    Goodbye Bunny Button

    Sadly Bunny Button took his last breath at the vets this afternoon. The grandkids, along with us, are taking this very hard. A tribute to Button's short, but good life.







    RIP little one...we miss you!

    OMG! I am heartbroken. And yet, that baby bunny had a life 1000% better than he would have had at the park. His soul will stay with you forever!

    And please remember, bunnies are very delicate. When we raised rabbits many years ago, we learned just how fast they can become sick and die.

    So cherish those memories of precious bunny Button free from guilt.

    Sweet Bunny Button... you made such an impact here on PT in your short time. We'll all be missing you, but hope that you are feeling much better and are not in any pain now at The Bridge.

    Big hugs and thoughts going out to your family. Be sure to watch over them... they're missing you so much!

    Thanks Everyone! It's so hard to believe he declined so rapidly, and no matter what we did. The vet did reassure us we did everything possible. I just can't help wondering what happened. *sigh* at least he did have a good life even if it was so short. Again thank you and we appreciate it.

    Rest in peace, Bunny Button. You taught everyone so much during your time on earth, that your legacy will live on a good long time.

    Now, you go look for Miss Sophie - she's a spunky little black bunny girl with floppy ears - she's been there a while, and will show you where the best clover and parsley grow there, okay? Denver got there not too long ago, tell him we all say hello!

    I'm so sorry.

    RIP Little Bunny Button. You charmed me and many others with your friendly cute ways. I'm so happy you found your mom and dad, fur brothers and sisters to stay with, even if it was for a short while.

    I found this today and it makes me wonder? Bunny Button did have an abscess!

    Pasteurellosis: A highly contagious illness among rabbits caused by a bacterial infection that can rapidly lead to a rabbit's death. The symptoms can include white or yellow discharge from the nose, runny eyes, frequent sneezing, coughing, and difficulty breathing. Often a rabbit with Pasteurellosis will have matted, crusty fur on the front paws from attempting to wipe away the discharge from the nose. Pasteurellosis usually starts as an infection in the sinuses and can spread to the eyes or organs elsewhere in the body, encourage pneumonia, cause abscesses particularly in head and jaw, and infect the inner ear, causing the head to tilt. Pasteurellosis is caused by the Pasteurella Multocid organism, which is thought to reside naturally in most rabbits' sinuses but can multiply under certain conditions--such as in stressful situations or in older rabbits or very young ones--and cause illness and death. Pasteurellosis can be difficult to treat. Sometimes what appears as Pasteurellosis is actually a cold or another bacterial infection, which is generally treatable. Also called Pasteurella or snuffles.

    R.I.P little bunny.
    It's so hard with bunnies, once you see the signs (like not eating ro acting normal) they go down hill SO fast and usually never make it back up.
    They are one of the hardest pets to keep well as so many things can happen to them and take their lives way too soon.
