Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.

    You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions.

Call the vet? How long do you have to wait until someone is home?

I am seriously concerned that your bunny needs emergency vet treatment, like now. Do you have any neighbours/friends who could take you?
 
I would get a bus/taxi/train if need be.

Rabbits go downhill so fast, that by the time they look ill, it is serious.

Is the rabbit inside now? I would bring them in if not, so they are warm, as by the sounds of their problems, it probably can't regulate its temperature.


Where are you located?
