New Friends

House Rabbit. Two magic words. Wherever you are just whisper them and somebody will dash over to chat. Did you say you have a house rabbit? So have I. And off we go. New friends made immediately.
I haven't met my latest lot yet but their names are Rachel and Ian. Would you believe more Canadians? Then there's Lionel, a white baby lop who is just a few weeks old. J saw a photograph of him on a mobile phone. He is an expert binkier already. Of course his human is very proud of him. I'm hoping to hear from him when he learns to write.
I don't expect he knows how to make his bed yet so that's going to be my video this time. Don't let them fob you off with hay, Lionel. Ask for some small dozing mats and a nice bright red towel to show up your white coat. Towels are good to toss around, they're easy to get into the right position for a head rest and they can be popped in the washing machine where you can watch them swish around.
They seem to be cutting down on my tea these days. All I had yesterday was a bit of parsley, a sprig of mint, a few snippets of carrot, two measley slices of banana and half a dozen sprout leaves. Oh and one dandelion leaf. I could have eaten three times as much. I think it's a plot to make me eat more hay.
Your tea was more than enough, Harve. We don't want a fat rabbit who can't reach to clean those important places although you still dash around the house like a two year old which is very good excercise.
