[Dailydrool] Sister Bunny left for the Bridge today

[AWoodrum]

Baxter and I took our Bunny Girl in and let her go today around noon.  It's
a little too quiet here this evening.  Baxter and Bunny were a bonded pair,
so I wanted to make sure he understood what was happening with Bunny.  After
she was gone we put her on the floor so he could sniff her and realize she
was dead.  He groomed her every day, so I was not surprised to see him
grooming her eyes and face two different times, he knew.  I brought him home
and then left for an hour or so, went to have lunch and just sit down and
de-stress.  When I got back home, everyone was pretty subdued, Baxter must
have told Holly and Bea what happened, which is what I was hoping.  I could
have taken Holly with us, but Bea the ADHD lunatic would have made the whole
thing a circus, and I did not want that.  Fingers and paws crossed that
Baxter copes with his loss.  I do not normally pick up cremated remains, we
just have them cremated in a common group, but this time I decided to do a
private cremation and get Bunny's ashes.  In the past other Droolers have
said that when they brought the cremains home, their other dogs sniffed the
box and then everything went back to normal.  I'm hoping this will help
Baxter and the girls, knowing that Bunny is home.  We'll see.
