Forage isn’t just a treat — for many small pets it’s a natural, enriching part of a healthy diet. In the wild, small animals graze on a wide variety of grasses, leaves, herbs and roots. Offering dried forage at home mimics that natural diet, supports digestion and keeps busy animals mentally stimulated. Dandelion (leaves and root) is a firm favourite and gently good for digestion; plantain and nettle are fibrous leaves rabbits and guinea pigs love; marigold and rose petals are pretty, aromatic and great for enrichment; dried carrot and parsnip make sweet, crunchy treats in small amounts. Always introduce one new item at a time.
