When there is no drinking fountain to feed the rabbit, you can use a needle to feed the rabbit water. Buy some disposable syringes, remove the sharp part of the needle, use the syringe to suck up the water, then hold the rabbit, put the head of the syringe in the rabbit's mouth, and press the needle. However, this method is not a long-term solution. It is more appropriate to buy a drinking fountain as early as possible to feed rabbits.

Notes on feeding water to rabbits:

1. When using a needle to feed water to rabbits, do not press too fast to avoid choking and coughing. , if this phenomenon really occurs, pat its back immediately to prevent the rabbit from choking to death.

2. Do not use a basin when feeding water to rabbits. Rabbits’ mouths are different from those of cats and dogs. Drinking water from a basin can easily cause stomatitis and jaw ulcers in rabbits, which are difficult to cure.

3. When feeding rabbits, feed them cold boiled water. There are many bacteria and parasites in tap water, which can easily cause rabbits to get sick.
