The volume and number of feedings must be adjusted based on the patient and clinical condition. For a personalized feeding plan tailored to specific circumstances, consultation with a qualified rabbit veterinarian is strongly recommended.

Oxbow's formula for:
Critical Care (Anise & Apple-Banana): 3 tbsp (~9 grams) + 6 tbsp warm water per kg of body weight (per day).
Critical Care Fine Grind - Papaya: 3 tbsp (~9 grams) + 7.5 tbsp warm water per kg of body weight (per day).

Oxbow's feeding: "Amounts are general guidelines. Divide into 4 to 6 feedings unless specified by your veterinarian. Water should be available to the animal at all times. Prepare fresh at each feeding; discard after 24 hours. Store in a cool, dry place."

       "Developed with the assistance of top exotics veterinarians and nutritionists, Critical Care is the industry standard in recovery nutrition for herbivores with poor nutritional status resulting from illness or surgery. Critical Care contains all the essential nutrients of a complete diet, as well as high-fiber timothy hay to support proper gut physiology and digestion." - Oxbow

       "Some recovery and emergency cases require added versatility when it comes to delivering critical nutrition. Critical Care Fine Grind contains the same essential nutrition as Critical Care, but in a finer particle size made to flow easily through nasogastric feeding tubes as small as 5 Fr. Because of its smaller particle size, Critical Care Fine Grind is ideal for use with small and young patients." - Oxbow
