  Kurotta may most likely need to have his blood work done tomorrow. Is there anything that I need to pay extra attention to? E.g. making sure he doesn’t have too big of a space to run, any food to avoid etc.
  
  Thanks.

  Bombur gets blood work done every 2 weeks, and the only thing I make sure to do is that he eats something before his appointment. Aside from that everything stays the same

  Alright, thanks. They may have to put him under gas sedation if he isn’t cooperative. He is generally quite wriggly especially when being restrained, but I’m wondering if it’s alright to sedate an underweight rabbit? I don’t see much choice if sedation is necessary though (also because he may need to get his molars checked).

  You can try to calm him down with some Bach’s Rescue Remedy. I don’t use it, but I know a lot of people on here have done it before and it works great. If he goes under, just make sure he’s doing the normal stuff when he finally comes to.
