Try to offer your rabbit some fresh water and hay and check to make sure she is passing feces. If she refuses food and/or is not defecating then you should take her in to be examined by your vet as soon as possible. She may be in the early stages of gastric stasis which can be a very painful and is a serious disease in rabbits. I hope this helps. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Best of luck.
