"Burgess are the number one brand of pellets I recommend for pet rabbits. With timothy grass as the primary ingredient the Burgess range pellets are high in fibre and nutritionally balanced to meet the needs of rabbits of all ages and breeds. Burgess Indoor Rabbit pellets are fortified with vitamin D to support healthy bones, teeth and skin. "

Breeders Choice Litter

"I have been using this recycled paper litter for years and recommend it to so many clients. This litter is absorbent, biodegradable, free from chemicals, non dust- producing and can be used for all species from cats, rabbits, rodents and even reptiles. I used it for both my cat and rabbit. "

Pro Plan Hydra Care

"An excellent hydration supplement for cats. It is simple to pour over the food and my cat absolutely loves it! Extra hydration is fantastic for supporting kidneys and the urinary tract and can be an excellent supplement for cats with health conditions associated with these organ systems or even for healthy cats to improve their overall hydration and health. "

Greenies

"Greenies are one of the few pet dental treats that are VOHC (Veterinary Oral Health Council) verified. I have always recommended Greenies dental treats and my cat loves them. They have a unique shape and texture to help reduce dental plaque and freshen the breath."
