Baby rabbit eating grass
-
Although it is often recommended that young rabbits should not eat any leafy green foods until they are 6 months old, the advice doesn't make sense. It may apply to rabbits kept in crowded conditions with a low fibre diet and many environmental pathogens but for rabbits with access to leafy green plants, it does not apply. Wild rabbits start to eat grass and other plants as soon as they emerge from the nest.

Mild epiphora
-
This rabbit has mild epiphora.There was no conjunctivitis and no pus could be expressed from the lacrimal sac by applying pressure to the medial canthus of the eye. Tears were overflowing down the face because the tear duct was blocked by the apex of the large upper incisor that was elongated.

Rabbit in buttercups
-
Buttercups are on many lists of poisonous plants because they can contain an irritant that can cause dermatitis in humans that handle buttercups and salivation, oral ulceration and gastrointestinal irritation in animals that eat them. Rabbits can eat small, young leaves that are growing in pastureland without ill effects. The mature leaves, tall plants and flowers are unpalatable, so they do not eat them. There are no reports of buttercup toxicity in rabbits.
