Answer
Dear Tracey,

Please read this immediately:

and get the bunny to a good rabbit vet IMMEDIATELY if you wish to save her life.  Find a good vet here:

www.rabbit.org/vets

The bunny needs subcutaneous fluids and other care if she is to survive.  PLEASE WASTE NO TIME!  She could be dead within the hour if you delay her treatment.
