What a lucky rabbit to be offered a reprieve. Well done Parsnipbun althought so sorry you lost your Pansy.
As others have said it seems meant to be. Safe journey collecting her xxx
 
I honestly believe that a loving owner knows better than anyone else when the time has come to take steps to stop suffering. You're very brave to have posted this thread and to do what is in her best interest to stop her suffering. You clearly love her lots and I'm so glad she's getting a second chance. Keep us all posted! :love:
 
So sorry to hear about Pansy Binky free sweetheart :cry: but also lucky Lucy for being offered a wonderful home :love:
 
It's a good thing I don't have to speak right now - all abit choked up. Such flippin' wonderful people you all are! Not sure I could offer a bunny a home after having just lost one - but this is a lesson to me that I could and would if I could :)?).

I believe that it's one of the best things us humans can offer an animal - a peaceful and painless passing when the end of the road has come - but this road has suddenly been extended on! Just amazing!
 
hi

thanks all for your lovely comments. Lucy is doing well the vets tell me. I am so grateful for the lovely offer as letting her go wouldhhave been so difficult.

I will admit i did feel like I had failed her but Twig has said that Lucy will have access to some rabbit specialists and that her natural diet may help her teeth without the need for such frequent surgery. Now I realise that this is the best possible thing for Lucy.

All my buns have everything they need , massive hutches , food hay and veg , willow toys and free range time... but one thing they dont get enough of is my time, and this is exactly what Lucy needs to keep well ... for someone to take the time to watch her behaviour at all times for any sign of reduction in eating. I didnt realise when I had a baby how little time my husband and I would have.

I dislocated my knee in October and was in a wheelchair for a couple of weels with my leg splinted , we all had a sick virus over xmas and in febuary my baby is seeing a specialist as she may have to have surgery on her skull because they believe her sutres have fused early.... all these are things that we dont expect to happen and things that I didnt account for or forsee when I took my bunnies on.


Lucy weighed 3.5 kg in august 2012 and now weighs 2.5kg but gained a winter coat so we could not see. It is clear that something (most likely her teeth) is causing her to suffer but one thing she is brilliant at is hiding when she is low. The two bunnies she lives with are big and boisterous and I think this spurs her on to hide any sign of weakness until its too late and she goes into stasis.

some of you may wonder what im goin on aboiut. I guess im just trying to explain how it wasnt a decision I took lightly and thank you for all those that understand this. I love all my bunnies and Im over the moon that Lucy is going to get the life she deserves.

thanks again , and to twig im eternally grateful
