I have a 6-year-old bunny who is not standing, her head is turning to the side, and she is breathing heavier than usual. She has not been out of the cage in a few days, and it seems she might have broken her back due to the way her hind leg is not under her as usual. What could be wrong with her, and what can I do for her?

Since talking to you last night, Abby hasn't gotten any better. She did drink some of the chicken broth, but giving her crushed meds through a syringe doesn't work. Today, she ate some roast beef and corn tortillas but won't drink. I contacted her vet, who agreed to board her, give her meds, IV fluids, and food for a week. They will also give her tramadol for dysplasia. She's been lying on the couch all day, had a dark BM this morning, and isn't herself. I hope the vet boarding her and giving her the right treatment will clear this up. Is there anything else I'm missing?
