I can't believe another pet of mine has died again. Cooper, my rabbit has passed away today. He was okay the last time I saw him but when he came out of his hiding, he looks so sick.

It was late afternoon when I got home and I noticed him out of his hiding and looking ill. I touched him and he has hotter temperature than usual and he felt kind of stiff, some rheum in his eyes and sounds like he was having trouble breathing. I tried feeding him but he would not eat so, I just let him be and decided that we should take him to the doctor tomorrow morning. Later on, he went out and ate where they usually ate so, I thought that he was going to be fine. Clean him, take him to the doctor and he would be back to normal again.

That afternoon, I fell asleep and woke up late in the evening. Ate dinner, went to the computer etc. When I went down again, my mom heard me talking to my other bunny telling it to go to Cooper for company, then she told me that Cooper was gone. She said that she and dad were having dinner when she saw Cooper under the table and touched him. Cooper was already hard. The death of Cooper didn't sink in to my mind right away so, I didn't cry instantly and was glad. After coming back to room that it sunk in. I'm not going to see my baby Cooper again..
