[font="Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"]Fruits:[/font]
[font="Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"]Apple

Melon
Orange (remove the peel)
Papaya
Peach
Pear
Pineapple
Plums
Raspberries
Strawberries
Absolutely NO chocolate (poisonous!), cookies, crackers, breakfastcereals, bread, pasta, yogurt drops, or other "human treats." There isresearch to suggest these items may contribute to fatal cases ofenterotoxemia, a toxic overgrowth of "bad" bacteria in the intestinaltract.[/font]
[font="Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"]My question is what OTHERfruits are okay? What about watermelon? Mango? Etc. They don't havecraisins(sp) on the list, but I have heard plenty of people give themto their rabbits. What about Kiwi?[/font]
