My 6 at RB since September

Since Mid-September, i have had 6 sad losses, i had managed over 2 years with no losses at all, then they all came at once, its been a terrible time here i thought they should all be remembered together, as they are all burried in the same flower bed.

Riley Finn went first



Then Mojo



Then my foster bunny Bobby, who was not technically mine, but as i knew he was terminal, he was one of mine as he was staying with me forever



Then Big Oose



Follwed by wee Summer



And last night, Frodo



All lost to non related age or medical issues, Riley and Summer were old bunnies, Frodo had kidney failure, Bobby had an ear abscess, Oose had a suspected heart attack, and Mojo, i will never know why he was taken from me . Devastating, my group of 9 is now a group of 4 . Taffy, Holly, Willow and Giles are a strongly bonded group, who dearly miss their friends. I just hope the pain will stop for a long time. If it wasnt for the fact i adopted the english lops the other week, i think i would be ready to give up by now . If love could keep them alive, they would never leave us......

I am so sorry, it must be unbearable to lose them so close together

Oh Sharon not Frodo as well I'm so very sorry

I felt a great sence of sadness as I scrolled down all your bunnies photo's remembering how they all were when Mike and I had the great
pleasure of meeting them and then I got to wee Summer and I have just burst into tears as I really loved Summer, there was just
something about her that melted my heart although she lived in her own little world she was so happy and content and I can see her
now sat in that tug bucket nibbling away at her hay, she was just so sweet.

To lose 6 like this is devastating and my heart goes out to you sending you big hugs

Binky free forever at the Bridge gorgeous Frodo all well again xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

oh my thats awful news about them all but frodo last night too
binky free at the bridge all you gorgeous babies

I cannot explain how sorry I am, this must be absolutely awful for you

The only thing I can say is take comfort in the fact that they are all together at the bridge again now, pain free and binkying around everywhere.

Binky free Frodo and all of the other beautiful bunnies

These are for you

Arrr I'm so sorry to hear about all your losses it must have been very very hard to lose 5 rabbits and now poor Frodo .
But remember they all had a brilliant life in your care.
I know how it feels I've lost 4 gerbil who I loved dearly .
Remember that they'll always be with you no matter what.
Thinking of you....

I'm so sorry you've had such an awful few months

Thankyou so much for doing such a wonderful job of loving and looking after these guys, and continuing to do so for more bunnies despite the heartache

Thank you, all your kind words have made me cry again

I just feel numb with it all to be honest, and i honestly would be calling it a day if i had not came across the E-lops, its just been too hard, so then maybe thats fate that they came to me. I told my stepdaughter at the weekend about Big Oose (Kiah liked to think Oose was "her bunny" and it was the first "good time" to tell her as th situation is complex) and i told her that Oose sent Autumn and Bunty, Jane Doe and Phileas Fogg so she could pick a new best friend, Kiah picked Foggy to be her special bunny. And while i technically made it up that Oose sent them, i actually do think it is true in some way. I think if i gave up and shut my doors, i would be missing my calling in some way .
I believe i am good with bunnies, and i think giving up would be the wrong thing to do, but i guess we all feel like failures at one time or another . I needed something to make me carry on, and i got it...

(i dont want everyone to jump on board and tell me i am great or anything, im just thinking outloud i guess, sharing the thought for anyone else who has or will at some point feel like giving up)

Maysie, Summer was something else wasnt she, she just didnt have a clue so brave and loving. I really enjoyed your visit and i am so glad the bunnies left such a big paw print on your heart too .

They live forever in my heart, and the heart of those who met and loved them .

I'm so sorry for all of your losses I can't imagine how difficult it must be for you to lose so many in such a short space of time.

You're not asking for it, but I will say it, you shouldn't give up, it's not your fault that this has happened and like you say by giving up you'd also be giving up your calling, and think of all the buns you have and are going to make very happy I'm so pleased the gorgeous lops have come in to your life and helped you carry on

Sharon, I'm so sorry
I know for a fact that they all had such a wonderful life with you and there is absolutely nothing you've done wrong - things just fall all at the same time

Binky free you lovely lot, go cause mischief together. xx
