  Hello,
  
  I let my bunny out his cage every morning and he usually runs around, thismorning he didnt. I offered him his favourite food (kale) and he refused it, he also refused drinking water. He seems a lot more placid and i was wondering if he was just sleepy or sick? Not sure whether to call the vet.
  
  Thanks

  He should see a vet ASAP. Is he eating anything? He could have gas or be going into stasis.
  
  Has he been pooping normally?

  How is your bunny doing now?
  
  If a bunny wont eat, its always serious. Sometimes it’s gas, so you can try giving baby gas drops (simethicone) and see if it helps within 20-30 minutes. Also try to make the bun move around to help gas escape.
  
  If it’s not gas, a vet must be contacted. A bunny can’t go many hours without eating.
