Tuk-Tuk the Rabbit

About Tuk-Tuk.

Tuk-Tuk or Cotton (her animal shelter name) came to us as a rescue rabbit from the Humane Society in Vero Beach, Florida, in April of 2010.  She had some serious health issues and for much of her young life was on medication and a nebulizer. 

She travelled from Florida to Cape Cod in 2011 and was introduced to her new veterinarian, Dr. Heidi McMorrow at the Cape Cod Animal Hospital who placed her on a diet of broccoli and carrots which had remarkable results. 

She was an English Angora rabbit and was groomed daily.  We kept her fur trimmed to eliminate fur block which can be fatal for rabbits.  The diet helped because of the fiber. 

She talked or 'sounded Tuk-Tuk' when she greeted me and hugged my feet. It was amazing to watch her interact with friends and visitors.

I do miss her.
