Dont know about yellow pages, but our buns rip up the newspaper they have to line the hutches :? Not sure if they eat it, but if they do its never harmed them

Hi, my rabbit used to eat cardboard toilet roll tubes and safe bedding and carpet but she has had 3 stomach blockages because of it.

I'm so sorry this happened to your bun Mel D. Thank you for posting.
Many buns get away with eating paper & cardboard, but if they obstruct on it, it can be very serious.
