Easter is just around the corner and we can’t think of a better way to celebrate but to talk about RABBITS! Sure they are the first pets we can think of when it comes to the holiday, but did you know that their diets can be very specific and involve more than just carrots?
The recommended rabbit’s diet is high in fiber and relatively low in calories.
A good mix of pellets, hay, vegetables, as well as freshwater will make your rabbit’s diet delicious, nutritive and will give a healthy life for your bunny. The recommended rabbit’s diet is high in fiber and relatively low in calories. Our pet experts put together a guide for a rabbit’s diet to help pet parents keep these fluffy ones healthy and strong!
Pellets
The maintenance amount that is recommended is no more than 1/8 cup per 4 lbs. of body weight of a high fiber maintenance type pellet (18% or higher fiber) per day. In young growing animals the pellets may be given free choice until they are about 6-8 months of age.
Hay
Hay needs to be fresh and available at all times. Mixed grass hay or timothy hay is the preferred type because it is lower in calcium and calories than alfalfa hay. It is also important to store hay in a dry place in a container that allows airflow to keep it from getting moldy.
Vegetables
It is interesting to feed a minimum of 3 different types of fibrous greens daily. The minimum amount recommended per day is 1 heaping cup/4 lbs. body weight. Some of the good greens are:
- Kale
- Collards
- Beet tops
- Carrot tops
- Parsley
- Dandelion greens
- Mustard greens
- Romaine lettuce
- Broccoli leaves
- Brussels sprouts
- Outer cabbage leaves
- Raspberry leaves
- Peppermint leaves
- Escarole
- Endive
- Wheatgrass
- Alfalfa sprouts
Other vegetables such as pea pods (not the peas), green pepper and squash, can also be fed.
Fruits
Fruits can also be fed with some restrictions. Prefer high fiber fruits such as apples, pears, peaches, papaya, pineapple, and strawberries, but stay away from sugary fruits such as bananas and grapes.
Water
Freshwater must always be available to your rabbit, and on hot days, you can drop an ice cube or two in your rabbit’s water dish.
Cecotropes
Cecotropes is a kind of rabbit poop produced by the cecum that contains around 28-30% crude protein, up to 30% of the nitrogen, some fatty acids, microorganism protein, B vitamins, sodium, water, lysine, threonine, potassium, and suffer amino acids. It is not commonly seen because the rabbits eat it directly from their anus. However, if the rabbit has health or dietary issues the owner can see it.
It is very important to pay attention to the cecotropes of your rabbits, as it is an important part of their diet. Cecotropes helps with the nutrition of the rabbits, it is an additional source of energy, B vitamins, and aid in the replenishment of cecal microflora.
Natural Support
In addition to the diet we suggested above, your furkiddo can take Turmeric as proactive care. You can mix it with their food, twice daily. The active compound in turmeric is curcumin. Studies have shown turmeric to be an excellent anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antifungal, antibacterial, anticoagulant, antiseptic, astringent, helps with liver function, bile production, and externally for wound healing. The healing properties of curcumin may also be beneficial for rabbits with autoimmune diseases, liver disorders, heart, and circulatory support.
NHV Turmeric is also beneficial for arthritic conditions in rabbits due to its anti-inflammatory properties and is COX2 inhibitor. The use of turmeric extracts in a rabbit’s daily diet may help scavenge free radicals, increase antioxidant enzymes, and inhibit lipid peroxidation.

What are Antioxidants?
Antioxidants are molecules that combat free radicals in the body and help keep them in check. Free radicals are required for the body to fight infections effectively, but if levels get too high, degenerative conditions like cancer, heart disease, and diabetes are likely to develop. Antioxidants are commonly found in fruits, veggies, and plants. Vitamins E and C are well-known antioxidants.
Rabbit Supplements with Antioxidant Support
We all want our pets to live long and healthy lives. Sadly, our little ones will likely get sick during their lifetime. Anytime your furkiddo is battling an illness, their immune system becomes weakened, leading to a buildup of toxins in the body. This buildup of toxins may exhaust the liver and kidneys and leave your furkiddo’s body vulnerable to secondary infections or more severe health conditions like cancer. To help support the affected areas of your pet’s body, natural supplements like NHV Turmeric are beneficial for keeping free radicals in check and helping boost liver function.
Why Can’t I Give My Pet Turmeric From The Kitchen?
Turmeric on its own is not bioavailable for pets. It needs to be combined with specific herbs to bring out any health benefits. This list often includes black pepper, but due to both spices' strong odor and flavor, if you were to add them to your pet’s meal directly, they would likely avoid their food bowl. What makes NHV Turmeric unique is that it has been formulated specifically for pets by a holistic vet and master herbalist with over 50 years of experience. Our gentle formulation means you can safely increase the dosage when your pet needs extra support.

Holistic Rabbit Kidney Supplement Support
Sometimes it can be tricky to tell what is bothering your furry companion, because no two pets are alike! But a common health issue that affects our bunny pals is kidney disease. These two bean-shaped organs have several key roles: removing metabolic wastes from the body and maintaining the correct balance of water and electrolytes (salts) within the body. Another important role is producing essential hormones that help maintain healthy blood pressure, production of new blood cells, and allow the body to absorb salt. Lastly, the urinary system processes vitamin D - an integral component for calcium absorption and bone growth.
The two most common types of renal issues are kidney degeneration (often age-related) which can lead to organ failure and acute kidney failure, where symptoms develop suddenly over a few days or weeks and can lead to the kidneys shutting down quickly. This may cause irregularities in your bunny’s urinary output. To figure out if your furkiddo has kidney issues, your vet can run some tests like bloodwork, urinalysis, radiographs, ultrasounds, and/or CT scans, to further investigate their symptoms. The typical course of action for rabbit kidney problems includes intravenous fluid therapy (under the supervision of your trusted vet), the addition of glycoproteins and a kidney-specific, balanced diet.
Symptoms of Rabbit Kidney Problems
- Lethargy
- Lack of appetite
- Inappropriate urination
- Change in frequency of urination
- Straining to urinate
- Abnormal urine color
- Fever
- Soft stools, diarrhea, or constipation
- Possible seizures
- Tender kidneys (abdominal pain)
For kidney degeneration or acute kidney issues, we'd suggest adding a natural rabbit kidney supplement like NHV Tripsy™ to your bunny's daily feeding schedule. It can safely be used short-term as well as long-term as a natural health support. Tripsy™ promotes healthy kidney, bladder, and urinary tract functions and may eliminate kidney stone formation in all of your bunny pals (both young and old).
How NHV’s Supplements Ease Rabbit Kidney Problems
Kidney issues can cause a lot of stress and worry in your Lop and Lionhead pals. Ingredients like parsley piert and stone root have diuretic properties that gently regulate urine flow, if on the low/infrequent side, to help keep things flowing normally and prevent the formation of kidney and bladder calculi (often called stones). Herbs like Wild hydrangea and Gravel root have traditionally been used for supporting kidney and urinary health by helping to break down, dissolve and remove stones and prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs). Other ingredients like Echinacea purpurea and Oregon grape's defense against microorganisms help combat infections. And lastly, Marshmallow soothes irritated internal tissues and protects cells from oxidative damage.
Causes for Kidney Issues in Rabbits
- Shock
- Trauma
- Stress
- Stroke
- Heart failure

What are Antioxidants?
Antioxidants are molecules that combat free radicals in the body and help keep them in check. Free radicals are required for the body to fight infections effectively, but if levels get too high, degenerative conditions like cancer, heart disease, and diabetes are likely to develop. Antioxidants are commonly found in fruits, veggies, and plants. Vitamins E and C are well-known antioxidants.
Rabbit Supplements with Antioxidant Support
We all want our pets to live long and healthy lives. Sadly, our little ones will likely get sick during their lifetime. Anytime your furkiddo is battling an illness, their immune system becomes weakened, leading to a buildup of toxins in the body. This buildup of toxins may exhaust the liver and kidneys and leave your furkiddo’s body vulnerable to secondary infections or more severe health conditions like cancer. To help support the affected areas of your pet’s body, natural supplements like NHV Turmeric are beneficial for keeping free radicals in check and helping boost liver function.
Why Can’t I Give My Pet Turmeric From The Kitchen?
Turmeric on its own is not bioavailable for pets. It needs to be combined with specific herbs to bring out any health benefits. This list often includes black pepper, but due to both spices' strong odor and flavor, if you were to add them to your pet’s meal directly, they would likely avoid their food bowl. What makes NHV Turmeric unique is that it has been formulated specifically for pets by a holistic vet and master herbalist with over 50 years of experience. Our gentle formulation means you can safely increase the dosage when your pet needs extra support.
How NHV Turmeric for Rabbits Supports Health and Vitality
Getting a diagnosis for a tumor or serious infection may be scary. However, with the proper care plan, your bunny can still maintain a long and healthy life! NHV's Turmeric contains the active compound Curcumin which has been used for centuries to help improve liver detoxification and add extra antioxidant support to scavenge for free radicals, help relieve inflammation and enhance healing. Often bundled with Milk Thistle because of its antioxidant properties, our formulation of Turmeric also contains black pepper, which helps improve digestion by increasing bile flow and may even help decrease harmful cholesterol levels.

My rabbit has infection in her right eye and she is turning blind. How can she get rid of the infection. It was a small white dot and now that white has covered her entire eye. Pls suggest.
Hi Meenal,
Thank you so much for reaching out to us! We can’t imagine how stressful this must be for you, so thank you for looking out for your little one when she needs you most.
We have a few suggestions that we think could help your sweet girl:
First, we’d recommend Ey-Eas. This is our main eye support that we only suggest using if your little one doesn’t have any ulcers or tears in her eye. Ey-Eas can help to naturally manage swelling, restore eyes back to their natural state, and can help prevent spreading eye infections to other kitties. You can click here to learn more about Ey-Eas: https://www.nhvnaturalpetproducts.com/ey-eas-for-eye-infections-in-cats
Next, we’d suggest Turmeric. This powerful yet gentle supplement can help to reduce inflammation and discomfort. Here’s more on Turmeric: https://www.nhvnaturalpetproducts.com/turmeric-for-rabbits/
Please feel free to reach out to us any time you need us, our team is always here if you ever need anything.
Wishing you and your bun all the best!
Yours in wellness,
Team NHV
Hi Lily,
We can’t imagine how uncomfortable your little one must be. Thank you so much for looking out for your sweet boy, especially when he needs you most.
We spoke with our vet team for you and they have a few suggestions that they think could help keep your bunny as comfortable as possible.
First, we’d recommend Tripsy as this is our main kidney and URI support. The unique blend of herbs found in Tripsy can help to maintain kidney health and urinary tract health, soothe discomfort, all while helping to reduce inflammation.
Here’s more information on Tripsy for you: https://www.nhvnaturalpetproducts.com/tripsy-for-rabbits/
Second, we would suggest our Turmeric supplement to help get the uncomfortable inflammation down. Turmeric can also help to support kidney health while supporting other important organs like the heart.
Here’s more on Turmeric for you: https://www.nhvnaturalpetproducts.com/turmeric-for-rabbits/
Next, we’d recommend Stimmune to help with supporting your little one’s immune system. Stimmune can help to reduce uncomfortable symptoms like itchiness and inflamed skin while helping to fight off infection.
Click here for more on Stimmune: https://www.nhvnaturalpetproducts.com/stimmune-for-cat-allergy-relief-feline-immune-support
Lastly, because your little guy is on antibiotics, which can be tough on a pet’s body (especially the liver) we would suggest our Milk Thistle supplement. This powerful supplement can help to support liver health, and liver regeneration while also helping to detoxify the liver and kidneys.
Here’s more on Milk Thistle: https://www.nhvnaturalpetproducts.com/milk-thistle-for-rabbits/
Because your little one has had nystagmus, we would strongly suggest speaking with your veterinarian before taking him off of antibiotics.
We know that this is a lot of information to take in, so please take your time in reviewing everything. Feel free to pass this info along to your vet as well and don’t forget we’re always here if you have any questions at all!
Sending you and your little one lots of love and good vibes!
Yours in wellness,
Team NHV
When a matured female rabbit could not conceive after several breeding what could be the cause and the cure.
Hi Tahyor,
We are so sorry to hear about your little one’s condition. There are many reasons for a rabbit to not get conceived, such as old age, underlying diseases, stress, injuries, or lack of nutrition. We suggest bringing your rabbit to an exotic veterinarian to find out the cause. Once diagnosed, we can help guide you through our supplements that may further help support your little one’s quality of life.
We hope all the best for your rabbit. Please do let us know if you have any questions.
Yours in wellness,
Team NHV
Can my 4 lb rabbit eat turmeric root that I grow in my garden? If so, how much should I give her?
Hi Shirley,
Thanks so much for reaching out to us!
That’s a great question! While turmeric can be very beneficial to our furkiddos, it’s vital that they’re given turmeric, and other herbs, in pet-formulated dosages. Just like the saying says, “too much of a good thing, isn’t always a good thing.” So we would not recommend giving your rabbit turmeric root from your garden.
Good news, though! We have vet-formulated and pet-safe Turmeric! This powerful yet gentle supplement can help to reduce inflammation, support muscles and joints, and can help to support vital organs like the heart and liver.
More information on Turmeric here: https://www.nhvnaturalpetproducts.com/turmeric-for-rabbits/
We also thought you might like to check out our blog on Turmeric and why it can be so beneficial for our little ones! https://nhvpethealth.com/blog/vet-talks-superherb-turmeric-and-its-uses-for-pet-health/
Sending lots and lots of love to you and your little bunny!
Please feel free to reach out to us at any time.
