Darcy

Darcy my Rabbit was the Daughter of my Buck, she was born on the 5th September, she was 2 of 6
babies born to her momma Rabbit Charlie.
I watched her grow from a day old baby bunny,when she was 8 weeks old she came to live with us. We
had her on the Friday and she was fine, happily hopping around with my other bunny,eating and
drinking just fine. Then on the Sunday she just wasnt herself, she stopped eating and was very
still, we decided to bring her indoors to take care of her and so she was close to us. I was
tempting her with food and so was my Husband, but sadly she wouldnt eat. On the tuesday evening she
ate a little and i thought things were looking up. She bacame extremly bloated and her shape was
disfigured. On the Thursday morning we took her to the vets and he said that he didnt like the look
of her, he was concerned, he gave her some lactulose to make her go to the toilet to see if that
worked and the bloating would go. On the Thursday evening we had lots of cuddles (as we did
everyday)she would only take fluids from my hand, she lay there licking my fingers and hands which
was so very beautiful because any rabbit owner knows that you are classed as extremly special if a
bunny licks you. On the Friday morning there ws still no change, we took her back to the vets and he
administered more lactulose and a pain relief injection. We got home at 12pm and she was
deteriorating very quickly, i held her and stroked her and she was getting weaker and weaker, she
fought right up until the end and she took her last breath in my arms being stroked by my Husband
and myself. It was heartbreaking, she was 9 weeks old and my darling baby bunny. I will never forget
you my sweet Darcy, you were only with us for a very short time but you made such a beautiful impact
on my life. Binky free in Rainbow Bridge, until we meet again for a snuggle and our special
kisses..........Love you Bunny Baby xxxxxxxxx
