It just takes time and effort, and with this book you will have the steps to achieve that relationship.

Rabbits are vegetarians. Like all vegetarians they are fussy. As you will see below there is more to feeding a rabbit than to feeding a cat or a dog.

A rabbit's most important daily staples are hay, pellets, fresh grass or clover and fresh water. Rabbits should always have fresh hay because it's the main part of their diet. Timothy hay, not alfalfa, is the safest and best. It can be found in pet food stores, such as Korna Natural Pet Foods, in small bags or you can get it from a farm in bales (Timothy hay is just dried Timothy grass.) Give your rabbit as much hay as it wants. Timothy pellets are made from Timothy hay which is broken down into pellets with important nutrients added to keep your rabbit healthy. When you shop for rabbit pellets, make sure that they have a maximum of 14 percent protein and that they are pure pellets, no dried fruits or seed additives.
