Rabbits have an unusual calcium metabolism. In cats and dogs, calcium absorption is regulated at the gut level and adapted to the requirements of the body. An excess of calcium in the diet is excreted in the feces. This is different in rabbits and calcium absorption is less well regulated. It appears to be proportional to dietary calcium, regardless of the body's requirements. Excess calcium is therefore excreted through the urinary tract, often leading to urine with a high degree of calcium precipitation. In animals that are sensitive to it, this can lead to pain and illness. Vetcare Urinary Health Rabbit Food provides a nutritionally complete and balanced daily diet for rabbits of all breeds and ages (from 20 weeks). It is suitable as a long-term food for rabbits that are prone to urinary tract disorders.

A generous combination of cranberries and blueberries provides antioxidants that contribute to urinary tract health. Dandelion and nettle together have a mild diuretic effect and contribute to the proper functioning of the kidneys. Echinacea and extra vitamin C (500 mg/kg) support the immune system and fight infections.
The fibrous nature and physical properties of this diet will encourage regular water intake to support a healthy urinary tract. It also uniquely extends eating time, resulting in additional tooth wear and less boredom for the rabbit.
