Oh Poo where do I begin? The hole you left in my heart is so big that nothing can ever fill it in. You were the sweetest bunn that ever was. No demands save one – you wanted love and lots of it. Ankle nudges heel nips thumping tail wiggling – you had all sort of ways to get our attention not that we were ever far away from you. I so desperately miss speaking to you in “deep rabbit”-those wonderful weekend mornings when we’d snuggle up to you on the living room rug and listen to your sounds – teeth grinding in happiness whiffling and snuffling as you dreamed of big fields of rye grass your favorite treat. Next to bananas of course – there was nothing you wouldn’t do to get a banana treat. Sleeping with us in bed in the morning. You were 14 pounds of snowy white fluff and love; what a plush girl you were. I especially miss bunny kisses. Nothing like that velvety tongue giving an eye wash!
The day you left me my heart broke. You waited for me to come home so I wouldn’t find you gone. You waited for me – I still can’t believe it. You slipped away so quietly while I held you. Just a whisper and you were gone. The vet said it would be painless for you; I’m glad I was with you so I know that for sure. It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done staying with you that night. I wanted to run away but you looked at me with such love in those big eyes I knew I had to stay with you so you wouldn’t be alone. I’d give anything to have you back with me. But I know you are at the Rainbow Bridge waiting for me with your whiskers twitching. I promise I’ll bring bananas and rye grass and we’ll romp together forever. Be well there my “fish”. There will never be another.
