        I never expected to be contributing to this section of the forum, much less so soon after joining. A freak accident, the details of which I cannot bear to go into beyond the fact that I came home to find a critically injured helpless little bun crying for his human, led my darling Alfie to the bridge in the early hours of Saturday morning. It truly was a freak accident which could have neither been foreseen nor prevented, yet all I can do is cry and blame myself for failing him. I promised to keep him safe but ultimately I couldn’t. Binky free, my precious little man.

          Oh no, Hazey Jane, this is just horrible news. I’m so very sorry. You didn’t fail him, accidents are beyond our control. We can only do what we can do, the rest is not in our hands.

            That’s so sad to see his name here so soon. I know you feel responsible, but as you and Bam said, it was an accident, so try not to blame yourself. He knows you loved him.

              That’s so sad 🙁 Myself and I’m sure many others here have lost pets to freak accidents that we feel guilty over. I can think of one too, that I dont’ want to talk about – but I play it over and over in my head – the what ifs and should haves, could have prevented the accident and I would still have my pet. It sucks. I’m very sorry. Binky Free Alphonse.

                    Omg, I’m so sorry I’ve lost a pet too due to an accident some years ago and I still am emotional about it…

                    Remember we are here for you, be strong.

                      We are terribly sorry for your loss.

                      I understand its hard but is there any way you can explain the freak accident? I just get worried about my own bunny and I hate to browse this section of the fourms but it helps me learn.. .

                        I’m so sorry to hear about your loss

                        Try not to blame yourself, from your writing you clearly loved him and provided him with the best possible home.

                            Thank you all so very much for the kind words, it means a lot and is infinitely appreciated. Truly. This community is so warm and welcoming, it is so humbling and reassuring during this difficult time. Rest assured that I’m not going anywhere, I refuse to let this terrible experience deter me from having another furry companion.

                            BanditCamp, the accident involved a collapsed bookcase. It happened when there was no one home. There is no way we could have expected it. It really was a freak occurrence. Neither Benj (the boyfriend) nor myself have any idea as to how it happened.

                                  You were there with Alfie to ease with passing. I’m sure that was a comfort to him.

                                  I’m sorry for your loss HJ

                                    HJ, you go and get yourself – when you’re ready – another very lucky furry companion…. you could call him “A.T.” Alfie Two…

                                      Honestly, words cannot express how touched I am by all your support and thoughtfulness. I’m so grateful to have discovered this community, and the kindness that’s been shared here has made the past few days so much more bearable. I thank each and every one of you, from the bottom of my heart. And you had better believe I’ll be getting myself another companion! There are so many buns out there in need of a human, and if I can give even one of them a loving home then, well, that’s something.

                                          Oh no I am so sorry for your loss. Binky free, Alfie. It’s good that you were able to be there for him in the end though, even as upsetting and unexpected as it can be, I think that’s most important.

                                          Once again, I’m so very sorry. My thoughts are with you.
