PLEASE HELP!!! My rabbit is very sick he won't eat, he can't stand up. He's had diorrhea. I can't take him to a vet!!!

NEWS: He's now standing up and moving a bit still won't eat but at least he's standing up!!! I'll try squirting food down his throat and hope he'll forgive me..



Bunny now stiff, breathing but having fits. I'm going to end his suffering I think it was something else not diorrhea but thank you everyone...

Rabbit passed away naturally at 6:53pm Aust. Time. :'(

    It won't last more than a day if the diarrhea continues. Make sure you give your pet plenty of liquid and try feeding him. Try to find some rehydration formula. I'll look.

    Give him some Pedia Care so his electrolytes don't go haywire because of dehydration. It will cost you less than five dollars at any Wallgreens. What's your bunnies name? I hope he's ok

    he wont eat thats the problem I've given him dry food and water he's refusing to eat! We all call him bunny or baby (I have a lot of pets so we all call them baby) but he's my favourite, I got him when i was down and he was there to cuddle me I'll be devastated if I lose him. I can't afford a vet :( and I don't have a phone or car...

    Sorry!! We use water of green coconut - coconut which skin stays green even if it dried/old. if it's not available (many here - no need vet), just coconut. Not the milk, but the clear water inside it. It really help.

    At least call the RSPCA or an animal shelter. If you can't afford a vet, call every vet in the book, if a shelter won't help, and beg for free help. He will die if you don't get help. He sounds very sick. Make sure he has plenty of fresh water.
    Could he have a tick?

    As a kid I had a rabbit till its teeth started going and was advised by the vet to have it put down. I think lettuce used to give it the craps...They don't last long.
