Jack, our lovable male rabbit passed away yesterday.
He'd been slowly getting worse these last couple of weeks, so it wasn't a complete surprise. However, and of course, Emilie was devastated when we told her. He was a fantastic little man with a wonderful, friendly disposition. He leaves behind many, many, many, many sons and daughters, so his presence will last for quite a while. As a matter of fact our two remaining rabbits are his daughters.
Emilie named him "Jack" after her day-care friend, at the time, Jack Kelly - it was that long ago! Best we can remember we got him somewhere between 8 to 10 years ago. Whenever any of us would go out to the animals, Jack would come up to the front of his cage and be there to greet us.
We buried him out back after diner last night, in a box that Emilie decorated. Already, it's just not the same out there without him bouncing around.
