Hello, my 10 month old bunny, Lola, is acting strange tonight, earlier today she ran up to the cage excited for food now a few hours past now she is just laying in the corner, her nose isn't moving and she peed herself, I picked her up and she was just a lot calmer than she usually is when I do that... I worried sick for her. I've seen this before but this seems worse. . . What should I do? What can I do?
 
I’d take her straight to the vet. I’ve found that you can’t take chances with these kind of things, as rabbits can go from okay to unsavable in the matter of a day. If it turns out nothing is wrong, at least you made 100% sure everything’s fine. Best of luck.
 
If you catch it early enough(before it's been 12 hours since they last ate), sometimes simethicone baby gas drops will help if it's mild gas that is causing an upset stomach, but since this started yesterday if she isn't back to her normal self this morning and eating, I also would suggest getting her seen by an experienced rabbit vet as soon as possible today. They'll need to check for the reason why she's subdued and not feeling well. If it's stomach upset, then they will give her pain and gut meds for you to give at home, as well as a syringe feeding mix for you to feed her throughout the day.
