August 24th: Psychiatrist diagnosed me with Type II Bipolar Disorder.
August 25th: Psychiatrist upped my Prozac dosage to 60mg in an attempt to override the interference, and consequently, unchecked aggression, that the birth-control was causing.
October 23rd: Maayatan's second birthday.

Mr Reita-chan's hoomin slave, tweakedoutbunnie, got into an... altercation with her mother, and Reita has been kicked out.

Naturally, I couldn't allow my nephew to end up in a shelter, so I've taken him in until a permanent home can be found. I would love to keep him, but my step-mom's crazy.

She doesn't look impressed, but Maaya's secretly happy to see her boyfriend.

Tabi doesn't appreciate the intrusion, and bit me for my trouble =_=

Those are great pictures, such beautiful bunny's.

Great pictures! Hehehe she certainly does seem interested in him. I hope this year will be better for you!

Just a quick picture update of the kids. My step-mom is trying to kick the rabbits out. Much drama ensued, and apparently we're at a grudging stalemate where I can keep them, but they have to be outside. This royally p*sses me off, but I'm trying to make the best of it, and hopefully my uncle will help me build a double hutch for them =_=

She died right in front of my eyes.


It's so hard to breath right now.

---June 9th---

My parents decided last Saturday that I can no longer keep my rabbits.

The short version is that my priorities are not in order because I focus too much on the rabbits, and I'm not emotionally stable enough to have pets. That's what I've been told.

I've tried talking, pleading, bargaining, and full out crying. I'm on the verge of being kicked out myself, so I know pleading for the rabbits is pointless now.

I don't want any money for them. I just want more than anything for someone to love them as much as I do.


In an effort to not have an emotional breakdown, I've been applying for jobs and I've started taking my medication again.

I don't want to be sad anymore.

And I want to get out of here.

---June 20th---

On Saturday, my rabbits are going to go live at the Harvest Home Animal Sanctuary in Stockton, CA.

I'm trying really, really hard not to cry.

With the house move coming up in only a few weeks, it was the only real option left.

The lady I spoke to, Karen, was very reassuring.

"We are a House Rabbit Society Chapter also and we screen our adopters very carefully. We adopt out to indoor homes only and we do a lot of bondings so rabbits have companionship."

I feel relieved that I know they'll be well looked after and that their new owners will have to pass a screening process.



But it still doesn't make it easier that my babies are been taken away.

---June 25th---

I spent the last few hours with my girls this morning.

The shelter turned out to be a really nice place.

There were ducks, chicken, turkeys, and bunnies all over the place. A couple goats too.

I feel bad for the lady running the place because she had to deal with me <i>and</i> Ashley crying as I was signing the surrender papers.

She said I'm welcome to come down and visit on Saturdays.

When I left, Maaya was stretched out and nomming some hay, and Tabi was checking out a boy bunny named Wally.

The shelter has a really extensive adoption process, so I feel better knowing they'll make sure my girls go to a good home.



When I got home I alternated between sleeping and crying for a few hours. Now I'm just drained.

I forgot to take Bob (Tabi's stuffed bunny toy) to the shelter, so now he's on my bed.

I'm saving the emotional mess of breaking down their cages for tomorrow.

 

[itoshiixhito]

I'm so miserable and lonely without my girls...

 

[Deliciosa]

This breaks my heart. I'm so, so sorry your bunnies are gone. Is there any way for you to volunteer at the shelter so maybe you could see them? Or would that be too sad (I'd understand if it would be)?

Rest assured though that they are in a kind place with lots of care. I hope things will get easier for you soon.
