Yesterday I had the saddest evening/night in such a long time, that I can't even remember when was the last time I was so miserable. And I will be for few weeks, at least. However silly this may sound, I am crushed, because my beloved pet, namely, a bunny, died. He wasn't just a regular rodent, oh no! He was more like a dog to me. Not only did he behave like one, but he also was my companion for twice as many years as it was expected in the beginning. Domestic rabbits are supposed to live around 5 years. Mine was with me for 10 years. I remember exactly when I got him, I finally convinced my mum to buy me one, when I broke my arm. He was sort of a consolation I guess. And he definitely was. I do realize that it is nature and I am so grateful that he was alive for an unbelievably long time. I know that this is just how it goes, but the awareness doesn't make me feel any better to be honest. I was looking forward to coming back home so much, inter alia to see these tiny ears! I still cannot wait to go back home and reunite with friends, family and my lovely dogs, but just the thought of that one piece missing makes me break down in tears. I can't even imagine my room without that little bastard...
Obviously, this has nothing to do with the general topic of the blog, but that situation is pretty much all I can think of. I've always been extremely emotional if it comes to animals, but I haven't really lost any of them since I've been a kid. There is only one conclusion, no matter how expected it is, loosing a precious pet always hurts terribly, and in the end, it is always a surprise. I just wish there were no such horrible surprises..
