What if a cat eats cat litter?
A cat eating litter may be drawn by a strong scent; switch to unscented bentonite. Keep the litter box away from the food bowl so they are not confused. Put some feces and urine in the box and do not scoop too cleanly so the cat learns its purpose. Eating too much can cause blockages; if vomiting or appetite loss, see a vet.
Do rabbits eat meat?
Rabbits do not eat meat; they are herbivores and should eat mainly hay. Meat causes indigestion, vomiting, and diarrhea. Feed timothy, oat, or alfalfa hay (wash and dry wild greens). Also offer small amounts of celery, carrot, apple, banana, dandelion, or cabbage, clean and not too watery.
