Jesse came home to me yesterday - he was doing very well at LouAnn's
andwas ready to come home for the remainder of his convalescence. But
within hours after we got home yesterday, he just shut down - still
could kiss the skin of you if you let him, but otherwise, just didn't
have his zest. Could have been the car ride that stressed him a bit -
but I think he just wanted to be home when he passed away. He was
kissing me up to the end. I was just getting ready to give him his
dinner and when I lifted the cage up, he raised his head to me - then
took about 10 gulps of air and was gone. He was in my arms as his life
force left him.
I can't begin to put into words what this little
"killer" bunny boy was to me - except to say that if it weren't for his
precious soul and wonderful personality I probably wouldn't have opened
my home to so many bunnies. My heart is absolutely shattered - I'm
drained, I wanna be with him - he was my everything, but his legacy of
bunnies currently in my home are certainly helping me get somewhat of a
grip - my time and memories of him are the some of the most precious of
my life. His little wifey Jazzy actually stayed put for a two-finger
pet, and Dexter won't leave my side when I enter the bedroom and I'm
looking forward to a long snuggle session with him when I go to bed.
Sierra is being terrific - just letting my lay with my wet face smooched
in his belly. My furchildren are a tremendous help right now - as are
all my wonderful friends.
My many thanks to so many PBers for their generosity with the
prayers and vibes - he used them all. He'll be so missed by me, and by so very
many people Jesse touched whether it be through a personal contact with
this loving little bunny boy -or by his everlasting smile in his
"Killer" bowl.
XO Stacey
