写给正在养小兔子的朋友们

[luv小兔子]

请不要给你们心爱的小兔子用猫沙，猫沙会让兔子中毒导致死亡！！

陪着我4年了的宝贝刚刚离开了我， 他身体一直健康， 突然有天晚上发现

他全身无力的趴在地上，只能等到早上医院开门送去抢救，结果抢救无效

化验报告显示他各项指标都大大超出了正常范围， 医生怀疑是长期中毒

至少有1个月左右, 并说兔子很容易隐藏自己的病情，往往一旦发现就太迟了

我和男朋友都想不通为什么会这样， 我们对他就像是自己的babi，不可能让

他误吃有毒食物。回到家里，我静静的坐在他的小窝旁边，开始怀疑旁边的

猫沙， 说明只写了请不要摆放靠近食物。 而且猫沙已经用了1年了，并没

有什么异样, 猫都能安全使用应该不是这个问题。 然后上网去查，

果然猫沙就是凶手。 而且这盒猫沙就是made of clay

下面是引用一些关于cat litter的文章
- Stay away from litters made from softwoods, like pine or cedar shavings or chips, as these products are thought to cause liver damage in rabbits who use them. CatWorks litter has been linked to zinc poisoning. Swheat Scoop Litter should be avoided, because rabbits will often ingest it. Because it is comprised of wheat, it is very high in carbohydrates and can cause obesity, excessive cecal production, diarrhea, bacterial imbalance, and other health issues.

-clay litter is dusty--if your bunny is a digger, the dust can make her vulnerable to pneumonia
the deodorant crystals in some clay litters are toxic
clumping litters will clump inside the rabbit's digestive and respiratory tracts (the latter if they manage to make enough dust to breathe) causing serious problems and often leading to death
pine and cedar shavings emit gases that cause liver damage when breathed by the bunny


悔恨自己的无知，粗心导致一个小生命的离开.
希望你们的宝贝能健康快乐的陪伴着你.

真是可惜，谢谢楼主的帖子，很有帮助，我也会告诉我的朋友，避免再次发生。

知道怎么劝，你们都会很难过，不过尽量别难过了。

问LZ个问题，有没有看到这样的文章？

猫沙对人，有害吗？

什么样的木屑，对兔子是安全的呢？

小兔刚走，如果LZ有心情就回答，如果没有，也不着急，或者其他知道的高手，告诉下

谢谢mike教练的关心，希望这些对喜欢小兔子的朋友有所警惕！
看了一些关于猫沙的文章，好像对小猫的肺部也有一定的危险。
最好选择 dust free, no fragrance or dyes.
怀孕中的女人最好不要清理猫沙，因为小猫的粪便里面会有寄生虫。 目前没有看到什么文章说对人有害的， 只要清理猫沙后注意洗手就好了。

宠物店卖的木屑，还有paper litter对小兔子都很安全.
House Rabbit Society recommends organic litters, made from alfalfa, oat, citrus or paper.

---
Clumping clay litter, which forms a hard ball when it gets wet, is
one of the most harmful types on the market. Several brands use this
clay to make thier litter easier to scoop. What makes it clump? It's a
natural clay ingredient called sodium bentonite. In this case,
"natural" is not always safe. Here's the problem: When this clay gets
wet it expands and forms a hard mass. So when your cat or kitten digs
in the litter box it's stirring up clay dust and breathing it in. Once
it gets into their lungs, it expands from the moisture, and in time
builds up, causing all sorts of lung problems
