My poor little bun is sick and currently on antibiotics. The vet, who is very holistic, suggested we give her lots of fresh vegetables and unproccessed foods. I currently have a bottle of Bolthouse farms 100% carrot juice and was wondering if I could give her some?
 
Carrots are usually limited because of all the sugar and calcium in it. Juices usually have a lot more sugar then the fruit or vegetable its made of. I would say stick to the other veggies and give her fresh water to drink.
 
I'm so sorry about the illness. Is she not drinking her water & you thought the carrot juice would increase her consumption of liquids? It's basically carrots with the fiber removed & so it'd be better to give carrot sticks instead, or shredded if she's having chewing problems, if the calories aren't a problem right now.

I would recommend increasing the amount of parsley or cilantro that she's eating. Maybe add some sunflower seeds.
