My bunny tends to suffer bouts of GI stasis every 3-4 months. The papaya and digestive support treats were recommended to see if they would help prevent/reduce these instances. I started them in September, so we'll see what happens.

I love these and so do my rabbits! I have 3 and they each get a treat every night. Every once in awhile one of them would have weird colored/shaped stool, and these have improved their digestive tract very well.

I’ve got four chinchillas who absolutely love these!! Easiest way to keep them out of my hair for a minute or two while I clean their cage every day, while making them think they’re getting a treat!

We purchased these vitamins as a healthy treat for our bunny, and he loves them! We usually give him 1 per day, which he gets excited about every time. They have a stronger smell than some other treats we give to him so they are also great for hiding in his enclosure or toys for him to find with his little sniffer!

My 4-year old buck goes crazy for these, he runs around me whenever I shake the bag. He is 6.4 pounds so I give him two a day. Came really fast in the mail.

I've been using these for years with rabbits. My current rabbit loves them and thinks they are a treat. I do prefer the old packaging of the plastic container with a screw-on lid but it is not a bit deal.

My bunny had one episode of gas, which really scared me. After that, I started giving her this supplement to keep her GI working well. She really likes the flavor and comes running -she is a free roaming bunny- when she hears me shaking the bag :o)
