Hello, I'm Dr. Bob. You are right to be concerned about your rabbit. He is showing signs of intestinal and respiratory illness.
Until you can get him to your veterinarian, keep him warm and quiet. Offer food and water, but don't try to force him to eat or drink.
That is really about all you can do for him at home. Good luck!
