Today, I was responsible for taking care of Hoppers, the rabbit belonging to my son's third grade class. Tomorrow my son returns Hoppers so the next student can care for him. That won't be happening because Hoppers hopped out my fifth story window. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, after I warned my son repeatedly that if he wanted a rabbit he had to clean and feed it, I checked on it. It wasn’t just dead, it was dead and rotting in a pool of its own pee and faeces. I yelled at him, but he just shrugged and told me rabbits are boring and he forgot it was even there. FML
Today, my dog proudly brought home a rabbit he'd killed. The same rabbit that belongs to my neighbor's daughter. FML
Today, while mowing my backyard, I messily discovered that a family of rabbits has been living out there in the tall grass. FML
Today, my sister brought her class hamster home from school. Somehow it escaped from its cage, and ran into my room. My boyfriend, thinking it was a mouse, stomped on it. I'm stuck cleaning hamster guts from my carpet, and have to explain to a kindergarten class what happened to their pet. FML
Today, I finally decided to get my five-year-old son a rabbit, so I explained to him how to take care of it. When I'd finished listing all the things he'd have to do, he replied, "That's too complicated... Couldn't we just eat it instead?" FML
Today, I saw my four-year-old son running around outside, and copying everything our dog was doing. I thought it was cute, so I went to grab the camera. When I went back outside, I saw my dog eating a dead rabbit, and my son doing the same. FML
Today, I drove home on my birthday, and my mom said she'd meet me there. I was a little surprised to get home and find she wasn't there, but even more shocked to see my rabbit run over in my driveway. Turns out he'd gotten loose and my mom had run him over, panicked, and left. FML
Today, I came home to find a mouse in the garage. Frantic, I killed it. My 7-year-old son came home from soccer, and started crying because he couldn't find the class pet, Mr. Whiskers. I killed my son's class pet. FML
Today, I was on my back patio talking with my husband. It got dark outside, and I saw something shuffling in the back yard. I freaked out so bad that I went to run inside, only to fly face-first into the screen door. Turns out the shuffling was a baby rabbit. FML
Today, I had to tell a parent about her son kicking a boy in his class. She blamed me for not watching him. I wasn't watching him because I was turned around to care for another boy he had hit right before that. FML

this reminds me of what happened to me in kindergarden :( I was the second last person to take care of our class hamster, and I played with it too much that I accidentally killed it... When I had to return it for the last kid to take care of it, I said it was sleeping. He came back the next day with the dead hamster, thinking he killed it :( I never told anyone it was me.

57 do you not let your rabbits out of their cages? you don't just keep them penned up- they need to run around.

Maybe Hoppers commited suicide to get away from annoying little third graders. I would too if I were in that position. R.I.P. Hoppers, I'm sure you are happier now.

I envy people who can laugh about this. Normally I could too, but for some reason this just tears me up inside. I can picture it so vividly... Maybe it is because I have a rabbit of my own. I do not know. I can find humour in far more tragic affairs, such as actual people dying. But there is something about an animal like a rabbit...its complete innocence, its inability to comprehend its fate... :(

It looks like Hoppers was an appropriate name.
