Question
I have a mini lop name Oreo, this morning i went down to feed him like normal and i notice that he was breathing deeply and i gave him Vet Rx. it helped. but he is not eating or drinking and he is not using his litter box. i am very worried! and i just gave him that medicine. so what else should i do? and i don't want to lose him.

Answer
Hi Alexandra. I think you need to take Oreo to the vet. The fact that he is not eating and not going potty tells me he is in serious trouble. Contact a vet as soon as you can. Bunnies that don't eat or drink will not live very long.  Let me know what happens.   Pat
