Is it bad if rabbits eat cardboard?

Rodents like rabbits, guinea pigs and gerbils have teeth that grow over their lives. They like to chew on things to keep the teeth sharp or simply from getting too long.

They seem to be eating it like food.

Shredding the cellulose in the cardboard adds to their padding. However, they should have other padding and chewables.

Cardboard is readily available.

Hay is not expensive. Adding grass they can eat and twigs they can chew on should be as simple as picking it up from around the yard.

Can rabbits actually eat paper, as opposed to chewing on it and spitting it out like used gum?

If they ingest a little, it won't hurt. A lot can irritate their stomachs, block the digestive tract and fill them up so they don't eat nutritious food.

What else can I give the rabbit? He likes to tear stuff up and the chewable things at the store are expensive.

So put a pine cone in there. Just don't use one sprayed with artificial evergreen coloring and scents.

Or do that to recycle the painted and glittered ones from Christmas.

I know that would be tempting as a way to get rid of it, but don't.

I thought cardboard and paper were safe for rabbits.

Bleached paper like what you use for printing paper is bad, as is cardboard that has inks and colors on it.

Is the cardboard from a box OK?

Much of that has too much ink or chemical treatments on it. The untreated cardboard like what is inside the paper towel roll and toilet paper roll is OK.

Now my kids have a reason to change out the rolls.

Assuming they don't leave a pile of paper towels in the trash to give the rabbits the roll.

It cannot be worse than the rabbits getting the cardboard toy boxes to chew up because the kids think it looks funny.
