2017 - 2026 🌈 Rehomed and re-loved until the end. Named after @jennycolgan's Neil the Puffin.

Bunpals, this is his mum. I'm truly heartbroken to share with you, that whilst Neil did start to respond to treatment, he quickly started to deteriorate, with vets suspecting a blockage. Sadly he was too weak to be operated on and he crossed the Rainbow Bridge this afternoon 🌈😭

New ice pod put in part way through the day at the weekend and Benjamin was delighted, treating us to a flop!

@4Livingtheory Thank you, he just always wanted to be with us, such a huge presence in our lives

So many photos on the computer to go through/edit. Christmas 2025 caught my eye, never knowing it would be his last with us. Always in the middle of it all, eating paper, chewing boxes, this time also having a moment where he climbed on a still wrapped tub of chocolates.

@kawazoe316 So very hard, there are so many times when he'd be there joining us but he no longer can.

[Neil The Rabbit @RabbitNeil]

@RichardIIIGhost One of the best things about him, he loved being with us, and if we went upstairs he'd seek us out

@mrsbunnyw @alisonblair30 I'm sure he did and I know that he was far better with us than where he came from. I can't believe how lucky we were to find him.

I still find myself having a moment missing Neil with a few tears. Buttercup and Benjamin have been too hot this week with the weather, I thought how Neil would've been laid in the sun in his favourite spot. Buttercup has been off her food a little last night so I'm watching her

@mrsbunnyw 😂

Oh to have no cares on a warm day and chill next to ice!

[Neil The Rabbit @RabbitNeil]

@alisonblair30 It's just awful, every little thing is a reminder and brings tears

[Neil The Rabbit @RabbitNeil]

@BunnyMadalyn I've been putting wet kale in which she's happy to take, she's had some hay and some treats, playing her with stuff. She seems happy enough, just watchful as she usually goes straight for tea which she didn't last night.

The vets that tried their best to help Neil & where we said goodbye sent us a lovely card a few days after his death. I wanted to let the other where he regularly had his teeth done know. I commented on their social media, they replied with a lovely message & sent this card 🥺

@bunarium C'mon mate, don't do this to your hooms!

[Neil The Rabbit @RabbitNeil]

@baileybun1 Thank you

[Neil The Rabbit @RabbitNeil]

It's raining for the first time since we buried Neil in the garden and all I can think about is him getting wet and dirty. He always spent so long keeping himself pristine. This upsets me so much. 😣

@Giddyone Thank you x

[Neil The Rabbit @RabbitNeil]

Tues was 2 weeks since we lost you. Still the silence in the house deafens us, no claws on the floor, no chewing, no rumpus when you're up to no good. We don't miss having a rabbit in the house, we miss you. I wish with all my heart we could have you back

@1Cruickshank Thank you x

[Neil The Rabbit @RabbitNeil]

Having a little weep seeing the card the vets sent me, that's on my desk. And the footprint they took for me after we had to let him go. I haven't been able to post that, I still find it hard to look at, but might add it to some jewellery I'm looking at that I can put some fur in
