Poisonings and Other Hazards

                 ----------------------------



Pet rabbits are often allowed the run of the house.  However,

rabbits love to chew and often get into trouble by chewing on

electrical cords, poisonous house plants, floor mats and rugs.

Electrocution, serious burns, poisoning and intestinal

impaction are the most frequent consequences of such chewing.



Rabbits should be confined when their owners are away from the

house and must be closely supervised when their owners are at

home so that these accidents are avoided.
