Thanks.

Around my area, I can purchase dandelion leaves in the grocery store. Perhaps you could check specialty food shops when they come into season if there aren't any growing naturally near you?

When we were kids there was an old man who lived next door to us who never tended to his garden - the dandelions there were rampant (up to our knees). Every now and again we would go round and pick handfuls of dandelions for our rabbits. It kept our rabbits very happy and the guy next door was just pleased someone had weeded his garden. I don't remember them making our rabbits wee more, but then my Dad probably got the pleasure of cleaning them out afterwards.

Binky does that a lot too. Eveeytime he comes up to me, I always thinks he wants to be cuddled but it turns out he just wants to wee. He treats me like a toilet.
