Description

Spinach is a small leafy green vegetable that only grows around 1 ft tall. The leaves are most commonly used by humans for consumption. The flowering is small and goes between yellow and green shades.

For Your Pet

The oxalates, which are toxins that occur naturally in spinach, can be harmful to rabbits and other small pets in larger portions. Because rabbits digestive systems are extremely sensitive, it can cause severe itching of the skin, and lower the proper function of the urinary tract.

Warning

Spinach is poisonous to your pet. Never feed spinach to your rabbit and other small pets.
