What might it mean if your rabbit is wheezing but showing no signs of distress?

Wheezing IS a sign of distress. Rabbits shouldn't make any noise when they breathe.
If your rabbit is breathing through its mouth (rather than its nose), that is also a very serious sign of distress (even if it isn't wheezing or making noise).
Wheezing or any sign of difficulty breathing could indicate a respiratory infection, or an injury or obstruction of some kind.
It's a good idea to bring your rabbit to your vet the moment you notice something is wrong. The thing about bunnies is that when they aren't feeling well (for any reason), they can deteriorate really quickly -- more than cats, dogs, and humans, for instance.
If you don't have a vet already, make sure you find one who has experience with rabbits. The House Rabbit Society website has some good info and vet listings if you need help with that. It's really important to find a rabbit-savvy vet because most vets don't know about how to treat them. For example, I've heard of vets putting pet rabbits down for having "snuffles," but that's just an upper respiratory infection and can usually be treated with a dose of antibiotics.

What will make my rabbit happy again?
When your rabbit is sad or unhappy, it might not even be your fault but it is your rabbit so it is your job to make it happy again. My rabbit once jumped out of my arms into a bush but just sat there when a big wet dirty golden retriever was chasing it. It depends how long you have had you rabbit.If you got your rabbit a few months ago then I guess it is probably just rabbit puberty.

A baby bunny got very wet what should you do?
A good towelling, replacing the towels as they become wet. You could possibly use a hairdryer on a very gentle medium heat, but this might further distress the rabbit, so if your pet isn't used to this treatment, don't try it. Once you've removed most of the water, your best option is to keep the rabbit in some kind of pocket or pouch close to your skin. This will reduce distress and give comfort.

How might a change of water supply effect a rabbit?
The rabbit may be introduced to certain minerals that affect the taste of the water. If he finds the taste objectionable he will not drink, if he does not drink he will not eat (called going off his feed). To help keep the taste of the water the same (and keep your rabbit eating) certain electrolytes can be added to the water regularly OR a small amount of flavored jello can be added to mask the taste and therefore mask the taste when you are traveling (showing) your rabbit.
