Pocahontas

So...my dear Pocahontas passed away a week or so ago.  She had gotten sick months ago and had her ups and downs.  Before we got all this snow, I was able to give her lots of dandelions which REALLY helped her out.  But then the snow came and I was unable to give them to her...and she started going back down hill. 

So anyway, she passed away one evening.  Now, she was the one who bit my hand and ate the flesh she took...but she was an awesome breeder and an exceptional mother to her litters.  Plus, she was sisters to Malaguena (who I no longer have) and Ruby.  Their mother was Angel.  Angel was from my first litter ever...LE and Oreo were the dam and sire. 

So LE and Oreo had my 3 females, Dadooshka, Pumpkin, and Angel.  Well, when we had that bear come through, Angel had a heart attack and died.  She had an entire litter of young babies she left behind.  And from that litter, was Malaguena, Ruby and Pocahontas.  So we brought them into the house where we bottle fed them for MONTHS! 

And well, now only Ruby's left.  But she's a real sweet heart.  So, it was neat how I had her...even if she did have a bit of an attitude.  But once again, she was a good mother, and that's very important when you're trying to raise up rabbit.
