My sweet little Georgia Bun has gone to The Bridge :sad:
She was with us nearly 4 years, which is a lot longer than anyone thought we would have her, but it still wasn't long enough. In fact she nearly didn't make it here at all, as she was on her way to be euthanised at the Shelter, when Pet_Bunny stepped in and asked them to wait. He phoned me and we brought her home as a friend for Shadow.
Georgia had health problems. She was very overweight when we got her, and had a lump in her stomach, which we thought would cause problems but the only thing it did was to give her a poopy butt. Most days she had to be cleaned, but she accepted it and let us do it.
Georgia was the most quiet, submissive bunny ever. All she wanted from life was nose rubs, treats, and to be loved. And she loved going into the garden - she had her favourite spot under the trees and would sit and watch the birds. Sometimes she blended in so well with the colours, we couldn't see her - something she used to her advantage when we wanted her to come in!
She and Shadow were snuggle buns from the start, and when he went to the Bridge 7 months ago, she became friends with Jester and Bonnie, though I could tell she really missed her partner. She started sleeping under my bed at night, and I really miss hearing her munching on hay, or her little snuffly grunts.
Over the past months, Georgia slowed down a lot - she was coming up to 10 years old. She had a little arthritis, but she could still run around with the others. Things happened quickly. One night she couldn't settle and seemed to be losing the use of her back leg. She would circle, flop, circle and flop again. The next day, she had difficulty seeing, so we took her straight to the vet. An exam showed her sight had gone, and they thought that, because her legs had gone too, that it was neurological. She was stressed, and, because she couldn't see, she was panicky. I couldn't let her suffer like that - I owed her too much. So, we made the hard decision to say 'Goodbye'.
We miss you Georgia - even more than I thought we would. I miss when I go to bed having you dart out from under the bed to see what treats I had for you. I miss your cuddles, and even miss your poopy butt. I hope you and Shadow are racing around at The Bridge together, and that you find a nice spot under a tree. You were such a good girl, and I hope your days with us were happy.
God Bless, my little Cutie Agoutie. We love you!
Hello there!
