RIP Archie

The day I was dreading arrived today. My little bunny mate hopped over the rainbow bridge early this evening peacefully with me and his little cuddly toy piggie friend by his side, and I'm heartbroken.  

I've been so blessed to have had him making me smile - and swear! - for the past 13 years and I will never forget his funny bunny ways!  I've been a very lucky bunny owner and have shared so many happy moments with him......... typing this through tears is proving difficult.   Rainbow bridge.......

There is a bridge connecting heaven and earth. It is called the Rainbow Bridge because of it’s many colours. Just this side of the Rainbow Bridge there is a land of meadows, hills, and valleys, sweet clover and lush green grass, a waiting place.
When a beloved bunny dies, he goes to this place. There is always an abundance of food and sparkling fresh water. When he arrives at the Rainbow Bridge, he is greeted by many other bunnies.
There is never a cloud in the sky and every day is Spring. The old animals are young again. Those who were hurt and maimed are restored to perfect health. There is no fear or sadness in this place.
There is only one thing missing. They are not with the special person who loved them on Earth.
Each day they run and play and nap in the shade, nibble sweet grass and share stories about the special humans who loved them.
Suddenly, one of the bunnies stops!
Little ears perk up, a pink nose twitches, and bright eyes search the distant horizon. Then this one quickly bounds away from the group, leaping and hopping for joy.
You have been spotted.
You are showered with a million wet,
snuggly kisses.
Then you and your special bunny friend cross
the Rainbow Bridge together,
never to be separated again.
