I'm Casper

[StlCardinals]

Hello All

I would like to introduce myself. My name isCasper, I’m a Netherland dwarf. I have a mommy and daddy, whotake really good care ofme.I was born on April 12, 1997 inEvansville, IN. I lived my first weeks of life at a placecalled Harp’s. I didn’t really care for that place too much,the dogs, cats, and the birds oh my, the birds made so much noise, tillthis day I don’t care for birds. One day in June of 1997, mydaddy wanted to buy my mommy 2 rabbits for her birthday, mommy wasn’tsure she wanted any more rabbits. She had lost a rabbit namedThumper, she only lived two years, and when she died it made my mommysad. There, I was a wee bunny, I was showing off, I ran allaround the enclosure, visited with all the other rabbits.Mommy picked my brother and me to take home with her. She thought I wasespecially friendly that was why she picked me, and named me Casper thefriendly ghost, I mean rabbit. It was a long ride home, I didreally well, but it made my brothers tummy upset. Mommy knewmy brother was sick, and made a mad dash to the vet, she even gotpulled over by for speeding, and the cop let her go when he saw mybrother in the seat next to her. The vet wasn’t very much help. When mybrother got home, I tried to get him to eat, I put food into my mouthand put it to his mouth, but he was too weak. My brotherdidn’t make it, and I was sad, so was mommy and daddy. Mommy called thepet store, and told them what happened, they said, if we brought hisbody in they would refund the money. Mommy got upset about that, shewasn’t concerned about the money, and would never purchase anythingfrom that place again. So they took my brother, and buriedhim next to Thumper. I still needed a friend, so the searchwas on…….

Casper story continues

Mommy and Daddy searched the newspapers for anyone who had a netherlanddwarf, female and preferably black (because my brother was black). Inthe mean time, I was well taken care of. I was a tiny little guy, I washappy too, I did binkies all over the house, but, I was lonely whenmommy and daddy went to work. One time I played a trick on mommy, whenthey let me out of my cage, they close the door to the rooms that I’mnot allowed in, but I found my way in, remember I was a tiny littleguy, so I slid right underneath the door. I could hear mommy-callingCasper, Casper, she was so surprise to find me in that room and realizehow I got in there. I can’t do that anymore, now I just scratch on thedoors when I want in, they finally get tired of hearing me and justopen the doors for me.

It had been about 3 weeks and mommy found an ad in the Sunday paper.For sale netherland dwarfs, mommy called about the ad. Just what wewere looking for 5 black netherland dwarfs, all females. She drove overan hour to a place called Booneville, IN. I was wondering how mommy wasgoing to pick my new friend, possible my bun wife, there were five ofthem all black. Mommy arrived home a few hours later, with theprettiest little girl. I heard mommy tell daddy that she didn’t haveany problem choosing her, she knew right away she wanted the littlegirl with the chubby cheeks and big brown eyes. For me it was love atfirst sight. I thought I had it made, but within minutes, it was allover, I was separated from my girl. It was kind of my fault, I was justa young buck and my emotions got the best of me. My mommy and daddydidn’t know that I matured early, and they didn’t want any babyrabbits, so until I could go to the doctor, we could only have verysupervised visits. It took a few days before she got a name. One thingabout that girl she was a kisser, always giving kisses. Mommy got tosee her parent, her daddy was chocolate and her mommy was black, and soshe got her name Hershey Kisser……the love of my life, my best friend.:inlove:

Casper & Hershey

I had a feeling that it wasn’t going to be a good day. Mommy didn’tleave for work at her usual time, but she was up and dressed. Somethingwas up, and then she got a carrier out. She put me in the carrier andthen to the car. She took me to the vet, and left me, I was thinking Ican’t believe she left me here, it smells like dog, and I didn’t likeit one bit. The next thing I know, I wake up, feeling really groggy andsomething is odd I have stitches. I was really mad, still it was mymommy who left me here. Then my hero, my daddy came to rescue me. Thatis why I am a daddies boy, I love my mommy but she brushes me, clips mynails, she has to be the bad guy, my daddy just give me nose rubs andslips me treats. Really I do love my mommy, she just does what is bestfor me.

It was a few weeks later, Hershey moved in with me. It was wonderful,we groomed each other, and cuddled a lot. When we were out and about,we were never far from one another. I loved to chase Hershey around theliving room. That was the best, I don’t think Hershey cared for it toomuch….she is such a girl. She would try to hide from me.

One time in the winter, mommy took us outside after a big snow, it washigher then I was, but I went out into that white stuff, and I justdipped my head in the snow, mommy and daddy laughed and laughed, I hadsnow all over my head. What was Hershey doing hiding underneath thecar, she wanted no part in this activity, like I said….she is such agirl. My girl, the sweetest little thing.

When Hershey was around 3 years old, she got a special trip to the vettoo, mommy said, it was best for her, she didn’t want her to getcancer. She had to stay over night, it was weird, and it was the1[suP]st[/suP] time in 3 years my Hershey wasn’t in the cage with me.Mommy was worried the whole time. She was there first thing in themorning, to pick her up. Hershey wasn’t very happy when she got home,and she was embarrassed her tummy was shaved. I didn’t care I gave herkisses, and helped get her all cleaned up.

Next Chapter: Hershey and Head tilt

Everything was wonderful for the next 6 years, until one night in Marchof 2003. I was in the cage, and Hershey started acting funny, I gotreally scared, Hershey head was on sideways and she kept going incircles. When daddy came to let us out in the morning, daddy yelled formommy, something is wrong with Hershey, and when mommy saw her shestarted crying. Mommy and daddy didn’t go to work that day, they tookHershey to the vet first thing that morning. They were trying to get meto eat but I was depressed and didn’t want anything, I just lied thereand stared into space, something was very wrong with my little girl. Ididn’t know if Hershey was ever coming back, mommy and daddy didn’teither. A few hours later they were back, and had Hershey with them.They didn’t put Hershey back in our cage, they made a new cage withlots of blankies. I had a feeling that she was going to be okay. Then Ifinally ate something. It took about a week and Hershey was back tonormal, I was so happy. Hershey spent the 1[suP]st[/suP] night in acage by herself, but, she was constantly looking for me, so mommythought it would be best to be put back in with me, and that was thebest thing, I helped Hershey get better, I was her pillow, I was hergroomer. Mommy did a lot too, giving her meds, and making sure she waseating and drinking. I wasn’t long, and I was chasing Hershey aroundthe living room once again.
