But it is hard as we miss having them inside with us to care for and love. But... you are right about not being able to leave them and forever remembering the misery of how awful it was when they were sick or lost to you. I know that the love was worth the pain... but perhaps as we age, we need to learn to let go.Rianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09472421271620543536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971541568171657986.post-26740369999931175092021-06-16T05:40:29.570-07:002021-06-16T05:40:29.570-07:00I am sure you will miss the bunnies, they are lots...I am sure you will miss the bunnies, they are lots of work.

I am sure you miss them each time you are outside. I wish we could all be "forever young", and have as many furbabies as we desire. I recently got a new puppy and the first month was a struggle..reminded me I am no "Spring Chick". Take care and comfort in knowing it sounds like they have a great caregiver and will brighten the lives of many folks when they come for their supplies to your friend's business. So sorry for your understandable sadness.

These along with the garden keep us home most of the time. The bunny is actually easier than the dog at times. We love our critters, but they do create certain nuances when wanting to leave home.

It takes an awful lot of work to take care of animals and that gets hard on you trying to do it all. That's neat to hear that "Chief, Son of Bun" was actually a girl and I love the name Poco or Pocahontas. I know how much you loved your bunnies and you gave them a wonderful life, but it is a blessing they can now have a wonderful life with someone else that loves bunnies. I'm sure Poco likes to stay with her bunny friends and family. It had to be a hard decision for you but it sounds like they are in a good place and maybe this lightens all your loads of work a bit. I always worry about you working too much and hurting your back or just wearing yourself out too much! I'm sorry you are sad and I understand but you made the right decision. It is so important that you take care of you! We all love you Henny!

Sometimes it's just time to let go and you don't own anyone an explanation. If anyone loves and cares for her animals more than you, I would like to meet them. Many are just as loving, but none are more loving. You found them a wonderful home. We also have to take care of ourselves and your back and your health is important.
