Assistant: I'll do all I can to help. The Expert will know if your rabbit will be able to digest that. What is your rabbit's name and age?
Customer: His name is ***** ***** he’s 4
Assistant: Is there anything else important you think the Veterinarian should know about Bean?
Customer: He weighs 2.2 pounds and has history with gas

The problem is rabbits can not vomit to remove the ivy. Do you have a clinic in your area that sees rabbits ? I ask Thos such that we may need to be seen for fluid therapy and assistance to deal with this in the GI tract

I would recommend to be seen at that clinic to see if they can do any type of gastric lavage or administer any products to help the toxins pass through the system without being absorbed into the body.
