Itâs true, itâs true! (search for âvomitâ if you dont want to weed through all the other crap).
Maybe they canât vomit, but everything they eat has to go through their digestive system twice, as grass is so hard to break down & get nutrition from.
Iâd rather have a McVitieâs Digestive Biscuit than a Bunnyâs Digestive System.
Not necessarily Martin, from the article linked above:
EATING OF NIGHT FECES:
Rabbits engage in a relatively uncommon but normal behavior when they deliberately eat small, soft, moist (often mucus-covered), light green fecal pellets directly from the anus. These special ânight stoolsâ are especially rich in protein, vitamins and minerals. Rabbits must obtain these nutrients in this fashion. This behavior is most often carried out in the early morning hours and is rarely observed by rabbit owners.
Now thatâs enough to make someone vomit

could this be the special food�

Cows have FOUR stomachs and have to chew their food again after being partially digested (chewing the cud). I am not sure that is grosser than the habits of bunnies âcarried out in the early morning hoursâ though. Now that is just plain
! I mean, get real, who would NEED to vomit if you could stomach (pun intended) doing something like THAT.
In ancient times, many a pet bunny bit the dust due to a little kiddies book called The Adventures of Peter Cottontail. It seems that âPeter Rabbit lives happily in the Green Meadow, eating from Farmer Brownâs carrot and cabbage crops.â
So, itâs no surprise that lots of kids fed their pet rabbits cabbageâwhich causes the production of enough gas to sicken a rabbitâor even kill it. I learned this the hard way (and so did my late rabbit).
Itâs interesting that there are lots of Web sites that recommend cabbage and other vegetables that are bad for rabbits. For example, http://www.debmark.com/rabbits/basics.htm says:
Never feed your rabbits lettuce or cole family vegetables such as cabbage, kale, kohlrabi, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, or broccoli. They can get enteritis and possibly die.
Nevertheless, you can find lots of Web sites recommending all of those vegetables.

Iâm amazed no one commented on my subtle pun, though.

I did a google of my name, and found I was darn near famouse.
Most hits are from forums Iâve invaded over time.
And my appologies for not naming myself DoodyEatingBunnyAtOneOâclockInTheMorning.
