Emmy Lou

Hugo's There

Wise Old Thumper
Emmy-Lou joined us in March as a companion to Bertie after we lost Meredith.

She was a gorgeous bunny who loved a cuddle. Bertie was so happy the first time he saw her he couldn't stop binkying, poor Emmy was terrified :lol:

They settled down together immediately and started to enjoy married life :love:

It became apparent early on that Emmy wasn't a well bunny, even after a much needed dental she still struggled to put on weight. We had to reinforce the food shed door because she would break into it so many times a day to steal food. Despite having 3 or 4 meals a day she was still not gaining the weight we wanted her too. After a bad bout of stasis we feared her cancer had spread and she was put on daily pain relief. It worked at first and she started to improve but in the last couple of weeks it became clear that she was struggling. On Thursday Emmy was in a great deal of pain and although she tried to continuing fighting we knew she needed to go to the bridge soon.

Today x-rays confirmed the cancer had spread to her stomach and lungs, so we let her pass peacefully to the bridge :(

We are so grateful to Kris who let us give Emmy a home in her final months. She was another wonderful Rainbow Rabbit who we are proud to have known. bertie will be lost with out her :(

Binky Free at the Bridge Emmy, you are such a special girl. xxxxx

You gave her a lovely home - am so sad to see you've lost both her and Nessa so close together xx

But you've given them both a brilliant retirement.

Goodbye pretty Emmy Lou.

Sending special scritches to Bertie x :(
 
I'm so sorry Liz for your loss. Emmy Lou was a lucky bunny to live with you and Bertie and your extended bunny family. How is Bertie?

Jane xx

PS: Bertie does look like Mopsy.
