Welcome to Raising Rabbits!

News Flash! What your rabbit needs to know about Pumpkin Spice

It's that time of year again, Pumpkin Spice everything!!! As the leaves fall, you think about snuggling in your favorite comfy sweater with your rabbit, enjoying lovely pumpkin spice. But before you share your favorite autumn indulgence, you need to know what is best for bunny. The 5 core ingredients to pumpkin spice are pumpkin, cinnamon, clove, ginger, and nutmeg. Pumpkin is a good treat, in moderation. Cinnamon and Ginger in small amounts are also just fine. However, nutmeg and cloves are toxic to rabbits. Clove is the active ingredient in over the counter tooth pain medicine, so you know it's strong stuff. Keep bunny away from Pumpkin Spice treats with clove and nutmeg, even if he really wants them.

Pumpkin Spice Bunny Branola has been specially formulated for your rabbits' enjoyment and good health. It's made in small batches with natural ingredients. We have it in several sizes, and WITHOUT nutmeg or cloves. Find out more HERE.

The Rabbit Care Section serves ALL who have rabbits. Most of the time, fortunately, raising rabbits involves similar basic rabbit care, no matter what purpose your rabbits serve - whether pet, fiber (wool), show, or livestock (meat and fur). 

• Pet Rabbits: Pet rabbits can be a perfect solution for animal-loving but busy urban dwellers. They sleep while you're at work or school, and are active during your breakfast, suppertime, and early evening.
  
  
• Livestock Rabbits and Show Rabbits. Livestock rabbit farming, especially if a commercial enterprise, requires greater attention to detail. Various breeding, feeding, and lighting practices are optimized to help stabilize general and wintertime production. As always, animal welfare is paramount. Plus, we offer tips on gaining a full or part-time income from your passion and expertise with raising rabbits, both in the USA and abroad.
