My bunny peed blood this morning which I looked up online and said there might be something wrong with her bladder. How soon should I bring her to a vet

I am sorry to hear about Babycakes! If she had blood in her urine I would bring her in to the vet's office as soon as possible. Rabbits can be delicate creatures and the sooner they are seen if sick the better. The vet will examine Babycakes and may try to take a urine sample to check for infection and crystals and recommend an x-ray to check for bladder stones.
