Until We Meet Again
Twix
I got Twix in 2019, and from that moment on, he grew up right alongside me. We went through so many chapters of life together—apartment living, moving back home during COVID, and settling into grandma and grandpa’s house, where grandpa built him and Oreo a beautiful enclosure in the garage, complete with heating and cooling.
Twix was there through everything. He was there when I met my husband, when we got engaged, and when we bought our first home—where he and his brother Oreo even got their own bedroom. At first, they weren’t quite sure about my husband, but before long, they became the best of friends.
Twix had such a personality. He loved getting into mischief—especially chewing up the carpet (with a little help from his brother). But he also loved his routines. Every morning, he’d be waiting by the door for me to open it and bring their morning greens. He’d do his little circles and binkies before happily munching away.
He was my cuddle bug. I could lay on the floor next to him, pet him, and talk to him about my day, and he never seemed to mind—especially as he got older. When he was younger, though, all he wanted to do was run, binky, and climb on absolutely everything he could.
Twix was just about to turn 7 next week.
I had been praying that when his time came, I could be with him—and God answered that prayer. Twix passed peacefully in my arms on 4/14/2026 at 12:30am. A little over a month ago, he was diagnosed with a tumor in his chest, and though we fought for him, it ultimately won.
But that tumor is no longer taking his breath away or causing him pain. I find comfort in picturing him now—free, healthy, and binkying across the rainbow bridge as his happiest self. 🌈
Twix, you were so much more than a bunny. You were my best friend, my comfort, my little soulmate. I promise to take such good care of your brother Oreo.
You were so deeply loved by so many people, and you will be missed more than words could ever express.
I love you forever, my Twixiepoobear.
Goodbye for now 🤍
I also want to extend a heartfelt thank you to AEC, especially Kathleen M. Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and for going above and beyond to help us through such a difficult diagnosis. Your support and bedside manner meant more than we can put into words. Thank you as well to the entire staff for your patience, care, and for always being there when I had questions. Our family is so grateful.
