You guys rock!
Thanks for the thought of the sunglasses, Pamela227. If they madethem, Tucks would have them. Not sure how they'd stay on his head, butit would look really funny.
HB104, you know that you totally melted me when you said you've kept apicture of Tucker-Bucker and have sent it to friends. I don't know of ahigher compliment one could get along with the others that came in thispost. Everyone's so unbelieveable on this forum. I showed my niece thecomments you all posted about Tucker and her eyes sparkled and shesaid, "Tucker's a Big Hit!!" Made her feel great, especially afterlosing the wild rabbit she tried so hard to rescue.
She really wanted to take me to the site where she found the wildrabbit, so we made a special trip over there. Poor rabbit, and PoorMichaela and Liam. Tears had fallen last night from her. She's sosensitive and loves animals so much. It was hard for her to accept thatthe rabbit died. How we all want to save every rabbit in the world! Itstarts at a young age when you've got a special love of animals. TakingTucker to the lake and hanging out with him helped.
Not to mention,Buck and his wife gave me a fondue pot and plates and utensils andtaught me how to fondue. We had a sirloin steak, hashbrowns, and saladfondue dinner on the porch last night. Then did a Beauty Night, yaknow: hair, nails, facial. It was a lot of fun, but she kept thinkingabout that little bunny. She was singing Hush Little Baby to it, andthe song was stuck in her mind which was a sad thought for herobviously. I just kept telling her that at least the little one wasloved before he passed over the rainbow bridge and that he diedcomfortable and not alone. It just breaks your heart when a child cries.
Thanks Bluebird! I purchased the box from a small pet supply store.I've also seen them in places like Petco, and they're online for peoplewho don't have the benefit of having a pet supply store right aroundthe corner. He loves that box. It was the best thing I had ever gottenfor him I think because he can Take Five and escape the world when hewants to. He has an amazing set-up for a cage that I'm going to tellyou folks about when I get my act together with pictures, but thathideaway box fit inside his old cage and he'd use it alot. It's in theliving room now. He'd use it particularly when he'd get spooked bysomething or wanted to go to sleep. I think it was around $20, but itwas worth every penny of it. He'll chew on it as well, so it serves acouple of needs for my little mon.
Thanks again for your comments about Tucker. You folks really 'get' his personality. It's very cool.
