I lost my bunny Butterbean yesterday morning. The hardest part was he was alone at the vet for overnight hospitalization and had to pass away without me or his bonded siblings. 1 day at the ER and 2 days at the vet hospital to which he finally succumbed to GI stasis, GI bleed and obstruction, and severe gas. He had IV Fluids, everything you can imagine and passed before he could make it to surgery. Butterbean was going to turn 5 this coming May.
I love Butterbean. He was and still is everything to me. I have not been able to stop crying and even feeding my current two remaining bunnies is difficult. He was my soul pet. How people have soul dogs or soul cats? He was my soul bunny. In his final days before going to the vet, he would jump on the bed and lay with me all day long. Was that his way of saying goodbye? There is a hole in my heart that will never be filled. How do I deal with this grief? I took his body home after he passed and hugged it for hours before returning him to the vet for cremation. The days have been going by so slow.
Such a small body made such a huge impact. ♡
