Case Of The Missing Bunny

[Old Smokey]

Yesterday my daughters screamed and I went running outside. Their rabbit had disappeared. Using my deductive skills I determined that they left the front latch unlocked. They were devastated. They said they locked it the day before when they fed her.

My deductive reasoning concluded that the latch had not been locked. Today, while feeding the other animals, I spied a little white and black rabbit hopping around my shed.

I approached the renegade rabbit and managed to coax her out of an empty tube. I grabbed her by her scruff and placed her back into her hutch. My girls were ecstatic! Dad saved the day. So ends the case of the missing bunny.

It is amazing the rabbit survived an hour out there. Rabbits are on every last predator's choice of meals in the world.

You're telling me. We have six owls on our property alone and coyotes are active because of birthing season. I was prepared to shell out $50 for a replacement. It's a Dutch rabbit so they are a little expensive.

My wife and I had a black/white dutch that free roamed the house. Lived to 12! Fantastic animals.

What's the maintenance like for an indoor rabbit?

What's the maintenance like for an indoor rabbit?

For us, it used the litter box. On the lines of a cat, but not an evil asshole. He’d disappear for a while under the bed or coffee table, then he’d be out running circles around us or sleeping on our lap. As long as he had food and water, could leave him for the weekend without worry.

Whether ours was the norm or not, I don’t know but our experience was great and easy. His hips started to give out the last 2 years or so and it was tough but the first 10 years, we’d even put a harness on him and take him outside.

We occasionally have feral rabbits grazing in our backyard.
We also have hawks that like to sit atop the old wooden playset looking for the feral rabbits and birds when they are hungry.
