbit Food Alfalfa Timothy Hay-Based Blend 10 lbs, Grain and Soy-Free

Thousands of pet parents have witnessed their furry friends transform into vibrant, healthy, and happy members of their families by joining the Sherwood Pet Health community. The key to maintaining your rabbit's digestive health and well-being lies in encouraging them to eat more hay and drink more water, while reducing their intake of other food items.

Tip 1: Encourage your pet rabbit to eat more hay and drink more water by feeding less salads, greens, veggies, and fruits, as well as less grain and soy found in most pellets and treats. These food items are sweeter than hay and can increase digestive health problems. When your rabbit eats more dry hay, they will drink more water, leading to better urinary health.

Tip 2: Be vigilant for the warning signs of digestive upset (risk of stasis). Digestive health, G.I. tract motility, energy, and appetite are all closely related. If one declines, the others will decline too. Watch out for malformed poops, un-eaten cecotropes, low energy or less activity than normal, and a low appetite (won't eat favorite treat).

Tip 3: Feeding greens will increase signs of digestive upset. This has been tested and proven. Feeding even a small amount of greens to a 6-pound rabbit caused these signs of digestive upset to appear within a few days, and it took over a week of not feeding any greens to fix it.

Tip 4: If hay is the first ingredient, is the formula mostly hay? No! Excess grain and soy are not a natural part of your rabbit's diet and will increase the signs of digestive upset. Grain and soy, in multiple forms, are often hidden in pellets that have hay as the first ingredient, but these pellets are usually less than 35% hay.

Tip 5: Feed real hay and no substitutes! Sherwood's formulas contain real hay and don't use low-cost ingredients, like soybean hulls or oat hulls, as an alternative to using real hay. Their hay-based formulas are grain-free and soy-free, and they are science-based, formulated by a Ph.D. Molecular Biologist.

Nourish your pet's best life with the Sherwood Pet Health diet plan, and you'll see your furry friend transform into a healthier and happier companion.
