Question
My rabbit is old 6+ years.  She can't get up.  I'be been giving her water and food for last 3 days but she can't stand.  What can I do?  I thought she was dying, but she still has an appetite.  Thanks.  Linda

Answer
There is nothing you can do other than take her to the veterinarian to find out why she can't stand.  She could have a parasite, she could have paralysis, she could have a broken bone, there is no way for me to tell.

Keep her eating and drinking, but she definitely needs to be seen by a veterinarian.
