Hi,
My 14 month old rabbit, BunBun, ate a lot of cardboard last night and I'm thinking it might be too much. It was an Amazon box that I was using for a digging box. (It was filled with wood shavings). He ate about (ABOUT!!!) 7 square inches maybe? Will he be ok? I read that I should only give him hay and water....no pellets for a couple days.
Is this true? I've only had him for about 4 days so I don't want to loose him. I've heard that eating too much cardboard can cause......well, I don't remember.....but it was something that can be fatal. I really love this rabbit and don't want to loose him! Could someone please help me out?
Also, I called a vet nearby and they said they couldn't really help me unless I brought him in and I can't right now. (personal reasons). Please help! From now on I will give him a wooden box.
Thanks for any help!

P.S. - Thanks for reading my long post and FYI (or, JSYN - just so you know) I will post a picture of what he ate later...
