Just before Christmas in 2003, there was an addition to our family.
I had this stupid idea that this little bunny was going to live in a cage in the yard. She trained us up good. It’s been over ten years. I had no idea at the time.
Such a funny little thing. She liked to steal chocolate.
And potatoes, even though they were bad for her, and we had to steal them back, and eventually hide them from her altogether.
I didn’t know she’d become such an integral part of our family, that she’d come to mean so much to us.
Twinkie left us today. She’d been unwell, and her age caught up to her. We knew she was declining, but it really became obvious in the past few days. She’s better off now.
And while we’re better off for having loved her, it’ll never be the same without her.
So sad. So sorry lovey.
Lovely Twinkie xxx
Love to you Donna, David and Em xxxx
Oh, I’m so sorry. I’ve always enjoyed stories about her on the blog. Sending hugs to you all.
It is so hard to lose a child, whether 2-legged or 4-legged. Many hugs to you all.
I’m really sad that Twinkie is gone… I remember looking forward to reading about her (and your knitting) when I have just started knitting years ago. My condolences to you and your family.
So, so sorry to read your sad news. Hugs to you all. xx
I was so sad to hear about Twinkie, she was such a great little character. I know how much she meant to you, and how you must be feeling right now. I’m so sorry, you’re in my thoughts xx
She was obviously a very special, much loved bunny who will always have a place in your hearts.
Twinkie was a special bunny. My thoughts are with you guys. It’s hard losing a family member like this.
Very sad to hear of Twinkie’s passing, what a joy she brought over those ten years. I always loved reading your stories about her antics.
Hugs to you all xxx
