So can rabbits eat dairy products?
Unfortuntely, rabbits are unable to eat any kind of dairy products. This is because they are high in fat and their tummies just cannot take them.
According to medirabbit, it is for the following reasons;
· Lactobacillus/Acidobacillus are not a natural host of the adult rabbit intestinal and, if surviving the passage through the acid stomach, it will not survive the anaerobic conditions of the cecum. The lack of adhesive capability may further prevent Lactobacilli from colonizing in the intestinal tract.
· Adult rabbits naturally do not have the right bacteria to digest milk derivates in the cecum and intestine.
If they do eat dairy, then they will get ill. So it is best to keep them away from any kind of dairy product.
