Answer 1

Ummm, I could be a could but if her nose is bleeding it could a pressure dropp or since her legs are limping and shes sleeping slepping longer it could be a neurolgic prob. BUT Since im not a pro. vet u should call a Emergency Vet and tell the her symptoms Even if u cant bring her in aleast u know what she has and maybe you can make it better. I know this becuz my bunny just started having so i called um so it might help.

:) Hoped i helped and hope she gets better.

P>S>  It also could be an internal or intestent thing.  So this may sound kinda wieard  but check if her urine or p**p looks weard. If it does make sure u go to a vet... as soon as ur able. :( i know u dont want to here this because a pet is a part of you almost like a family member!! GOD BLESS!!!

Answer 2

does she have a wire cage? Does she chew on her bars? If so she may have neurological problems and her teeth may be growing into her brain if she's been chewing the bars all the time. Does she bob her head or act loopy and not just limping?

Do you use ceder shavings as bedding? If so she could have serious pnumonia or respiratory illness.

Is the blood coming from her nostrils or is there a cut in her fur near her nose that she could have gotten from chewing on something or falling?

Perhaps the limping is from falling out of her wheel, or from a neurological problem. I'd recommend taking her to a vet ASAP or at least calling a vet or a pet store and asking them what they think it may be.

Has anyone else in your family had access to her or played with her while you weren't there? Perhaps they may know something.

Answer 3

has she been mistreated or dropped??

Answer 4

she may have a cold and is trying to rest but it might have been attacked if it has a bloody nose and is limping. do you have a cat?

if its sick i don't know why it would be limping
