My bunny died last Saturday. Actually, I took him to the vet to be "put to sleep". He was almost ten years old. Poor Sebastian couldn't stand on his own feet anymore. He couldn't get in and out of his litterbox anymore. He was covered in his own urine and poop. He smelled like an ammonia soaked rag. My poor bunny. He's the first animal that I ever "put to sleep." So I tried to give him a carrot, which he wouldn't eat and then bundled him off to the vet. Dr. Phil came in with a big...

SIMON!!! Isn't he cute!

I'm trying to put a picture here. Can you see it? It's my dog Sparky. If this works I'll put some pics of the new bunny. and here's another

My new bunny is home. He's a boy. I still haven't picked a name. He's a californian rabbit which means that he's mosly white with black feet, ears and nose. His eyes are pink. He's soooo cute and sooo friendly already. How do I post a picture of him?

A big black lab followed my neighbor home. She went in her house and shut the door. I was letting my dog out and found him. It was very clear that he had several tags on his collar. I brought him inside to check him out and see if there was a number on one of the tags. He ran through the house and found the toilet. Why do big dogs like to drink out of the toilet? He was a mile from home down a very busy 45mph street so I called the owner and he said he'd be right over to pick him up...

I'm leaving the little guy's name ambiguous. You could say I'm protecting the guilty. He's a little love bird. I got a call on Sunday. "Please come get this bird today." This from a woman who has been telling me for TWO years that her bird needs a new home. I've told her all along that I would take him. I wish I had been more forceful. Several months ago I got the same call, but when I went to the house this woman's son wouldn't let me take 'B'. He was holding it 'hostage' in t...

Today, as with the past three Saturdays I took my bunny, Simon, to a local rehab facility. It's amazing how something small and furry and can make so many seniors oooh and ahhh. This week two women said, "Oh, he's getting so big" and "He's starting to grow into those ears, isn't he?" It's an amazing thing to see people who are non-vocal respond to him. One woman named Florence looked at him, smiled and said, "ohhh." This is a woman who I see regularly, but mostly she seems to s...

Autumn Woods Walking in the woods is a good way for me to relax when I am angry or upset. Anne Frank, in her diary, explains my feelings very well. She and her family were forced into hiding during World War II. They lived there two years, without ever going outside, before they were discovered. She wrote, "The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely, or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be alone with the heavens, nature, and God. Because only then does one f...

I looked out the window today and saw the first change to fall colors. Some green leaves are turning yellow here in Michigan. I'm really a Spring person but when I read that my Grandmother's favorite season was Fall I have a new found appreciation. Camping in the fall is the best too! How about you? What's your favorite season?

I'm getting a new bunny and I'm not sure what to name him/her. Here are my ideas: boy - Casper Axel Simon Harley Oliver Roux girl - lucy laci zena gracy daisy either - sunshine what do you think I should name my rabbit?
