My vet called last night after she did bloodwork on him and his BUN/Creatin levels were extremely high. She said basically the fluids have been keeping him going.
I’m going to help him cross the Bridge today…please light a candle for him.
OH, Sarita, I’m so sorry. You’re doing the loving thing for Jingles.
{{{{{{{{{Swift and gentle passage over the Rainbow Bridge, Jingles.}}}}}}}}}}}
Hugs for you, Sarita. 
Sarita, I’m sorry to hear of this. You’ve a heart of gold!
Jingles, go lightly, peacefully and be free!
I haven’t been here in awhile so I am so sorry to hear about Jingles. I’m so glad you are there for him and make such a kind decision. Take care.
I know your heart is breaking. Be strong as you face this last act of love. Our thoughts are with you.
I am so sorry you have to go through this but it is the right thing to do for Jingles. Binky free Jingles!
Sarita, I am so sorry. My thoughts are with you. You are putting your bunnies needs first before yours, a bunny could not ask for anything more.

oH nooo. That is such a painful decision. I am sure Jingles will appreciate moving over to the bunny bridge. HE must be feeling terrible. I know you have to be hurting too. May you have the peace to get through this and Jingles too. Jingles will be at peace. Thats what is important. No matter how much it hurts you , you know you are doing the right thing. Putting your buns welfare first. He needs that.
Making that decision for Laith hurt. It was so hard. I understand how hard it is to see them go. I am sending you peace and strength vibes.
Aw. <333333
aww I am so sorry, may Jingles binky free……hugs for you![]()
Sarita how are you holding up? I know people who dont’ have pets think it was only a …. But I know how painful it can be to lose them so do others here on bb. Unfortunately it is a part of life moving onto the meadows and gardens.
Let us hear from you Do you have other pets?
i’m still thinking of you…
Sarita,
I am so sorry for this awful decision you have been asked to make, only God knows why he chooses to take our little loved ones so soon, perhaps he too loves them so and wishes for their company as much as we do. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Be strong, know that you made the right choice for Jingles and that he is now binkying free at the rainbow bridge.

I am so sorry to hear about Jingles Sarita. It’s so nice that he has you to help him cross the rainbow bridge.
I will light a candle.
Thank everyone for your support. It was very difficult. Even though you know you did the right thing, it’s still hard. We are lucky that we can do this for our beloved pets, so I am grateful for that.
The hard thing is that he was a large rabbit and while I couldn’t see his weight loss I did begin to feel his bones. Also he seemed okay to me despite the fact he wasn’t eating but the vet assured me he was a very sick rabbit and she would never had suggested this unless she felt he had a chance.
{{ SARITA }}
I’m so sorry for your loss. THank you for having the strength to do what he needed.
My heartfelt condolences to you, Sarita.
I’m so sorry to hear this Sarita.
Binky free Jingles.
I’ll light a candle for him.

On no, how very sad. I hope it is O.K. that I wanted to light another candle.

I also lit a candle. (((((((((((((Sarita))))))))))) Thinking of you at this sad time.

I am so sorry for your loss Sarita. I know your love helped comfort him as he traveled to the rainbow bridge. He is at peace now.
HUGS!!
Sarita: You have always been such a wise and wonderful bunny mama, not just for yours, but for all of ours. I agree that we should take comfort in being able to make this decision for our pets and give them an option for a peaceful passing. Love and bunny licks from Leo & Jessica. Continue to be strong, comfortably/appropriately strong.
Renal disease is difficult. You reach a point where all you can do is fluids, all the time. My Wolfgang (cat) was diagnosed w/ early kidney disease. We are treating it holistically w/ mostly supplements & dietary changes. But the thought that one day he will need regular fluids always crosses my mind. It seems like it just creeps up on you.
Binky Free Jingles. I just lost my bun, and it’s a terribly sad process – but we are blessed to be loved by such wonderful creatures. Be strong in knowing that you are doing the right thing for Jingles, he knows and loves you for it!
I’m so sorry to hear about Jingles, I know that it was definitely the best thing for him, I hope that you are doing OK. I will say a prayer for both you and Jingles, I know that he is up in heaven with my little bunny Teeny Baby that passed away and they are probably having lots of fun together!
Oh Sarita, I am so sorry I am only coming to this post now, I had no idea. You are in my thoughts and prayers. (((((((((((((((((Sarita & Jingles)))))))))))))))) God Bless you both!
Sarita how are you doing? *HUGS*
I haven’t been on in a while, but I saw this thread and had to post..
I’m so sorry for your loss, Sarita.
My thoughts and prayers are with you….and with Jingles. But Jingles is with Binkles now…perhaps they will go nibble on a carrot together next to a cool stream today.
Spacehopper sent me an email, she’s not on BB lately as her computer at home is broken, but she sends *hugs* to you Sarita and calm feelings.
Sarita — so sorry to hear of your loss…..hope you are holding up okay……Jingles is in Bunny Heaven now…..peace to you…..
