i have a bunny with a head tilt myself. he's just a little guy too (less than a year old). he has pasturella. while it's not always fatal, it is treatable, however not curable. i took my sammy to the vet when i started noticing a slight tilt, and they prescribed him baytril. it's not very expensive at all. we had him on it for about a month and a half. he still has a head tilt, but he is a very happy bunny, and is still very active. this disease progresses very quickly, and he did almost die. my vet told me that since the disease can cause absesses, he may have had one in his inner ear. thus, giving him the tilt. we had sammy on orapred. the oral version of prednisone, which is a steriod that brings down inflammation. your local pharmacy will carry it, however it is by prescription. this helped him the most with the head tilt. you bunny may always have a head tilt, but as long as he/she is eating and happy, it's well worth the time, money, and effort. good luck! *^_^*
