I'm ok, Bunslave.
I was a bit of a wreck on Tuesday. Now, I keep thinking I ought to 'Go and feed the rabbits'. I dreamt the other night that I was being followed around by a gang of black rabbits with sores by their eyes. None of mine were black, Cecile was a lovely dark grey, but at the end, they all had eye issues. I haven't taken down their compounds yet. I'll have to do that soon.
I went to the usual vet, and was so grateful that they were so understanding and kind - and the vet remarked on how they'd never been ill, really, never needed ongoing treatment, just had healthy lives and grown old. And truly, the buns were ready, they weren't upset or scared of being there, they were fine, they snuggled down and went to sleep. Charlie came back for some more hay, which made me smile. I'm fine. I tell myself they didn't suffer, they were all together. I'm so glad I didn't bring Cecile back alone, to a lonely life wondering where everybun had gone.
Thanks for asking. Seems I had a lot to say.
eta: and thanks again! that gave me the boost I needed to go and look at the rabbit area. the compounds are down now but there's a lot of cleaning left to do. biggest shock/most heartwarming... when matthew died I gave tabby a furry, fluffy baby fleece to snuggle up to. I found it in her hide, huddled into bunny shape, clean and cared for. I knew she snuggled up in there but I didn't know she actually used it. at first glance it looked like Charlie Rabbit, white and fluffy, complete with tail.:shock:
