The main issue with too much celery is that the water cintent could make the faeces runny and therefore upset the tummy. In rabbits an upset stomach can lead to a condition called gut stasis which is serious. If Mei is bright and passing normal faeces she should be fine. However, if she seems at all dull or is not passing faeces I would have her checked asap.
