My bunny ate something

[Misty Girl]

So, I was eating a baked potato and I forgot about it because I was watching a show. Then a hour or two later I had to get something from downstairs and when I came up she was eating the potato. Is the potato dangerous? Help!

From what ive heard it isnt bad but isn't great so make sure ur bun doesnt have a upset stomach or diarrhea and stuff i think she should be okay i'd be more worried about things other than the potato like whatever you stuffed it with

Extra carbs are bad, but particularly if they eat them habitually rather than once. RAW potato can be hazardous for many animals, but baked is less so. Dairy toppings can also be bad for them (sour cream, butter, etc.).

Best advice I can give is to push hay and water (give a bit less pellets to encourage more hay eating for a day or so). Baked potato one time as an accident shouldn't be inherently dangerous.
