Oxbow's Flagship Line

Oxbow's Essentials line is the diet that set the bar for today's small pet nutrition. There's a unique food for a variety of small animals—chinchillas, guinea pigs, rabbits, mice, rats, hamsters and gerbils. These uniform pellets provide the right nutrients for each species with no artificial preservatives, colors or flavors.

Treats for Enrichment

In addition to their foods, Oxbow's healthy treats are rewarding for small animals and their owners. Simple Rewards are made with wholesome, natural ingredients like freeze-dried fruits and veggies, Timothy hay, and aromatic herbs. They're great for training, bonding or simply adding a little variety.

The Gold Standard of Small Pet Nutrition

An ideal small animal diet includes 20% fortified foods for herbivores and 75% for omnivores for essential vitamins and micronutrients. Oxbow's three fortified food lines are recommended by veterinarians worldwide because they're specially formulated to meet the unique needs of small animals—a true gold standard of nutrition.

Senior bunnies

I was glad to find a senior formula food for my two senior rabbits who will turn 10 years old soon. I hope this food will be beneficial to their longevity.

I switched my bunny over to these pellets once he was in the senior age group and he's done wonderfully on these. Considering the need for them to be able to get at their cecotropes and the lack of flexibility that can happen with age, these pellets have been great because not only does he like them, they also keep him fit and not overweight which helps him maintain his digestive process.

Great food for buns considered senior in years.

We have consistently fed our bunnies Oxbow pellets since they were adopted in 2019-2020. Now that they are older we have been feeding them the senior pellets since

We have consistently fed our bunnies Oxbow pellets since they were adopted in 2019-2020. Now that they are older we have been feeding them the senior pellets since they are 6 and 7 years old. They have maintained a very well balanced diet with the Pellets, unlimited Timothy hay, greens and occasional treats. We have been very satisfied with the quality of products due to the fact that we have rarely had a bout of GI stasis or digestion issues. Consistency is the key.

Huge difference

I switched my 10yo rabbit from adult to this senior pellet and immediately noticed a difference in energy level, as well as an easier time keeping weight on him

I switched my 10yo rabbit from adult to this senior pellet and immediately noticed a difference in energy level, as well as an easier time keeping weight on him. The only downside is I don’t love the ingredients.
