Have a quick question for you.... (Feeding lilacs)

So last night my son was picking some lilac flowers to bring in the house and it got me to thinking. Are the leaves from the lilac bush safe for the rabbits to eat every once in awhile? Or for that matter even a branch to chew on?

I personally haven't fed lilac but this site lists it as safe http://www.twincomics.com/garden.html

Maybe tomorrow I will give our mini satin a little of the leaves and see what he thinks...

Well, I don't know about lilac, but my yard doe thinks Iris flowers are pretty good ... instead of 5 purple iris' in bloom, I now only have 4

I gave one of the rabbits a few leaves and she just bit them then threw them back at me, lol. She is my strange bun though, lol.
