Loppy was a lovely rabbit, we were asked to give him a home 6 years ago when his previous owner
could no longer look after him. I always said I don't get attached to animals, but I did with
Loppy, he was lush, so placid, we could let him out in the garden and he never attempted to get
under the gate or run away. He would love to eat raisins out of your hand, he came running when he
heard the raisin tub rattle.

Loppy was about 10 years old, and for the last few weeks his back legs were starting to give way.
On 21st September 2009, I let Loppy out of his hutch in the morning, as usual, went out, and came
home to find him lying on the grass, soaking wet as it was raining, he had been unable to get up and
back into his hutch out of the rain. His back legs had gone and he couldn't support his weight
anymore.

We took him to the vets and they advised having him put to sleep, they were suprised at how long he
had lived.

I held Loppy while they injected him, and he went to sleep. I brought him home and we have buried
him in the back garden where he loved to hop about so much.

RIP Loppy

Beyond the Rainbow

As much as I loved the life we had and all the times we played,
I was so very tired and knew my time on earth would fade.
I saw a wondrous image then of a place that's trouble-free
Where all of us can meet again to spend eternity.

I saw the most beautiful Rainbow, and on the other side
Were meadows rich and beautiful -- lush and green and wide!
And running through the meadows as far as the eye could see
Were animals of every sort as healthy as could be!
My own tired, failing body was fresh and healed and new
And I wanted to go run with them, but I had something left to do.

I needed to reach out to you, to tell you I'm alright
That this place is truly wonderful, then a bright Glow pierced the night.
'Twas the Glow of many Candles shining bright and strong and bold
And I knew then that it held your love in its brilliant shades of gold.

For although we may not be together in the way we used to be,
We are still connected by a cord no eye can see.
So whenever you need to find me, we're never far apart
If you look beyond the Rainbow and listen with your heart.

Precious Love

The agony is so great...
and yet I will stand it.
Had I not loved so very much...
I would not hurt so much.
But God knows I would not want to diminish
that precious love...
By one fraction of an ounce.
I will hurt...
And I will be grateful for that hurt
For it bears witness to the depth of my love.
And for that I will be eternally grateful.

♥These are my tiny paw prints, so perfect and so small.
These tiny little paw prints, no longer touch the ground at all.♥

♥Not one tiny paw print, for now I have my wings.
These tiny little paw prints are now meant for other things.♥

♥You will hear my tiny paw prints, in the patter of the rain
Gentle drops like angel tears, of joy and not from pain.♥

♥You will see my tiny paw prints, in each butterfly's lazy dance.
I'll let you know I'm with you, if you give me just a chance.♥

♥You will see my tiny paw prints, in the rustle of the leaves.
I will whisper names into the wind, and call each one that grieves.♥

♥Most of all, these tiny paw prints, are found within your heart
Because even though I'm gone, we'll never truly part♥
