Hi, Stella could be suffering with a parasite E. Cuniculi which is quite frequent in rabbits. There are other conditions causing seizures and regardless from which one is causing the seizures she should be seen by a vet as she is going to sadly pass away and suffering a lot throughout the whole seizuring process. Hope you can get her to the vet soon.
