I don’t feel good. I can hardly hold my head up. Food doesn’t even look good. Mama offers me a piece of banana. But I just ignore it. Finally, mama picks up my limp body. She pets me and kisses me. Life would be good, but I feel icky.
(Mama’s note: Teddy being lothargic was bad enough, but not wanting any banana caused me to panic. When I held him and rubbed him, I found lumps on his lower belly. Yes. I panicked some more and called the vet. Dr. Roberts had me bring Teddy in immediately even though she had to stay past office hours to look at Teddy. Teddy had a blockage in his intestine. Everything I’d read about this said that bunnies in this condition needed surgery and had a very low survival rate. Dr. Roberts that she had a non-surgery treatment (this was May 2000). I left Teddy there and went home a very sad mama.)
Something’s up! There are boxes all over the condo. Lacy has to stick her nose into every box just to be nosy. I, on the other hand, have to check out everything to make sure mama does the right thing – whatever that thing is. It’s so much fun. Anyway mama’s putting things in the boxes. This is great.
Whatever’s going on Lacy and I are helping every step of the way.
A couple of days later, mama takes Lacy & I to grandma’s. This is strange. Mama has all of our stuff set up over here. Now mama’s boxes are here.
We have a new home.
