The sad thing is if Americans saw a supermarket shelf of only carrots or Cheetos, its clone in color and size only, they would stuff their carts with bags of Cheetos instead of a rabbit's favorite snack. I love carrots but processed foods are America's comfort cooking
Just a PSA about this common myth - rabbits DO NOT naturally eat carrots.
Bugs Bunny popularized the idea, yet the only reason he ate carrots was as a reference/homage to Clark Gable in the 1934 film It Happened One Night.
Apparently a lot about Bugs Bunny was a reference to that character, including the phrase, "What's up, Doc?"
Anyway, I've seen pet-owners give their rabbits carrots as if it's a normal meal. It is not, and the high sugar in carrots can cause health issues. For the sake of your bunny, please get dietary advice from your pet's veterinarian - not from a cartoon that parodied a film character 85 years ago.
The next thing you'll be telling us is that we can't arbitrarily drop anvils on people.
I'd prefer a piano. I wanna be like Eddy Valiant's brother.
