My rabbit, Nova, is a 3.5 year old mini lop. She's been an outdoor bunny her entire life, and since we live in Minnesota, it's pretty snowy right now.
Last night, we realized that she hadn't eaten or drank anything, and we began to worry. She was also very sluggish, with little responses to our touch and from what we could tell, she hadn't moved from her spot all day. My family worried that she wasn't going to make it through the night.
We brought her inside to make sure she could warm up (we don't think this was the problem, we think that she began to overheat actually), and then we used a plastic syringe to force feed her some mashed up apples (her favorite) and water. Her teeth were fine, so there has to be some other issue.
She made it through the night, ate one apple that we had left in her cage, and is now sleeping.
Does it anyone know of any way we could help her more, short of taking her somewhere else? I'm desperate.
