RIP Orion and Galaxy

[stargazerLily]

I haven't posted on here for a while, partially due to my hectic schedule, but maybe some of you remember me. I had three rabbits, Orion (my holland lop), Galaxy (my polish dwarf mix who was bonded to Orion) and Nebula (my flemish giant).

Tonight I got home after being gone at a cat show all day, and went down into the basement to take care of the rabbits. First thing I noticed was Orion, laying in the middle of the floor, unresponsive. I went over to touch him and he was dead. I started frantically calling for the other two rabbits, and only Nebula appeared. I kept calling for Galaxy and he didn't come so I walked around the rabbit pen and noticed a white foot sticking out from behind a bucket. Galaxy was laying dead behind the bucket, less than 3 feet from Orion.

Today is a very sad day because I lost my heart rabbit, and his buddy. Orion was only 2 years old and Galaxy was almost 6 years old. They are survived by their "little" brother Nebula, who will be a year only on Saturday.

Orion and Galaxy, I will miss you both!

Betsy

I'm sorry for your loss. Any idea what may have been the cause?

 

[Elf Mommy]

Betsy, I am incredibly sorry for your loss! How heartbreaking to lose two in one day! Give the "little brother" a lot of love. My thoughts are with you.

Oh my gosh, Betsy, I am devastated for you. I can't imagine how you're feeling after losing two of your babies at once. I'm so curious about what happened to them. I'll always remember your story of the basement flooding and your boys floating around in their litter box boats.

Binky free, Orion and Galaxy! You will be missed.

 

[Pet_Bunny]

I am sorry Betsy for your loss. I would be worried for Nebula if something affected the other two bunnies and if it might affect him.

 

[swanlake]

oh my gosh, i can only imagine what you feel. i hope you and nebula the best.

that seemed sudden--any clues as to what happened?

 

[Leaf]

I remember you and them - and how much I love their names.

I'm so sorry. :sad:

Binky Free little ones. :rainbow:

 

[BEAUKEZRA]

I'm so sorry :sad:

 

[naturestee]

Oh no! How horrible. I'm so sorry you lost them, they were gorgeous.:tears2:

Will you be getting necropsies done? With two dying like that, I'd be worried about Nebula. I really hope he'll be ok.

Binky free, Orion and Galaxy.:rainbow:

My heart has joined the thousand, for my friend stopped running today.

 

[tonyshuman]

I'm so sorry. What a traumatic loss. Like others on here, I'd reccomend trying to figure out what happened to keep Nebula safe. Binky free, Orion and Galaxy. :rainbow:

 

[stargazerLily]

I will be taking them into work with me today, to see if they can have a necropsy done, and if it is too late, to arrange for burial/cremation. Nebula will be coming in with me (if I can get him caught, he's a sneaky/fast one) at some point today for an exam to make sure he's doing ok.

 

[SOOOSKA]

OMG Betsy, I'm so very to hear this terrible news.

[mouse_chalk]

This is just terrible news, I'm so sorry. I can't imagine how you must be feeling. I too remember the story of them floating around in their litterboxes when your basement flooded, one of my favourite bunny stories still! What an awful shock for you. :sad:

I hope that little Nebula stays safe with you. You are in my thoughts :hug:

Binky free, Orion and Galaxy
