MOCHA
Mochi-Bun was the best soul that ever came into my life and taught me about unconditional Love and Trust…. How can I ever repay you? There is a huge crater in the middle of the house without your larger then life bunny-tude! I miss your Pokie-Pokie with your nose, growls and "gentle" grabs of your teeth in the morning to remind me that you were still boss of the house, with your sweet kisses that you would caress all over my face just to say "Hi" or "I understand"! You were always so happy to see me when I came home from work and would place your feet on the end of the cage and reach up with a kiss ready to place on my hand or face…

"Mocha" adopted me from Brambley Hedge Rabbit Rescue in Phoenix, AZ on 1/28/2001, when Stacey Shirer plopped this big chocolate rabbit in my arms at an adoption event and told me she had a "strong attitude." In the beginning, I had no desire to get attached to Mocha as she was selected to be the cat's company whilst I was away at work. Mocha had other ideas as to whose companion she was planning on being, and that was certainly not a feline! In the beginning, Mocha would give me kisses and turn and chase me down and bite me. It took me 9 months to convince her that she was going to be in this household for the rest of her life, and I would always be her Slave as she was Queen of the domain. Mocha would chase the cat down and "extract" a chunk of fur out of her kitty body in the beginning to let her know who was in charge of the house.

I also took the greatest enjoyment in watching Mocha do the Bunny-Apolis-500 around the living room in Scottsdale and how she would climb up the side of the wall as she was going so fast she had to use the wall to turn. Additionally, she was fearless rabbit and would explore all parts of the house without any hesitation.

Mocha enjoyed the company of her little Dutch mate "Monty-Python" also a Brambley Hedge Adoptee, who played and flirted with her, and worshipped her to the end. I love how you both managed to fit into your hay-box, side-by-side facing opposite directions to be with each other, because you love each other so much!

Mocha was a beautiful Agouti Chocolate Brown, with the softest fur that one ever felt, with a long nose good for poking you to tell you she picked you to be part of her family. She gave the best "Scooby" kisses you ever felt, with this wild little tongue that would kiss you all over your nose and forehead indiscriminately, and would suck on my bangs to do her own hair-dressing. She gave me kisses every Valentines Day, even when there was no human who would.

Mochi-Bun you are the BESTEST bunny to the end and you opened up my house and my heart to forever providing a home to rescue rabbits and have saved 3 lives as a result of our relationship. Please be good bunny…until I can be with you someday.

Thanks, Teresa
