The Duchess
Wise Old Thumper
Just received one of the RWA first alert notices and wanted to share it with you all..
"A member has contacted us about a tragic incident where several
rabbits died after eating avocado. The member wished us to pass this
on as a warning to other rabbit owners that it is extremely toxic to
rabbits, and also to dogs, cats, horses and goats.
You may already be aware of what you can and cannot feed your rabbit,
but the vet dealing with the case was unaware of the toxicity of
avocado to certain animals, and so there's a chance that many owners
will not know either."
