In the wild, rabbits spend around 70% of their time eating grass and other plants.
Rabbits are intelligent and curious animals that need mental stimulation to prevent
boredom and stress.
Eating hay provides an enriching activity that mimics their natural foraging behaviour in
the wild, and as a result keeps them hoppy and happy!
‘Dietary enrichment’ is an item, toy or forage that will provide mental stimulation by
encouraging your rabbit’s natural foraging behaviour.
Ideas for enrichment for rabbits include:
1) Hiding places and platforms in their hutch.
2) Toys and objects to manipulate, investigate, encourage play and allow digging
and scent marking.
3) Dietary enrichment — provide food in a way that encourages your rabbits to
forage for or work for their food.

your rabbits to play and forage? Order a box today here.
