We had a sad event at the Andersen home today. Our newest bunny, Licorice, passed away today. We aren't positive what happened but we heard a rabbit screaming (and yes the really do scream!) and ran to see what was wrong. My first thought was that Lilli had gotten into the cage and was "loving" the bunnies too much; instead we found a bunny that was very hurt or scared and within a moment he was gone. We aren't sure what happened originally, but I am almost sure that he died from a heart attack, the number 1 killer of rabbits. They just can't handle massive scares.
We are all so sad, he was so sweet and friendly. It is always hard to lose a pet, but it is a harsh reality of having animals, especially when we have so many. We will miss him but are happy we could make the last few weeks of his life happy.
