Last weekend was yet another pet hoo-ha. On Friday, Dennis the rabbit who I posted about here, went the way of the fox. I know! What a shocker. We have, for many years, let him run about in the garden and the first time Dennis actually manages to dig his way out, foxy loxy gets him *very sad face*.
Mr J and P and I were talking about him and Mr J and P said that he could never imagine Dennis as an old rabbit and then muttered something about "living fast and dying young." Y'know, like:
Amy:
Kurt:
Jimi:
and Dennis:
Mmmmmm. maybe not.......
The next morning, I went to feed the guinea pigs and noticed that Ginny looked very still. Yup, she'd only gone and kicked the bucket *another sad face*.
Two out of three pets in two days! I swear when we had to tell Little Miss J and P that another of the pets had died, she looked at us suspiciously as if we were, somehow, responsible for her beloved pets' demise. It's really not true, I promise!
Here's hoping for a happier, non-pet related weekend this time around. xx
Oh No! Two pets in as many days, it's sad when they go...we always give ours a right royal send off, hope they aren't too sad :( x
ReplyDeleteOh no! RIP Dennis and Ginny! Sarah xxx
ReplyDeletewhat on earth are you doing to them? Is it the cold snap? Poor Dennis and Ginny :(
ReplyDeleteOh No im so very sorry to hear your news thats not good at all. Sending you a hug, dee x
ReplyDeleteHi Loo, well you couldn't have timed this post more perfectly. Today, not only did Annabel's fighting fish cark it, but (after finding a lump yesterday) I have just been to the vet's with our pooch, who is now booked in for surgery on Monday to remove said lump ($750 thank you very much!!!) The vet can't tell us what it is, the lump will have to be sent to pathology for a diagnosis - blah, blah. I love our dog -the Jedster - very much, so I'm hoping, and praying even, for the best. I'll keep you posted. Life round here will be bl**dy awful if it's serious, for me, Anth and the girls! Keep your fingers crossed. Please. Denis was very cute. We had a rabbit called Fitzy who hopped off to greener pastures too btw. I'm thinking of you Loo, deepest sympathy and all that, Kylie x
ReplyDeleteIt all sounds very suspicious to me, Loo, I think Miss J&P is right to look at you with fear and dread... Serial Pet Deaths. Very dodgy. The poor child is probably terrified!
ReplyDeletePoor Dennis and Ginny, off to the Happy Hopping Ground in the sky. xxxx
Oh, I'm so sorry, poor wee Dennis; RIP Dennis and Ginny. It's hard enough losing a pet; I can't imagine having to tell your wee ones, but at least you were honest with them and told them right away. Thinking of you. Xo
ReplyDeleteI am so, so sorry Loo. It's times like this that I am so grateful we have Bobby indoors at all times xxx
ReplyDeleteThey will be remembered in the same vein as Kurt, Amy and Jimi. Our guinea pigs went west when the builders left the back gate open - they made a bid for wild freedom and never saw them again...
ReplyDeleteOh dear
Best wishes
Jenny
Poor Miss J and P! And poor little pets too!
ReplyDeleteWas it the cyanide in the food? It can do that, you know...

Oh dear, so sorry to hear about the pets.
ReplyDeleteHope Miss J&P is taking it all ok.

ReplyDeletePoor Dennis! but how very rock and roll his death appears to be!

Never did like that rabbit!!Are you sure it was the fox & not that greedy carnivour MR J & P???X
ReplyDeleteYou cruel and heartless woman you! xx
DeleteOh bless them. I'm so sorry for your losses. Ginny must have died of a broken heart when Dennis died. I've heard of that happening to old people. They are together now. x
ReplyDeleteAwww poor Dennis and Ginny, I'm sure they will be remembered as great pets xxx
ReplyDeleteOh bloody hell, I bet Miss J&P is looking at you suspiciously! I remember my goldfish popping off with alarming regularity when I was a kid and I always suspected my Mum who couldn't abide them. xxxx
ReplyDeleteO no!!!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't bear to have to pass the news onto the kiddies....X
you have some serious bad pet karma! poor bunny, she looked like such a darling too. maybe a per fox is the only way forwards?!!
ReplyDeleteI love your comparisons.....Take care of your other pets.....poor babies and right before the holidays, hugs Heidi
