Yesterday we lost our wonderful Monty. He had a blockage of foreign matter in his gut and he passed away whilst the vet was trying to put him on a drip. She did all she could to bring him back including mouth to mouth but he was just too weak.
Monty was only with us for 6 months. When Harvey died, our 9 year old Daisy started to go downhill and seemed to be missing the company. We decided she needed someone to spend the rest of her twilight years with and found 4 year old Monty at the RSPCA. It was instant with him, we fell in love with his little face and his character. When he was first introduced to Daisy he was smitten too! After a short settling in period they became inseparable and she taught him to clean her eyes and groom her whenever she commanded! Monty soon came to realise she would never return the favour but he didn't seem to mind! Daisy has been ill recently as she was diagnosed with arthritis and spondylosis but Monty watched over her the whole time and never left her side. Spending time with Monty has given her a new lease of life and a playful glint in her eye that she lost after Harvey died.
We've never owned a rabbit quite like Monty. He ticked all the right boxes and was the perfect rabbit. He was cute, cheeky, affectionate, he ate hay (a first in our house!), he hummed at everything, he binkied and played with his toys - the same toys that all our other rabbits have ignored!
We feel totally robbed. We were looking forward to spending many more years with him, not months but we feel very lucky that we knew him at all. Such a special boy, such a terrible shame.
