Goodbye Fuzzbucket
My dear friend Lara from my bunny mailing list lost her bunny. Fuzzbucket (aka Fuzzy, Fuzzwah, HRH and The Bunny of Doom) was suffering in the late stages cancer, which Lara helped release her from on Thursday.
Lara met Fuzzy when Fuzzy was an adorable baby who insisted Lara take her home. Lara was on vacation, 12 hours from home, but nevertheless, how can you argue with true love?
Fuzzy was a loving cuddle-bun, and Lara and Fuzzy were soon inseparable. Lara didn’t let Fuzzy out of her sight for the first three months.
Unfortunately, wasn’t long before Fuzzy began developing health problems. She developed polycystic ovaries, which made her a crabby gal. She also developed problems with her eyes, and had her right eye removed. She later had her left eye removed as well.
She was still plucky, though. She would not be kept down by illness. She continued to share her love with Lara, and found love in a sweet, snotty-nosed lop rabbit named Lumpy Custard.
It was eventually disagnosed that Fuzzy, who was constantly developing strange recurring lumps, was suffering from cancer. In her case, it appears that she had had cancer for quite some time, so chemotherapy would not be possible. Lara did her best to make Fuzzy comfortable in her last few weeks, and finally let her go on Thursday.
Fuzzy, Fuzzwah, Fuzzbucket, HRH, The Bunny of Doom, who would have turned 2 on February 29th, is now at the Rainbow Bridge. I asked my bridge kitty Yuki to meet her and help her feel welcome.
We’ll miss you, Fuzzy.
