I lit a candle for Jack. *huge huge hugs* I was sitting in class earlier today trying to focus on Rossini's Operas but you kept coming into my thoughts. Best wishes again through this time. *BINKY FREE JACK*

I am so very sorry to read this about Jack. My heart is still really tender, after losing my Bella, so I can definitely empathize with what you are going through. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.. both of you! Binky free, Handsome Jack! Bella Bunneh is there.. she's a little bit sassy, but she's an angel, too...

~HUGS~

karla,
That is very sweet that your BF let Jack know it was OK to say goodbye. He is peaceful now.
Thank you, Jerseygirl, I lit a candle for Jack.
There's a field of Binky Bunnies over the bridge.

Our house lit one for Jack, too. Binky Free Jack and hugs to you

Candle has been lit to help him find his way home.

*hugs*

*sniffles and wipes away tears* Its amazing how we can love a little critter we have never even met. All the bunnies here have a place in my heart

I'm so sorry to hear about Jack.

Wishing all those great memories to bring joy and overcome the saddness you feel now. You are both wonderful Bunny parents and Jack was so lucky to have come to you and live such happy days.
Sending hugs your way, wish i had read this at home and not work *whipes a tear*

Isn't it amazing how pets can do that, just wait for the final ok to go. If your other buns are still snuggling next to the body, I would suggest putting out some treats so that they could go munch them and see that Jack isn't going to come with them.  After that, that should be enough time.

BTW, not all of us men are that bad... at least in public.  My girlfriend almost hated me for how distant and cold I seemed when we brought in her old bun's remains to the vet but when she stepped out of the room so I could finish up the paperwork, I lost it.  And yet, was just fine when I left the room.  Sometimes we just have to put on the gruff exteriors so that all the work that has to get done gets done.

Then there are the faintin' pansies...

 

 

I am sending so much love to you and your bunny family. Hang in there. I think that your story has touched a lot of people. I had to wipe away a few tears myself. The video that you made for him is beautiful - he must have been such a sweet spot in your life. **Binky free, lil one!**

We lit a candle for him, too. I am soo sorry for your terrible loss!!

I am so sorry for your loss! I have been crying on and off since reading last night about your appt for letting Jack go. Our bunnies are just so special to us! My husband came in to see me crying last night and wanted to know what was wrong so I told him about Jack and showed the photos. He was quiet for awhile and said he was sad to see a bunny go.

I cry every time I read one of our buns are moving on. It breaks my heart!

Ursula, my most profound apologies for being late to this thread! I am sad at heart to hear that Jack had leukemia and the choice had to be made for his method of passing. But as others have already posted, he would not have known joy or comfort at all without you, and you did everything for him that you could. Having had cancer myself, I know that before any of my treatment began, I wrote out a life plan that would ensure I would not linger and suffer if nothing could be done...although we have no real euthanasia for humans, but you understand the sentiment. We are the only ones who can speak for our voiceless furbabies in this regard. And it is a blessing that they have this option, though it doesn't feel this way to us.
I will join the group to light a candle, even though it is late, to help illuminate the lovely corner of Paradise that is already aglow with Jack's wonderful presence.
God bless you and your partner and remaining bunnies, my dear. May He bring you His Peace and Comfort in the days to come. Thank you for being there for Jack and giving him such a fabulous life!

I'm late to this, but I wanted to give my peaceful thoughts for beautiful Jack. Healing and strength vibes for you, Karla and family.

((((((((((Binky free, Jack!))))))))))

Binky Free Jack!

Thank you to all of you who have sent Jack and my bf and I some thoughts during this time. My bf said last night that I should consider Jack's stay with us as a sort of hospice and that we took good care of him and gave him some great months before he had to say goodbye. And that had been the whole point of having Jack. That helped - although I do miss seeing him come running with his ears jumping up and down because he has just realised that I'm on the couch and it is time to snuggle

But well as I said: thank you to all of you. It carried me through those really tough days to have you guys.

Binky free sweet little Jack!

Oh Karla I just saw this, had no idea. I'm really sorry you had to lose one of your bunnies! He was beautiful and I'm sure he knew how much you loved him and did what was best for him..! lots of hugs!

Thank you, Bougatsa. It's been a month now, but Jack is still very much missed. And just reading Andi's posts and feel her pain, made me cry and think of Jack.

It's hard when we have to say goodbye to those that have a special place in our hearts. But at least they live on in our hearts and memories.

*Binky Free Jack - watch over your humans and bun buddies*

I lit a candle. There is a group for Jack now for those wanting to light one also.

I lit a candle as well, and sat there in silence for 1 minute. I'm truly sorry.
