Ive been reading some of the posts here and i feel the same how i feel i couldve done better for my rabbit, timmy...he unfortunatly passed away in august last year at only 7 years old due to dental issues, he went down hill very fast within two days so whisked him off to the vets on the friday and unfortunatly passed away on the sunday right infront of us all - its something i'm sure ill never forget.. We had him cremated shortly after. Uploaded a snap of him..
i have a poem here for these types of things but it always gets me upset darnit! nonetheless a lovely poem so i thought id share..
If it should be that I grow frail and weak
And pain does keep me from my sleep,
Then will you do what must be done
For this - the last battle - can't be won.
You will be sad I understand
But don't let grief then stay your hand.
For on this day, more than the rest
Your love and friendship must stand the test.
We have had so many happy years,
You wouldn't want me to suffer so.
When the time comes, please, let me go.
Take me to where my needs they'll tend,
Only, stay with me till the end.
And hold me firm and speak to me
Until my eyes no longer see.
I know in time you will agree
It is a kindness you do to me.
Although my tail its last has waved,
From pain and suffering I have been saved.
Don't grieve that it must now be you
Who has to decide this thing to do.
We've been so close - we two - these years,
Don't let your heart hold any tears.
RIP to all those who you have lost
