  I *thought* I had enough hay for the blizzard but I’m running out and I wasn’t able to get my car out today. If I still can’t budge it tomorrow I’m really in trouble. Even the buses are shut down.
  
  I’ve never run out of hay before so I don’t know if I can just sub lots of greens and they’ll be okay a few days. There’s a grocery store in walking distance and they’re open despite the mess, so I can get greens and veggies there. Can bunnies survive a day or two on that? What are my best options as hay substitutes?
  
  Thanks!

  Honestly they should be fine for a few days. They may not be happy but they’ll be fine with the greens. These things happen.

  Oh, okay, thanks. I’m so paranoid about all the things that can happen to their digestive system. I’ll make sure I get extra special things to make it up to them. 🙂 Quincy can be picky but Beulah just snorts up whatever edible thing I put in front of her.
  
  Hopefully I’ll be able to drive at least by tomorrow.
