Hello. A bunny that isn't eating and has runny poop is an emergency. He could have gastric stasis or other gastric diseases. I recommend you get him to a vet immediately. He needs medications to start up his gut again and talk to your vet about housing, diet, and stress. A bunny that isn't eating can get deathly sick very quickly. Good luck with Alfie.
