I lost my little boy bun 3 weeks ago, he was 10 years old and I seem to have spent the last several years worrying about him - is he happy, did I give him his medicine, will someone be home in time to give him his next lots of medicine, has his jaw abcess grown again, should I take him to the vet, has he eaten enough, should I get him a lower sided litter tray, is Lavender ok cos we leave her out a bit and it goes on and on. I was devestated when I had to say goodbye to him, and then had this horrendous empty feeling and didn't really know what to do with myself. Obviously I then threw myself into making sure Lavender was ok, and probably annoyed her by fussing over her too much.
Now Lavender has a friend, omg, how stressful is bonding!!!!! They spent the first 4 days with the lovely lady from the rescue centre, and then came home last night. They like each other but still keep having little tussles (mostly when he tries to mount her, and she's having none of it), so she has a few bald patches/grazes but two minutes later she flopped out (ie she's not scared) or flirting with him. They had a tussle in the night so I ended up sleeping in the living room with them! I'm SO tired! I've really got to go to work tomorrow but not sure I'm happy to leave them on their own.
Anyhow, I feel better for sharing! But, am I the only one? I don't worry about things in general - just the bunnies!! :shock:
