Here is my situation. It is crazy but i don't know what to do and need some advice. Here we go:
My dear Peanut got out and went missing. I searched for hours and hours, days and days, finding no sign of her more than a pile of her. I found no blood, body, or anything - just 2 distinct piles of her fur where she was multing. I seriously thought she was gone forever. I accepted it and thought that I had lost my Peanut forever. This killed me inside and i have thought about it every single day since.
Fast forward 1 month almost to the day. I was in my bed at night thinking about Peanut. I thought to myself, "maybe ill just check craigslist or online... its worth a shot?" I really had no hope because it was a local rabbit that got out and we have a lot of woods behind us with tons of wild animals. Anyway, the last search I do is on Petfinder - Literally the last search I do for the night. I was praying inside I would get a hit on something but inside knew it was almost impossible.
Low and behold, there is a picture of a rabbit that looks EXACTLY like Peanut comes up at the bottom of the page. I think to myself that a lot of rabbits look like peanut, and i need to keep reading. I read the description and I am floored - It reads along the lines of " recently brought in, overweight, doesn't like to be picked up, etc".. EXACTLY like Peanut. The pattern on the face (a white cross) is identical.
This is when things start to get weird. My girlfriend then comes up to my and tells me she didn't want to tell me before but the neighbors were acting very strange when she went over to ask them about Peanut's disappearance. This, combined with the fact that I found no blood or body, makes me believe that she was alive and possibly taken to a rescue I found online.
I have since gotten in touch with the rescue and the owner seems very distant... claiming that this particular rabbit that i believe is mine has a new best friend and she will not split them up. I am stuck with how to handle the situation. Are there laws for this? I just desperately want to know if it is indeed her. I have a sample of her hair and was wondering if I could do a DNA test?
Either way, its a crazy story and i'm hoping for a miracle ending. I will keep this thread updated. Pray for me everything works out! ray:
