We said good-bye to our bunny Buddy this afternoon. We don't know why he stopped eating two weeks ago, but after several vet visits, many doses of medicines and force feedings that he hated, it was time to let him go. Knowing it was the right thing to do doesn't stop my heart from aching.

I'm really sorry, Lynne. Doing the right thing, following life's path, isn't always easy, painless, or without sadness. But it's what we all have to do…and you did the best you could. That's what caring and a loving heart are is all about.
Consider this an understanding hug from a friend. Again, I'm so sorry for your loss.
Lynne, I'm so sorry for your loss. Letting go is so hard but you've done the right thing. Hugs from me as well.
I know how close a person can get to rabbits. I raised Netherland Dwarf rabbits and they were like part of the family. I'm so sorry for your loss.
Oh I'm so sorry! I know only too well the pain you are going through right now. The mind tells you you are doing the right thing but it doesn't stop your heart from breaking. Take gentle care of yourself.
Lynne - I am so sorry to hear about Buddy - my heat aches for you! You did the right thing but I know it isn't easy.

Of course it is the right thing, but so so hard anyway. We love our fur kids so much, saying goodbye is hard.
Sorry, Lynne.

Oh, my heart aches for you as well. You are brave to think of his needs and let him go with dignity. He was a very handsome fellow.

Hi Sweet Linne,
Buddy was a lucky bunny. I know the heartache...
Big Hugs,
May
It's such a pleasure having our pets but it's also very painful when one of them dies. I'm sorry and hope you are feeling better soon!A big HUG goes out to you!
How lucky was Buddy to have had you as his keeper and friend for so long...remembering how you made his life special will help.. difficult as it is..we have always planted a scrub or perennial as a memorial to our furry children! Over the years we have gathered many perennials that have special places in our hearts..:)
Oh Lynne, I'm so sorry... I know you will miss Buddy. It is always so hard when one of our 'pets' dies.. They become such a part of us...
My sympathies.
Hugs,
Betsy
Sharing your sorrow, Lynne. Hugs to you, and keep the happy memories in your heart.
Lynne, I'm so sorry. Niblet and I are thinking of you and your family. He especially sends many nosebumps your way, remembering how your card and gift cheered him when he wasn't doing so well.
I'm sorry. Hugs to you.
Lynne,

I remember when we had to let our bunnies go...so sad.
Cute bunny.

Oh boy. It is hard to let go. Take care and remember the good times you all had together.
It's so hard to see them suffer and we miss them so much. What a sweet Buddy!
Lynne, if I could hug your aching heart I would. You were good and brave to let him go. I hope he hops about in your memory on happy bunny trails.
What a cute bunny. Love the little bird in your June 12 posting. All of the birds are beautiful and your photos are great.
Oh Lynne...
So sorry, Lynne, the lost of a pet hurts.

Blessings and hugs to all.
