I had to say goodbye to my little girl today. Her name is Garlic, and she is the caramel colored nethie. Unexpected death, just came in in the morning for her usual morning breakfast. She had been gone for some time already, probably early into the night, after she took her goodnight cookie from my hand.
She joined her husbun, Seaweed the Jersey Woolie, who had passed just a few months prior at 9 years old. I like to think that she just couldn't wait and wanted to be with him, as they've been together for 8 years… always cuddling just like that in the picture.
My heart aches. They were both my first bunnies, stayed with me during my ups and downs, and traveled all across the country for me. A thought crossed my mind that I would've been free of this pain had I never took them in… but, I also never would've learned the joys of being a bunny parent to these two absolutely sweet little things.
Anyways, I'm grieving.. and I wanted to share all the love that these two bunnies had for one another.
I hope they find each other and I hope that they'll be able to cuddle forever.
Garlic, please be nice to him and share the 2nd cookie that I left with you for him. oh, and the strawberries too, you know he loves those. And don't steal his cilantro!
Seaweed, make sure you take care of her and groom her whenever she asks. She gets mad at you when you don't. and watch where you are going when you do zoomies! Try not to run into any walls.. maybe that's why you have such a flat (but kissable) face.
- love, the food lady
