Oxbow chewable Papaya Tablets are made from the freshest pineapple and papaya available. Papaya Tablets are a natural source of papain and bromelain. These enzymes may help soften food and hair in the stomach. Always make sure your piggy/rabbit is drinking plenty of water, as water consumption plays a big part in maintaining digestive motility thus improving the health and efficiency of the digestive system. As with any treats, be careful not to overfeed. Treats should be offered as a reward and be a minor part of your pets daily food intake. Offer 1-2 tablets daily.  Breaking the tablet in half will release an aroma to enhance consumption.
