Help Sugarplum ill this morrning: she's gone

By the time I got to the vets Sugarplum had her nose in the air struggling for breath again, I think the journey stressed her out. The vet took one look at her and asked if she could PTS, I knew she would that's why i asked about the prognosis this morning. She had to be hand fed and watered and was completely immobile, it is shocking how quickly she deteriorated from being a normally active rabbit just a few months ago. At least we spent some time together in the garden this morning and I was able to say goodbye properly. She went very quickly, she was ready. My thoughts are with Splodge who has sadly just lost his third wife and is alone again :cry:

So sorry again, I'm sure you did everything you could for her and she knew how much she was loved :(
 
I'm so sorry! I about cried reading that. I'm glad you did get to say goodbye and spend time with her, though.

I'm going to go cuddle Alfie now, he's been sick as well. >.<

So sorry - There are far too many bunnies passing on here at the mo - Hopefully they are all having fun at the bridge.

Give Splodge a nose rub from me :(
