 NAME : LOPPTYPE : HOLLAND LOP RABBIT
GUARDIAN : DANELLA & WENSHUEN
My darling Lopp, I will miss cuddling you, running my fingers through your fur, miss having you lie quietly in a corner while I am working on my computer. I will miss everything about you. Did you lick my hand so lovingly yesterday morning because you knew that it was your time to go? Were you trying to tell me how much you love me too? In the past 4 years, you have been my best friend. You've been with me when I was happy and at my saddest points. When I was down, you never failed to brighten my day. I will forever remember your happy binkies, your chinning, your loving licks, and all the times I held you in my arms.
No other bunny will ever replace your spot in my heart. Although our time together was short, it is a period in my life which I will never forget. When I had you near me, I always taught of how true the phrase "some bunny loves me" is. But yesterday after you left me, the first thing that came to my mind was that "no bunny loves me anymore". I miss you Lopp. I miss you so much. I woke up today hoping that it was just a bad, bad dream. That when I wake up, you would be there to start my day with loving licks but that was not to be. Could I have done more to make your life with me happy? Did I do enough? These thoughts will always linger. Where are you now, Lopp? Are you at the rainbow bridge? Have you met your other furry friends Belle, Hammy, Fody and Duacai? I'd feel better knowing that you are in the company of your furry friends who have left before you. Yesterday when Brazil played Holland, I secretly wished that Holland would win. Simply because you're a Holland Lop. Silly of me isn't it? And when they did eventually win the match, I even thought you might be happy if you knew it. I know this doesn't sound like it makes much sense, but how else do I put in words how much I miss you? Although I may never hold you in my arms or feel your gentle affection again, I'll always carry you in my heart. The memories we've shared will never fade. I'll always love you and remember you. Forever and ever. I know you wouldn't want me to cry anymore. So I shall try to hold back the tears. I will not say good bye to you because I know you'll be able to see me from where ever you are. So in the meantime, I'll just say, till we meet again. I love you so much my precious Lopp. ---------------------------
 NAME : XIAO ZHUTYPE : STANDARD GREY CHINCHILLA
GUARDIAN : XIN & ERIC
Xiao Zhu was a chinchilla we adopted when we were in UK. His previous owner had left him at my friend's place and we connected with him instantly. He was really timid and extremely afraid of human beings, he would scatter away or hide away when you reach your hand for him. Our heart really went out to him as he was in a pretty bad shape.
When we finally gotten Xiao Zhu over, we were really happy to receive our furkid. In the early days, he was very afraid and scattered away from us all the time and hide below the sofa. After sometime, he started to trust us more and became really sociable. In fact, he's probably the most sociable chinchilla we had till date. Eric reminded me of how I always put my hand outside his cage and played "mutual trust" with Xiao Zhu, so that he can hop on to my hands. He was also a very greedy chinchilla! We were really amaze by how greedy Xiao Zhu is as he tries real hard to jump up to the top of his cage where we left his packet of Oxbow pellet. Strangely he doesn't touch his hay at all. He was never given hay as part of his diet prior to that so he probably finds that it was not tasty enough!
After about 3 months, 1 day Xiao Zhu sneaked out of his cage somehow! He's a really light and small chinchilla although he ate alot. He found a bigger gap at the bottom and squeezed himself out at night. We were surprised that he was out of the cage and what's worse he smell like some sauce we ate last night! Apparently, he was rummaging the bin! Xiao Zhu is a very ambitious "hopper" we are really not surprise that he managed to jump into the bin. We were amused yet worried as his fur looks matted and in a mess.
When we put Xiao Zhu down, he ran to the duvet which we left on our sofa, and slept "in it". We thought he was just exhausted after a "night of fun and thus left him alone for awhile. He had always hide in that corner when he's tired and also been a deep sleeper in the morning (waking up at exactly 10pm every night) so we haven't thought much about it.
We started to realise that he appear to haven weaken and something is wrong and thus tried to find for a vet online. As it was a Sunday, most of the vet were not open in UK and it took us awhile to find one with an out-of-hours service. By then, Xiao Zhu can barely stand and we were worried sick about him. The vet merely injected some liquid into Xiao Zhu's stomach to try keep him warm, apart from that he said that Xiao Zhu probably wouldn't be able to make it. When he injected the liquid into Xiao Zhu, Xiao Zhu opened his mouth wide gasping for air. Although he looks like he is in great pain, I actually felt slightly more hopeful about his condition because he didn't even twitch a bit when we were carrying him to the vet. Dejected we took Xiao Zhu home in our hands and kept him as warm as possible, he died on the way home on 19-9-09 so we buried him under a tree.
We cried so bad and couldn't sleep for nights, I felt very sad as I wasn't even able to bring him back to Singapore to give him a complete home. We didn't even have the heart to dismantle his cage because we couldn't accept the fact that he's gone. Everyday we would drop by his grave and drop him some flowers or say somethings to him. On the third day, we saw a rainbow across the sky and we thought that it must be Xiao Zhu crossing over to the other side where he would be free of pain.
We missed Xiao Zhu and he always will remain in our hearts as the most special furkid we ever had. After Xiao Zhu left, we adopted Olive and Miffy as well, not just to fill up the big void he left in our hearts but also we got to know how unique chinchilla are after knowing Xiao Zhu. To commemorate Xiao Zhu we set up a website sosas.info where we talked about our beloved pets and ways to help animals.
To Xiao Zhu, you will always be the first and most special chin we had.
Miss seeing your greedy face, miss shoo-ing you away while you come chew on my notes and miss everything about you! Be gone and be happy forever. We'll be missing you always.
