Your rabbit may have a disease or some sickness that is causing your rabbit to die. You should take your rabbit to a lisenced vet right away and they will determine exactly what is causing the problem. If you can not take it to a vet. Make your rabbit comfortable and try to give it water and food.

I am sorry your rabbit is ill. He may have a respiratory infection, intestinal infection, or unfortunately a tumor. Rabbits are very susceptible to all of the above. He needs to be wrapped in a towel and gently taken to an exotic vet if possible, or an emergency vet given the time. Good luck. I hope it works out.

It sounds like your rabbit is really sick and might be dying. When a rabbit is barely breathing and isn't moving at all it means its system is shutting down. Even though his eyes are open, this is most likely the case. Try to make him comfortable for his last time with you.
