I know its been ages since i've been on here, but i thought you might want to know.
This morning we lost of beautiful moody mare, Miffy.
At only 1 year and three months old.
We knew she wasn't well yesterday evening, she just sat there with her ears flat on her head. I brought her in to check her over, but she seemed fine apart from her lack of life. At first we thought she was just hot, so we gave her a drink as we thought she might not have gone in the hutch to have one. She had a few laps of a dish, but no more. I took her inside and she sat on my bed with me, she ate a small piece of broccolli but wasn't interested in the carrot. She seemed slightly restless as she wouldn't lie down like she usually would. I put her back on the grass and she just sat there, where as normally she would jump off and race around the garden. And she doesn't usually let you go near her when she's out, she'll just run off. But she let you stroke her and pick her up without a struggle.
My mum went down late at night and gave her a cuddle, Binky was lying next to her. By what my mum told me, I'm sure those moments were ever so close to being her last.
I went down this morning, just before 7, and she was lay at the end of the hutch with her head behind one of the litter trays. I thought she was still alive as her eyes were half open. But i couldn't see her breathing. I reached to touch her and she was quite hard and cold, but not like the guinea pigs had been. She obviously hadn't been gone for very long.
We've moved her into a box and are taking her to the vets for a PM today.
R.I.P our beautiful moody mare, you'll be missed deeply.
Your mummy Sophie misses you lots!
And so do your aunties, Amy and Helen.
Binky misses you tons and he hopes you are at peace in bunny heaven.
Goodbye Miffy, we love you.
