  So last night my rabbit Noel hadn’t eaten or touched any of his lettuce. I thought maybe he just wasn’t hungry so i left it overnight. In the morning i went down and he still hadn’t eaten it. I tried feeding him parsley, bananas, kibble, treats; he isn’t eating any of it. What should i do?

  I would take him to the vet asap. Not eating for several hours is not a good sign for a rabbit at all. It can be seriously dangerous.
  
  Is he pooping? Has he been eating hay? You can try and give him simethicone to relieve potential gassiness, but since he’s gone an entire night without eating veggies and has barely eaten today, he may need formal intervention with a rabbit vet.
