  I’ve just come back from the vets, and have been told that Vienna is cured of her gut impaction . She needs to start eating fibre rich leafy greens tomorrow, can anyone recommend what would be healthiest for her?

  What veggies is she eating now? Dark green leafy veggies are the best, with limited non-leafy stuff (carrots, celery, peppers, basically everything else that doesn’t have leaves). You want her eating a ton of hay all day long. That is the main fiber source, while the veggies help with fiber and gut hydration.

  Kale, spinach, wheat grass, broccoli, most dark leafy greens…
  
  What do you use as treats? You could use high fiber fruits as treats (apples, banana, and carrots are high fiber).

  Beka27: She isn’t eating any veg at the moment, she is on a diet of hay and grass for 2 days.
  
  MoveDiagonally: She’s on a no treat diet at the moment, but those are normally her favourites.
  
  Thanks for the veggies, they’re the same things I normally feed her so I won’t have to start her on something new.
