I’m torn, I’m broken… Suddenly I understand why people post about something this private. Only one person I know can relate and feel my pain. And it hurts, it hurts so much. Bonsly was my first bunny together with his brother Hazel. He was the sweetest bunny I could ever imagine. He was super social and loved to visit me during his free roaming time and would lick my feet, hand or head. I placed a tiny mat in the kitchen where he would have more grip and every time im cooking, he would sit there and watch me. He was an amazing companion but he was also fragile. He had split teeth that would hurt him and cause an infection. This infection would reach his eye but thankfully there was a rabbit savvy vet and hour drive away who was specialized in tooth issues. Bonsly got treated and needed a lot of antibiotics. But sadly a year later the problems would return and we would have to visit the vet again and one year after that once again. He basically had a chronic infection in his tear duct, but seeing him battle it and still be in good spirits, made me happy and hopeful. Last Sunday I left for a vacation and my previous partner who also lived with me and my/our bunnies is taking care of them like she has many times before in the past. Monday late in the evening Bonsly looked weak and ill, the next day, before we could reach the vet, he drew his last breath in the early morning. He was doing so well before that and we’ve been through a lot. He was sooo so sweet gentle and social. How can this little fluff ball make me so emotional and feel dead inside. I’m going to need a lot of time to get over this. I know I will never forget him and will always love his memories of the things we shared.
