  Here’s a link to a video demonstrating the bunny heimlich: http://rabbit.org/the-heimlich-maneuver/
  
  How is your bun doing now? Choking is as you understand very serious. Your main objective is of course to get your bunny to breathe . Risk is not over after that, but the acute danger is, so you’ll have time to find a vet. Please keep us updated.
