My bunny hasn’t pooped today and has barley eaten or drunken anything and all of the bunny vets near me are closed. What do I do?
 
If it's a minor upset stomach due to gas build up from food, usually a dose or two of baby gas drops will get my rabbits back to eating again. I do 1ml for a small rabbit, up to 3 doses an hour apart. By the second dose they often start feeling better. It's also important to keep your rabbit warm. A sick rabbit usually will have a drop of body temperature. If the ears are cold, they are cold, and a cold rabbit won't be inclined to eat.

If a rabbit isn't feeling better by the third dose of baby gas drops and it's been more than 12-24 hours since they last ate, or if the rabbit has a bloated stomach, true diarrhea, and/or their condition deteriorates or you are unsure about the rabbits condition, then it becomes an emergency and a vet needs to be found.
