Thread: What a good idea

Rabbit is a favorite with our crew as well. I buy carcasses (ribcages with a lot of meat still on them) and use pruning scissors to cut off the ribs. I don’t feed the vertebrae because I noticed the Coonies have difficulty crunching them. (Which is a bit strange really because I’ve heard of cats who happily munch on the vertebrae and even the heads.)

Fur and feathers are supposed to be good for roughage, but sadly our Coonies won’t eat anything that still ‘has its clothes on’ – except for little Minnie who likes day-old chicks. There’s talk that one of the Dutch frozen ground brands will shortly be introducing a new variety that contains fur and feathers, so I am anxiously awaiting that.
