Some of you may have noticed I haven’t posted about Honey for a while. I’ve been trying to think of the best way to post about it but there is no easy way.
On April 13th 2023 - three months to the day, we had to make a very hard decision to send Honey across the rainbow bridge 🌈🥺
It wasn’t one we took lightly and we thought about it for a good few days, but couldn’t watch her suffer any longer.
She had started sitting and staring into space - usually she would be lying on her buffer, legs stretched out and content, but this wasn’t the Honey we knew. She then fell over a couple of times and stopped eating much, so we went to the vet. They could feel something to the side of her head and thought there must be some sort of growth going on. Of course due to her age (12 years & 7 months) anaesthetic would be risky to X-ray her and then surgery to remove anything would also have been very risky and I doubt she would’ve made it.
The vet gave her a strong opioid painkiller so we could spend one last day with her. As you can imagine she was pretty out of it, but still mustered up the strength to eat some parsley 🥺
I stayed up all night with my gorgeous girl, having cuddles and telling her how much I loved her and how special she was 😢
The time then came to go to the vets. The vet took her away to put a cannula in her ear and brought her back. I hugged that baby girl so much and gave her kisses until the end, telling her how much I love her.
It happened so quickly, my little Honey was gone. I was distraught. The best part of 13 years with her, her cuddles when I was sick and her cheeky ways when I needed cheering up. Gone.
For weeks afterwards I was just in shock and even still break down in tears as I miss her so much.
The other bunnies have helped, but no bun will be as special as my little Honey pot.
Rest in peace baby girl 🕊️ 09/2010 - 13/4/2023 🕊️
