Last Tuesday i had to make the awful decision to have my foster bunny Bobby put to sleep . The third bun i had seen go to the bridge in 10 days .
Bobby came to me just over a week before when his previous foster mum was going on holiday. She had been concerned he was quiet and had a lump on his ear. The minute i saw him and felt the lump i knew in my gut it was an abscess . I got him checked by the vet, and my fears were confirmed . Having been through every treatment possible with Flynn (my beloved bridge bunny) i knew it looked grim, but i said to the rescue i would keep Bobby until he became miserable, my intention to add him to my group to cheer him up in his final weeks.
However, a week after diagnosis, and it became very apparent Bobby was in pain a lot of the time despite his metacam and he was depressed. His only pleasure in life metacam and cuddles, but how did the wee soul spend the other 23 hours a day? My heart still breaking from losing Riley and Mojo, i had to let Bobby go
Bobby was a REW lop, really gorgeous wee guy, i have loads of photo's on my camera which i will upload later
He now rests in the flower bed beside Riley and Mojo.
Bobby, you came to me as a foster, but as i told you in the car before we went into the vet, you left as one of my own, you had a "real mum" and you were very much loved
