Literally 2-5 minutes can learn you that bok choy is not only not bad for rabbits, it's a great part of their diet. Also, to always have water available. <br /><br />Besides that, pet stores are among the worst place to get any pet, let alone a smaller animal that could be vulnerable to disease and mistreatment. By the sounds of it, the rabbits given to you were being treated pretty poorly, if the seller gave you such awful advice.<br /><br />Seriously, people: Don't support pet stores. If you want a pet, any pet, do a little research and find reputable breeders in your area.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2732988644864592247.post-3925851616780422742011-06-22T09:54:58.516+08:002011-06-22T09:54:58.516+08:00bok choy is NOT posionous to rabbits and is actual...bok choy is NOT posionous to rabbits and is actually recommended to be one of the many leafy green veggies to feed them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2732988644864592247.post-42061344056810159122010-06-14T09:38:05.755+08:002010-06-14T09:38:05.755+08:00I think bunnies aren't all that hearty - that&...I think bunnies aren't all that hearty - that's why they have so many babies....and it gives us the funny saying of "doing it like bunny rabbits!"

Goodness, you just don't buy pets for someone else's family on a whim.<br /><br />When my sister was little (about 5-6 years old), we found an itty bitty bunny in our backyard. For some reason, the poor thing was abandoned (or so we thought). My sister was so elated. She took him into her room, fed him grass and, of course, plenty of water was provided. And then he died very, very soon! Now your story brought some light as to why he died.Ulyanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15241777042565026574noreply@blogger.com
