My rabbit is acting weird! PLEASE HELP

[Out of this world bunnies]

My male NZ rabbit has a runny nose and when i went outside to check on him he was laying down and his heartbeat was as rapid as a machine gun it is slowing down now and his runny nose has stopped any advice?

Is it warm where you are? Was the discharge from the nose clear or milky?

Your rabbit was suffering from heat stroke. It's possible he could recover alright, but the best thing at this point would be to get him right into a rabbit savvy vet immediately to get checked as an emergency appt.

You also will need to keep him inside where it is cool.

You should just be aware that severe heat stroke can cause irreversible brain, heart, kidney damage, and can be fatal. It's essential to prevent a rabbit from becoming overheated so these things don't occur.

It sounds like the heat stroke that your bun experienced could have been severe, but the only way to know for sure if any damage was done would be to take him to the vet to get checked.

I'm glad he's doing better.

Okay thank you!

For future reference, temps over 85F can cause heatstroke. (Temps closer to 80F can also cause it if the humidity is high.)
Glad he seems better.
