Eating, sleeping, toileting, breathing, moving isn't quality life, its just life.
So what is QOF? (Quality Of Life)
We like to do this > formulate a list of your rabbits favourite things to do.
That could be - jumping on the windowsill to window watch, digging the corner of their favourite carpet, or running to greet you at the door for kisses when you come home.
For Behemoth, that was:
🌳 Going outside in the garden to sit upon his stump and eat the apple leaves off the tree
🥀 Free foraging himself to whatever plants he wanted
🐰 Looking after his companions and keeping them in check
Are they temporarily unable to do these things but will be able again? Or are they permanently unable and won't again?
The time came for us to ask, can he do his favourite things anymore and will that change? The answer was clear, but this is a reality that many of us do not wish to be faced with.
Sometimes we need hard evidence to help back up what we already know and feel deep down. A scan or blood tests can be helpful when making these difficult decisions. In Behemoth's case, it reaffirmed it was time for him to be reunited with his siblings. 🌈 🪽
