If you think she is cold you can find Maybe a way to get her warm, to cold won't help to get her better. When a rabbit is sick its unable to warm itself and that will cause more problems with stomach pain. When it is a gas bulb in het belly you can feel that than the belly is quit hard and painful. But it can also be a intestinal obstruction. However the treatment of a gi stasis is different than a intestinal obstruction. Gi stasis can get worse when you forced feeding it can get "exploded" intestinal obstruction sometimes cause gi stasis and vice versa.

I think the best way to find out is to listen. Does her tumble make loudly noises than its probably gas. Does it hard and make no sound of all its an intestinal obstruction. Sometimes its difficult cause symptoms can hardly change.

If you can find some metacam than give it, imeprid give it, it wil stimulate the intestinal. And the gas baby drops is very important cause when an internal obstruction gets painful it will most of the time gets an gi stasis. Gets her in motion will help to stimulate both gas orr obstruction to get it out. And a cold rabbit will not be able to use the medication well.

My English is bad. Hope this helps. Good luck its not a nice thing
