๐About Can Rabbits Eat Pears?
Pear flesh is safe for rabbits in small amounts. Like apples, the seeds contain amygdalin and must be removed. Pear tree twigs and branches from unsprayed trees are excellent chewing material for rabbits, helping keep teeth worn down. The fruit is relatively high in sugar and should be a treat only.
