Sorry for your loss as well, LuvOurStewart. Our little girl passed at 7 years of age too. Just a couple months shy of 8. That is a pretty good age for rabbits from what I understand. Regardless it is too short, always. Especially compared to ours. “Heartbroken and crushed”, I understand. It is normal, has to be, that we blame ourselves for any and everything that goes wrong, especially in these circumstances, if we feel we didn’t do the right thing at the right time all the time. But with the multitude of decisions, distractions, schedules, issues, and all the other things we deal with on a daily basis that are a part of life…perfection in any area is impossible. Stewie (and I just love that name) knew he was loved. No doubt about it. I hope over time, sooner than later, you find yourselves able to forgive or move past that blame. I remember when the loss of our little girl, Icey, was fresh, life was turned upside down. Sleeping, eating, functioning, everything all messed up. It was a sort of living hell. Kind of felt like I was dying. You are in my thoughts….my heart goes out to you.
