Louie pretends he is a snow plough pushing the snow around and then spends ages eating it
you do know that rabbits eating snow is a really bad thing as it lowers the body temp and cant cause the body to shut down just like in humans that why if your caught in snow sranded you should never never eat the snow if you thirsty
drinking near frozen water they cant drink it as it frozen sorry only way round this is to keep changing the water put old socks over the bottles helps a bit and dont give cold water give slightly off cold water it doesnt freeze as quick ann x
I too have heard the warning about eating snow and lowering body temperature. I can't find it unfortunately, but I also once read something a vet wrote about treating cases of GI stasis resulting from snow eating (as jazzywoo wrote, body shut down, etc).
Not just that, but I've also heard snow is full of toxins -- all the **** in our environment ends up concentrated in the snow, or something. No one should be eating it!
