Assalamualaikum
This is Orange The Doe-Eyed Rabbit.
Found during the early month of Ramadhan by Feefa Malek. Under a car. Cold and Wet. She took him and fed him tons of carrots and he healed a bit. Waited 2/3 days for some owner to claim him but no one came. Orange was a good natured rabbit. He was gentle and quiet. And incredibly tolerate. When i first met him, which was 2 days after Feefe found him he was weak, his legs were limp and wet. We amateurs bathed him guna sabun Body Shop.*aku pun x pakai Body Shop* He was so sweet about the whole thing. He sat quietly, and struggled a bit but that was that.
I adopted him. At nights he would spend his time in the cage, mornings we would let him out in the lawn. Sumpah dia comel sangat. On the first day he was shy, he limped a bit. That picture above was him on the first day. Spent the whole day within the closed area. He likes carrots but grew tired. The next day dia hilang dari area tu. He hopped around and was as fit as a bunny. He ate roses, my grandma's flowers, plants and ulam. He ate everything the humans liked best.
My mother suprisingly took instant liking in him. She gave him the name. Orange. My brother liked him too, only naturally. He's an animal lover. He hugged him and carried him around. My grandma wanted to make satay out of him. But she couldnt because the family liked him so much. Even visitors fed him veggies, cuddled with him. Despite he was an old rabbit.
One day, he crossed the drain. He fell and broke both of his hind legs. I found him in the evening. His life started to degrade from then. He couldnt move, he dragged himself everywhere. One night, i fell asleep early and that night, it rained heavily. Orange, once again, got caught in the rain. With broken hind legs. The next morning, he has no more Doe-Eyes. He was really sick. His foot stucked out of the cage. And I was really really sad.
Me and my brother brought him to the vet. Clearly, we had the sickest pet around. The dogs and cats were staring at him. People were asking us how'd he get into that state. He was sick as sick as any rabbit could be. Our turn came and the vet took us in.
Orange weighed 1 kg. Underweight for an old rabbit. He had osteoporosis. He had kudis on his nose. And he was old. His hind legs were broken. And he was quiet. The vet asked me. "I think its best we put him to sleep. He has almost minimal chance of healing. Would you like to see him put into sleep?"
I said no. And farewell there and then. Goodbye Orange. Gave him a pat. And a tear in the car.
Orange was a sweet, good rabbit. I'm gonna miss him. I hope he had the best last month of his life.
