Man, that rabbit is really cute...I think you should take him to a vet, that'd be the best thing to do.

I hope he gets allright

Mat :-( :-( :-( :( :( :( :-( :-( :-(
 
yep vets is the best option, i dont think any body will be able to give you advice on here unless they have experianced the same thing but im keeping my fingers crossed for you. :/
 
Sounds like something nasty going on nuerologically. It could be something simple, like an inner ear infection that caused the head tilt and poor balance. However, it could also be something more serious, like the after-effects of heat stroke/damaging seizure, a brain tumor, or a spinal injury. So, I'm glad you're bringing him to a vet. Good luck, and I hope he makes a full recovery!
 
Yup, rabbits with floppy ears are known for getting lots of ear infections which have the symptoms you describe.
Hope its nothing more serious when you take him in. Let us know how it goes :)
 
Hi peeps i am takin him 2 c the vet tmox at 6.15 so i will imform u all on what he has said i just hope is it ear eake.

hey, my rabbit had something like that. I can't remember what it is called. Half of her body wasn't functioning properly.She couldn't really walk and if she rolled over she couldn't get up. Im afraid its something you can't really treat. I had to have her put to sleep. I have had rabbits all my life and i was told alot of them get this, but she was the only one who got this. Hopefully your raabbit has something totally different, but i just want to be completely honest with you.

HI peeps bin 2 vet just got back as most of u said it is a middle ear infection as far fromt he vet can c he said it could b a sist in floppys brain thats popped or just a ear infection.He said to rule out a sist we could take bloods and exray him n stuff but that would cost about £200 or just for the drugs we have bought £50.I am going 2 c him nxt week.
thx guys
