How can I throw a AnimalDontEatThisException

in my planteater class I got this one:
public override String eat(string food)

Instead of returning a "Usschhhhhhh" when the animal don like the food I am supposted to throw a AnimalDontEatThisException. How?

Can I code so it does the same thing as now but throws the exception???
Show me please

I get Error      1      The type or namespace name 'AnimalDontEatThisException' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)      

My planteater is in a dll   and my animalpark is in my project

What more do I need?
