We lost Java Bean

[yannikin]

Hi everyone,

We lost Java Bean yesterday. She broke her spine when she lost her footing on the coffee table and fell down. We took her to the vet and had her X-rayed - her spike break was very bad. We gave her pain medication and took her home so that we could think about what to do. Even broken, she was fiesty as hell - when I fed her medication, she even stomped with her front paws!

After seeing her drag herself around to her hiding place and being unable to get into her cage, we knew that she'd be happier in bunny heaven. We decided to put her to sleep. She fought until the end - the vet had to give her the same amount for a golden retriever to put her to sleep.

We then wrapped her in her mom's victoria secret PJ's that she really loved to lick and buried her under an apple tree.

Love your bunnies!

Thank you. I added a couple of pictures. She had a beautiful satin coat that we're gonna miss a lot!

We are sorry to hear about your loss, but it sounds like you did the right thing.
How old was she?
Dilly just got an extra banana chip and she said it was for Java Bean.

We adopted her from a rabbit rescue in Northern San Francisco county and they estimate that she was probably about 3 this year.

I'm so sorry about Java Bean. Such a sweetie. We had a bunny end up with hind leg paralysis who had to be put down and it was so difficult.

Binky Free lil' Miss, see you at the Bridge :rainbow:
