The day before yesterday, the kids came running in from the garden to tell me there were two girls trying to "rescue" their rabbit from under a car. Turns out the rabbit had been out on and off all week and kept escaping. Went out to help along with another neighbour who caught her. The girls told me that their mum let it run the streets because she didn't like it. So anyhoo, we took her home thinking the kids were exaggerating. I asked the woman if she wanted the bunny back, and she said no
So bunny came home with us. They had thought she was a boy, but she is a girl. They said they'd bring her hutch up, but didn't until last night, and I can see why. She is a very very large bunny and th hutch was 3ft. She had eaten her way through parts ofthe interior walls to make room to lie down (and even then there wasn't enough room). The bottom level of the hutch didnt have a door on, so it doesn't take a brain surgeon to work out why she kept escaping.
We've made her a little enclosure which she is warm and safe in until we can find somewhere that makes 6ft x 2ft hutches (or until we convert a 2nd hand shed).
