Pet rabbits have specific dietary requirements to ensure they stay healthy and happy. They should have access to unlimited fresh hay, such as timothy hay, as the main part of their diet. Along with hay, they should also be given a daily serving of fresh vegetables like leafy greens (e.g. romaine lettuce, kale) and a small amount of pellets specifically formulated for rabbits. Fresh water should always be available, and treats should be given in moderation to prevent weight gain and digestive issues. It's important to avoid feeding rabbits foods high in sugar and carbohydrates, as well as foods that are toxic to them, such as chocolate and avocado.
