... in my cage.


In memory of all the bunnies we couldn't save
... with our added hope for the future.



I remember Easter Sunday.
It was colorful and fun.
My new life I'd just begun
... in my new cage.

I was just a little thing
When I came home from the store,
And they put me on the floor
... in my cage.

They would take me out to play.
They'd love and pet me all the time.
Then at day's end I would climb
... back in my cage.

But as days and weeks went by,
I saw less of them it seemed.
Of their loving touch I dreamed.
... in my cage.

In the night outside their house,
I felt sad and so neglected.
- Often scared and unprotected.
... in my cage.

In the dry or rainy weather,
Sometimes hotter sometimes colder,
I just sat there growing older,
... in my cage.

The cat and dog raced by me.
Playing with each other only,
While I sat there feeling lonely.
... in my cage.

Out on the fresh green grass,
Kids skipped and laughed all day.
I could only watch them play,
... from my cage.

They used to take me out
And let me scamper in the sun.
I no longer get to run.
... in my cage.

I was once their "cuddle bunny",
Like a little ball of cotton.
Now I've grown and am forgotten.
... in my cage.

I don't think that I did wrong
At the home I did inhabit.
- I just grew to be a rabbit.
... in my cage.

Now they've brought me to the pound.
- I was once loved and enjoyed.
Now I wait to be destroyed
... in my new cage.

Neglect = Abuse!
Spend a few minutes with your pet ...
Renew an old friendship.
