Great digestive supplement

Papaya is so good for a rabbit's digestion. These supplements are hard to find, but my boy LOVES them as a treat.

My guinea pigs did not like these. They have an odd odor, like aging pineapple, which isn’t bad/pungent but which does seem to make them uninterested in eating it

My guinea pigs did not like these. They have an odd odor, like aging pineapple, which isn’t bad/pungent but which does seem to make them uninterested in eating it. They’ll test-bite and then drop it. Sad because the treats seem very healthy :(

Necessary!

Luna is a giant angora rabbit. Wool block is a concern and papaya is said to help. Luna eats this just dropped in to her regular feed.

Helps with stasis

I have a mini rex that frequently goes into stasis. She's bonded to an angora, so she ingests a lot of hair. Since starting these daily, she hasn't had any issues

I have a mini rex that frequently goes into stasis. She's bonded to an angora, so she ingests a lot of hair. Since starting these daily, she hasn't had any issues and seems more lively than ever. It also helps when you can't groom them everyday. I highly recommend!

Less added sugar than dried papaya or pineapple

My buns kept getting stasis and I couldn’t figure out why. Their environment is well controlled. My vet mentioned it could be excess hair since they can’t throw

My buns kept getting stasis and I couldn’t figure out why. Their environment is well controlled. My vet mentioned it could be excess hair since they can’t throw it up. I have added half a tab to my 3 pound rabbit every other day and 1tab a day to my 8 pound rabbits and it appears to be helping (and much less loose stools than with dried fruit)
