  My baby bunny passed away at age 5 and a half yesterday. I have been meaning to join this forum for a long time but haven’t brought myself to set up an account. The last 24 hours has been devastating and even though my family loves me, they have never had their heart stolen by little wascally wabbits.
  
  Chicho was just fine binkying around the living room. Not event 8 hours later I found him not eating and not wanting to be touched at 7am. We have been to the vet many times before because he has bladder sludge issues. This time was the first time I thought to myself that for sure he would be ok, he has survived so much already. But the whole day was just bad news after bad news, everything that could have gone wrong went wrong. We found that he has liver lobe torsion through testing and x-ray. I went ahead with the surgery, spent 30 minutes with my sweet baby bunny to wish him luck (I still blame myself for not bringing his favorite treats with me) before the surgery. I received a call after the surgery that he did very well, the surgery was successful and he has stopped bleeding internally. In the middle of “he’s doing so well”, the vet stopped talking and put me on hold. Three minutes later she came back and told me Chicho went into cardiac arrest. They spent the next 10 minutes trying to bring him back. Then I decided it was enough to put his tiny body through so much already.
  
  Chicho is survived by his big brother, Lilo.
  
  Both Lilo and I are heartbroken and we’re trying to do the best for each other. I don’t know what to do to stop feeling like he passed away too soon. He had a very good wabbit life with a lot of love. The night before I brought him into the emergency vet, he was snuggling with Lilo all night who groomed him even though he’s normally not a groomer. That brings me some comfort knowing that he was loved until the very end.

  I’m so sorry for your loss. You did so much for Chicho and for that I know that your boy knows that he was so so so loved!

  Chicho sounds like such a great rabbit. He’s on that rainbow bridge right now telling all his new bunny friends how he had such a wonderful owner and friend
