My Samantha
I was on a trip to Ohio accompanied by my pet bunny Serena. Some friends told me they had resuced a rabbit.
the guy had saw her in the parking lot at his work place and the following day when she was still there he decided
to catch her and take her home. But they already had a dog, a cat, some horses, etc. so their kids were not really
playing with the bunny and she was just staying out in the barn with the horses. So they knew I had an intense love
for bunny rabbits. When they first asked me if I wanted to see her I said I should not because I could not take her
because I already had a rabbit ( at the time I thought it was best to only have one at a time). But after being asked
several times I decided I would take a look afterall it was and bunny and I do love them. I still remember the first time
I saw her, she was looking up at me with the sweetest bunny brown eyes the moment I saw her I knew I'd be making
a special trip back up to Ohio to pick her up. I held her for a few minutes and decided to myself her name should be
Samantha. I had a full car and Serena with me so I made my way back to Atlanta and started to plan for my return
trip to Ohio to pick up my new bunny Samantha. I got her in late October on a Sunday on the time change weekend.
She watched me very intently from the backseat while I was driving. She was at first a pretty shy bun. But that could
have been the result of treatment she had been through before being found in the parking lot, I'll of course never know
what she might have gone though but I was going to make sure she had a wonderful life from there on out. Her and
my other bunny Serena never really bonded they both just bonded to me. So they always seemed to compete a little
for my attention, which they both recieved. She was so shy at first that when I would give her veggies or treats she
would let them sit for hours before she felt secure enough that it was actually for her to eat. She went from being that
shy and timid to a bunny who not only begged but demanded her treats and veggies. She loved to sit on my lap and
be held for cuddle time, she enjoyed tv and movies one of her personal favs was Seinfeld reruns. With proper treatment
bunnys can be excellent pets. And with proper treatment their true personalities will really show. Samantha got used
to me taking photos of her as whenever I go out shopping there is no telling when I spot some little item that will make
a great bunny prop. So as a result I do have lots of photos of her which are always nice to have. Samantha attended
some conventions with me as well appearances in her home state Ohio and she went to Chicago too. About two years
ago Samantha had to have a rather serious surgery. I was really worried she was not going to make it through that. She
of course did so I'm very lucky to have had this these years after that with her. She ended up having labored breathing
and had a vet visit on Friday, they indicated she might not make it through the night but were unsure from the xrays
what the problem truly was so she got some med and came home with me. I of course was very worried about her
I did not sleep much either Fri. or Sat. and on Sunday morning when I got up she was so weak I could not even move
her for fear of making something worse, there was no way she was going to make it to the emergency vet. So I just
laid down with her to be with her til the end which was only a few minutes. I truly believe she waited for me to get up
and be with her. Thankfully her passing was quick and peaceful. And I had the chance to tell her once again I love her
and goodbye.
She was truly a sweet natured and fun loving bunny. I loved her with all my heart. I am so glad I got to spoil and pamper
her. And I'm happy I earned her trust and love. She will be greatly missed.
R.I.P. my Samantha
In the future months I of course will be getting my Samantha tattoo:) Its my own person way of a tribute to my bunny.
And look for her pics from her photo shoot she did with me just a week before her passing, they will be in an issue of Cult Goddess magazine.
