常見問題
1. 為何選擇Joy & Fibre®?
除了天然微甜的草味增加了Joy & Fibre®提摩西草的適口性,Joy & Fibre®盒裝提摩西草更經人手挑選,為寵物提供葉和莖比例平均的高質素牧草。這些豐富而又適量的纖維成份更能維持寵物腸道的正常運作和避免牙科疾病。
2. 何以提摩西草對小寵那麼重要?
提摩西草是兔子、天竺鼠及龍貓等小寵的重要膳食成份,佔牠們日常攝取的70%。特別是兔子,主人每天應時刻為兔子提供新鮮牧草,因為牧草在兔子的膳食中佔高達80-90%。提摩西草中的豐富粗纖維量有助減低寵物因毛球積聚而引致腸道阻塞的風險。而且提摩西草亦有磨牙作用,此點對小寵而言尤其重要。
3. 各款牧草有什麼不同呢?
主草
提摩西草
市面上主要有兩大種提摩西草:1st Cut 和 2nd Cut。1st Cut 為第一次收割的草,較高纖,低蛋白質,莖粗、葉少;2nd Cut 則為第二次收割,纖維較1st Cut低,蛋白質較1st Cut高,莖較幼身、葉多。
-
適合各個年齡期的兔子,是主要的牧草
-
高纖維可以促進消化和腸道功能,亦能幫助兔子排出在理毛時吃掉的毛,以避免發生毛球症
-
低鈣及低蛋白質也可以預防尿結石和肥胖
副草
苜蓿草
成年的兔子(六個月以上)若非有特別原因,都不需額外地餵飼此草,因為苜蓿草營養偏高,多吃易造成兔子痾軟便、過胖及產生鈣尿,嚴重時更會有尿道結石的問題。
-
適合幼兔(6個月以下)、產後、偏瘦及生病時需要營養的兔子
-
高鈣高蛋白質、纖維質較低
果樹草
-
適合各個年齡期的兔子
-
與提摩西草相比,果樹草的適口性較高。因為果樹草的草香味較少,但有略甜的味道,通常更合適嘴刁的兔子。
燕麥草
燕麥草有微香的甜麥味,可當零食或增加食草豐富度時所給予。碰到挑食的兔子時,亦可以酌量混合主草來餵飼。粗莖、脆口、葉少是它的特性,而且高纖維,可以幫助消化和腸道功能,粗粗的梗對磨牙也有很好的效果。
4. 是什麼原因令寵物不願進食牧草?有什麼解決方法呢?
有很多不同的因素均會導致寵物不願意進食牧草:
-
牙齒問題: 不正常的牙齒生長會引起的咀嚼不適,因此需要帶寵物到獸醫診所接受治療。
-
牧草放置的位置: 寵物有牠們鍾愛的進食區域,如果牧草放在讓牠們感到不安的地方,有機會令牠們失去食慾。因此可嘗試找出並把牧草放在能令寵物感到安心及舒適的位置,例如小盒子。
-
情緒因素: 有些寵物會對吃牧草感到沉悶。為解決此問題,可以為寵物準備一些幫助進食牧草的有趣玩具。
-
腸塞情況: 在換毛期間兔兔有可能吃下大量的毛毛,因此毛球或會結聚於腸胃內而發生腸塞, 如果飼主留意到兔子在12至24小時內,完全不吃不喝或減少飲水,便應馬上求醫。
5. 我該怎樣儲存牧草呢?
避免受陽光直射或曝露於燈光下。開封後請封好儲放,以免牧草因受潮而影響品質。
6. 什麼寵物適合提摩西草呢?
兔子、天竺鼠、龍貓及陸龜都適合。
