R.I.P snowy

[Bob]

Today I lost my first rabbit snowy, she was a mini lop with a white coat ( as the name snowy) She was the friendliest rabbit I ever owned. She passed away sitting on my knees after 9 years of having her. She was born when I was 5 after we bought 2 “sisters” which actual brother and sister ( we passed on the rest of the rabbits ) She was one of the best mistakes ever. The reason I kept snowy was because she was bullied by the rest of the rabbits. Most night she would come up on to my bed with me and she would flop over on her side. I miss her so much now.

I am so sorry. Our first rabbits ever also seem to be the best rabbits ever don’t they? I am sorry for your loss. It is both sad but very precious that she passed away on your knees with you holding her. She passed in the presence and comfort and touch of her best friend and companion. The one that adopted her, saved her, and kept her for a long 9 years. And as I’ve learned that is a long time. Not many rabbits get to live that long. Thank you for taking such good care of her. Her coming up on your bed and flopping shows how special your bond was. You will continue to miss her dearly, no doubt. I’m sure you know it will take time but in time it gets better. In my personal grieving I found that trying to have a perspective of gratefulness for the time we shared with our rabbit helped me to not be so distraught and be less angry. Because I was angry. Angry that she got sick and died and I couldn’t do anything to help her. It wasn’t fair. And I was still a basket case to a large degree. There is no denying that. But having a gratefulness for getting to experience the binky’s, the flops, the nose bumps, the bunny kisses, and all the other things that go with having a bunny…that special companionship, that helped me. Most people will be born and die and never get to experience it. I am glad we did and you did. Thank you again for saving and giving Snowy a long and happy life. Feel free to share more here if you like. Upload some pictures of Snowy. Tell us some stories about her. Whatever you like that may help. There a many many here who have gone through the same thing. My heart goes out to you.

So sorry to hear of the passing of Snowy. You had an amazing 9 years with her and were there for her at the end which would have meant a lot to her.
