Is it safe to give the pigs toys that the rabbit has got bored of? Would they need sterilising or anything first?
 
I'd also recommend giving it a good wash due to the fact that bunnies carry a bacteria (which i can't remember the name of) that is harmful to piggies !

Hi. you are thinking of bordetella which can be carried by bunnies and cause respiratory diesease in guinea pigs ... which is also one of the reasons they should not be housed together. i would disinfect toys previously used by bunnies before giving them to piggies.:)
