RIP Estima (Oct 5, 2013)

A sudden crash by a truck - that's what I'm feeling right now. Hit by a hat trick death, I am struck by the death of my another male bunny. Just a month after Furball's departure, I've to mourn another loss today.

Estima was an extremely cute Holland Lop that I started to keep early last year. After the death of Furball, I paid more attention to my rabbits, hoping that the same thing would not be happening to them. I'd taken all the precautionary measures such as trimming their nails, cleaning their cages more regularly and playing with them for physical exercises.

Suddenly, early this morning, I realised that there was something really wrong with Estima. He barely touched his food and refused to drink. By midday, he had stopped breathing and there's nothing more that I could do to help him. I didn't even get the chance to feel sad for him.

Now, I realise that I've to stop blaming myself for anything that happens. I've done my best but it is up to God to whether or not call him back. After all, everything in this world is just a loan from God and He can take back His property anytime because it is His. As a human being, we just have to accept what has been decided by God and be thankful for what we're having today because we may lose it for it is His will.

What I can do now is just to pray for Estima's wellbeing in his eternal world. At least he's not suffering anything anymore. RIP, Estima.
