I'm sure if you warm him up and keep him dry he'll be ok. Be sure to move his bed away from the rain!! Give him lots of snuggles. Whenever my ourdoor buns were cold I used to put them under my jumper or fleece so they were getting some of my body heat but it depends how squiggily your bun is.

Hope hes ok

I only put him out cos of my ex.Mrs Bun and Beebee both lived indoors all winter and I put them out a couple of months ago.But, now my partner no longer lives with me...
the spare room is now gonna be converted into a bunny room!!

Beebee is still wrapped ina jumper with the hottie.Hes now warming up a bit and ive given him some rocket but hes not touched it.
 
Has he had anything to drink? I've heard people on here recommending cooled boiled water for dehydration, just made me think maybe a bit of warmish water (cooled boiled tho, not warm out the tap) might help?
 
Poor wee mite....hes making very snuffly noises (but always did), on baytril and eating/drinking well.Spent an hour or two in bed with me last night....:roll:
 
how is he tonight? sniffling improving?
ETA: SORRY, JUST READ YOUR UPDATE. GLAD HE'S FEELING BETTER:)
