BRIEF: Would these common houseplants be poisonous to my pet rabbit?


QUESTION:
I would like to know what common plants would be poisonous to a pet rabbit...Fuschias? Jade? Eucalyptus leaves?

ANSWER:

Fuschias wouldn't hurt a rabbit. Jade, probably not and I don't think they would eat eucalyptus. How old was your rabbit? If they did eat some eucalyptus, it would be at least a little irritating and might cause some serious GI problems at high enough of a dose...I don't know for sure because I have no direct experience with gum trees and bunnies.
