I'm sorry for your loss.

There are many causes of seizures in rabbits, ranging from internal matters like head injuries and genetics to environmental issues including exposure to toxic chemicals and plants. As with any type of animal, what a seizure looks like can vary quite a bit, depending on the cause. Rabbits with epilepsy may just have episodes where they seem to sit and stare blankly into space; if you didn't know the rabbit, you might never realize anything was happening. Other rabbits experience classic "grand mal" seizures (loss of consciousness and violent twitching).

Seizures aren't all that common in rabbits, though I have heard that a lot of Lionheads are prone to them. It strikes me as a bit odd that you should have two (I assume unrelated) animals that have experienced them, and one has died. I'm wondering if there is some common cause - are toxic yard chemicals (like weed killer or ant bait) stored in the basement, perhaps?

I think it was a heart attack with the other rabbit. And no the basement is filed with my moms arts and crafts. My sister is a vet but she doesn't know much on rabbits she calmed her down.
