When a rabbit does not want to eat, it is imperative to force feed it some herbivorous nutrition. Common choices include Critical Care, Critter Be Better, pellet mush, and more.
A rabbit should be drinking mostly water. However, an owner may choose to tempt a rabbit into drinking using non-caffeinated herbal teas or diluted non-sweetened juice.

Clean up the pooh and urine to avoid infection and don't give your rabbit any lettuce as it causes runny pooh.WillowArcane here If you can afford it, take it to the vet immediately. One of the most important things my vet once told me is that "wild rabbits dont get sick". Meaning, that under normal circumstances, rabbits very rarely get sick so when they do, it could easily be something serious. A vet trip is always the safest option.

Why is my rabbit drinking so much in winter?
If this is the first winter you've seen your rabbit doing this (drinking more water than before), then maybe it has nothing to do with the season. Rabbits sometimes drink too much water when they're sick (e.g. kidney or liver failure, or to relieve pain in the mouth). If your rabbit is drinking and/or urinating more than she used to, bring her to the special "rabbit-savvy" vet so that illness can be ruled out (or treated, if necessary).Anytime your rabbit changes behaviour, and it's not because she's sick, you should look at anything in her environment that's changed:Do you feed less fresh greens in the winter?Do you really pump up the heating?Have you switched to a pellet with higher salt content?Is your rabbit shedding?Any of these reasons could cause your rabbit to drink more water than before.
What would you feed an ill rabbit?
A sick rabbit should eat the same diet as a healthy rabbit. It's important that rabbits keep eating even if they're ill, because rabbits can't safely fast like humans and other animals can, and by not eating, the rabbit will only get more sick. Sudden changes in a rabbit's diet can also make it ill, so if possible it's best not to make sudden changes when a rabbit is ill because it will only get more sick.
