Sweet dreams Rudey

That brought more than a few tears to my eyes. Such an incredible and gentle bunny, with such an expressive face. His character really shone through in the video. Such a treasured and special memory of a remarkable and unique rabbit who I certainly will never forget. xx

Thanks Craig. He was funny with those treats, he'd be in a lifeless pool then as soon as he got a whiff of those he'd become all animated
 
Black bunnies are the best [emoji7]

Yea Fleur was basically not a rabbit at all.. She was more like a demanding puppy who wanted to be with you all the time [emoji38] here's a few of her :)

Sometimes the pictures of Rudey remind me of faces she used to pull, I can't really explain it but it's a certain look [emoji38]

How beautiful was Fleur - like a rexy Rudey:love:

Thanks Jj
 
Lovely video. I found photos and videos of Spenser a great comfort when I lost him, and they still make me smile. xx

yeah I'm so glad I took lots (& lots) of photos him. I'm going to pick out my favourite & get it framed one day xx
 
That video is really precious. It's really comforting to watch that back and see what a spark he had at that stage. :love:
 
Such a beautiful video. He was a very very special bunny and you cared for him amazingly, cleaning up after his many accidents a day and getting up in the middle of the night, every night to feed him.
Graciee- Fleur was very special too x
 
I'm genuinely touched by how lovely some of you lot are - thank you.

Its weird isn't it - i'm coping better (still sob a few times a day) but then I feel guilty about feeling a bit better. It isn't the same without him. 16 months was not long enough, he died a few months short of his 6th birthday

Glad you're doing a bit better, and that guilt is totally normal, I don't think any of us haven't felt it, that 'but SHOULD I feel better?' grasping sort of feeling.

16m isn't very long at all, but I'm glad you all found each other :)

Yeah, I'm with you fully there. 4 months down the line from Henry and I'm still weepy. It doesn't leave you. And in some ways it shouldn't. It's your way of treasuring and respecting Rudey and your way of connectuing with him. Everyone moves on at different paces - there is no hard and fast rule on that. If you feel weepy, that's ok, perfectly ok. It shows how much you care and how much he meant and nothing can replace that but it also shows what a dedicated, kind, and unselfish person you are. xx
