Awww I am so sorry for your loss, its devastating to loose a pet, do not stop yourself from grieving though, you made the best decision for her. I had to get our Hamster put to sleep last week as she had a tumour that had been operated on and returned start to take over her chest cavity and I still shed a tear for her and often find myself in the boys room where her cage used to be, still missing her scrunched up face looking up at me

Aww
For you too
No offence taken LMS xx
I'm feeling a little better now, very sad obviously but I can now sit in the garden
I was awful at the vets, just absolutely crying my eyes out. It;s the first time that I've ever had to make that decision with a pet and I still feel so awful that I condemned our trusting little bunny to death, even if it is for the right reasons. I feel so guilty and horrible.

I'm so sorry x - I had to do the same with my little Daisy bun on 6th April. She had similar symptoms to your little one and I felt so guilty. She was old aswell (9 and a half), but I felt terrible. You just have to think they had a lovely life and you did everything you could x
Often people just don't realise what little characters these rabbits are!
I now have two new babies (lionheads) who are absolutely gorgeous.

I dreaded taking my rabbit to the vet the last time
Good luck to Blackberry

A friend copied this poem for me in a card when I had to have our beloved last cat put down a year ago
Foxy
If it should be I grow frail and weak,
And pain should keep me from my sleep,
Then you should do what must be done
For this last battle canβt be won.
You will be sad - I - understand
Donβt let your grieve then stay your hand,
For this day, more than all the rest,
Your love and friendship stand the test.
We've had so many happy years
What is to come will hold no fears,
You'd not want me to suffer, so
When the time comes - please let me go.
Take me where my needs they'll tend,
Only stay with me to till the end,
And hold me firm and speak to me
Until my eyes no longer see.
I know in time you too will see,
It is a kindness you do for me
Although my tail its last has waved,
From pain and suffering I've been saved.
Do not grieve that it should be you
Who has decided this thing to do
We've been so close - we two-these years
Donβt let your heart hold any tears.

Veggie what a beautiful poem
Fox - I'm so sorry - I hate hearing stories like this - it's heartbreaking - you just feel so helpless.
Edited.

Foxy, I"m so sorry at your loss
That poem made me cry remembering my lovely Posh Paws who died 19 years ago this month, he's in my sig now as a memorial.
