Floppy and Family

20/01/2026

It with a heavy heart I must let everyone know that Biscuit (BicBic Girl) passed away tonight.

I had concerns in some small changes in her over the last 10 days or so. On Friday she stopped eating hay. I mad her an appointment at Manchester Street Veterinary Surgery today and the news came back. She had a heart condition.

I stayed with her until the very end. I held her the day she was born. Like all Floppies babies, they have lived here from being born. Hugged, kissed and said goodbye. I am writing this through tears.

Floppy and all her babies never saw the inside of hutch. My heart is broken tonight and will never be the same. Each one of these very special beings fill our lives with so much joy.

Thank you to Manchester Street Veterinary Surgery for allowing me time to spend with Biscuit. She was 32 grams born and had to fight for every thing she got, be she was a true little fighter. The only girl.

Back in August this year I was alerted to a bunny in a garden near to our home. It was a bunny with no guardian and it was close to a busy road. Without hesitation I was there.

I managed to rescue the bunny. She was placed on social media to see if I could find her home. No one came forward.

We decided to call her fudge. She was then vaccinated and plans were made to have her spayed. Spaying is best for bunnies as by the time they are just 3 years old they can develop cancers with their reproductive areas. Neutering your bunny has social benefits too. As this was going to be her forever home I wanted to giver her the best chance socialising with her extended family of bunnies and moggies.

She was taken to Gourley Veterinary Surgeons CVS by 08:00am on Wednesday the 21st of December She came around from her operation but sadly passed away while still at the vets.

Fudge was only with us for 4 months (20th August 2023 to the 21st December 2023) needless to say she made a BIG impact on her human care providers. In the last 4 months I have never been to the downstairs alone, fudge loved to spend time in the loo too.

As I am sure you can imagine we are all heart broken at the outcome and it was not what we expected. We made every effort for fudge to ensure just like Basil (11 years young) Tibby, Biscuit and Bear always get the best care, access to the garden with fresh grass, constant access to fresh hay and good quality bunny food. (Burgess Pet Care)

If you are have a bunny you are planning on getting nurtured please do your research. Ask your vet as many questions as you can.

BIG Thank you to Springfield farm Pet Cremation for their amazing support. They even collected our pet carrier for us. Thank You!

It’s with extreme sadness I write this post! I never thought this morning I would be sharing such heart breaking news.

I came home tonight. As I was getting the babies ready for bed, I could not find Floppy. I found her in her hiding hut. She was cold and lifeless.

Her heart was still beating so I got my sister to get a hot water bottle.

I did what I could in the following 20 minutes. Sadly Floppy passed away in my arms.

To say I am upset does not even begin to cover it.

Take care of what you treasure, you just never know how long your treasured will be around.

Looks like Bear is getting a good wash from Tibby and Basil.

After months of careful supervision I am pleased to say we have a bunny family. Now and then there are small distance chases. In the main, all is going very well.

Don't Panic,

You may notice some posts being deleted from the Floppy and Family page in the coming days and weeks. These posts are not gone for good. They are being moved to MeWe. You see, MeWe takes privacy seriously, MeWe has no third-party adverts. Best of all, on MeWe, your data is safe, it's not for sale.

So Floppy and Family need to move to MeWe because I will not be on Facebook for too much longer. So much so, I have no friends now on Facebook.

I will begin moving Floppy and Family at the rate of around 10 - 20 posts each day. You will not see these posts straight away. They will be scheduled to go out on MeWe on the anniversary of their original posting to Facebook!

If you do join MeWe, have a look around at the groups and other pages that are there. See you on the other side.

Due to the privacy of my personal information and Facebook no longer being a Social Network, but a Data Mining Company. There will be no further posts made to Floppy and Family page. All the current posts will be reposted in date order over on MeWe.

Here is the link if you would like to keep up with the goings-on.

MeWe even has a Privacy Bill Of Rights.

Just to let everyone know, Floppy and Family will be moving to a new platform over the coming weeks.

It will take a while as there is a lot to move. I would like to thank everyone who has supported Floppy and Family here on Facebook.

WHY?

I have not taken this decision lightly. It's a large amount of data to move away from one platform to another. However, in recent months Facebook has changed various things. The main reason that I decided to move Floppy and Family is due to Facebooks Privacy Policy. There are various things that now alarm me with Facebook. As I am closing my personal profile down I needed to find a platform that places privacy at the heart of everything.

WHERE ARE FLOPPY AND FAMILY MOVING TO?

We are moving just a couple of mouse clicks away to a great platform called MeWe. You can join us over on MeWe right now. Here is the link https://mewe.com/p/floppyandfamily

WILL YOU STILL POST TO FACEBOOK?

No. As I will not have a personal Facebook account I will no longer be posting here. 4 weeks from now I will have no further dealings with Facebook, Instagram or WhatsApp. All these brands are owned by Facebook.

I cannot thank everyone enough for the help and support you have given to Floppy and Family while we have been on Facebook.

I hope you will join us in our new home and download the app too!
