Farewell My Gwennie Bee

21 August 2010 I brought Guenevere
 home from the rabbit shelter. 
Someone tossed her outside
 thinking oh she looks like the
rabbits outside she'll be fine.  

When the director of the shelter
 told me that she had been found outside,

 pregnant and had been
 at the shelter for 4 years

 I decided she was due for a home. 

I changed her name to Gwennie
 and later Gwennie Bee.

 

 

This is her on the day I brought her home.

 

and this became our nightly routine...

 

 

Gwennie went to the vet last

 Wed. for GI stasis.  She got

3 different meds and I thought

no biggie she'll snap out of it.

  When she didn't I ran her back to the

vet on Sunday.  I had a feeling

 it might be cancer.

After an x-ray I discovered I was right.

She had a tumor over her heart

 and so I had to put her down so she

would not suffer.  The heart problem

 triggered the stasis. 

 

 

She never was my first female rabbit

 and she never liked

any other animals.  She really

 only warmed up to me.

 

So here are some pics of

 her life with me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

somewhat blurry pic of her

 in the herb garden this spring

 

 

I created a new flower bed in her honor.

She is buried beneath the red hibbicus by

the bunny statue.

 

Someone once tossed her aside, I found her,

and loved her and am so glad I chose her.
