i just rescued a rabbit :)


Well, I didn't spot him first. It was my dad who went jogging last week near the park at my place. There is an expressway next to the park and Dad found him wandering among the bushes just next to the expressway! *horror* Anyway, Dad even went up to him to give him a pat. But he disappeared shortly. My dad went back again the same day but couldn't find him anywhere. I went back the next day and I still couldn't find him anywhere. It rained heavily the next day and I was thinking... that was it. Don't think he could have survived...

BUT, HE DID!!!! cos more than a week later, Dad spotted him wandering at the same place again! He called me immediately and was talking to me when he disappeared among the bushes again. I rushed down immediately. Dad directed me to the same spot and I was standing there for like only 10 seconds when...

I got bitten by mosquitoes! ARGH!

I couldn't take it so I quickly stood on the pavement while my dad went around the bushes to see if he could still spot him. He came back to where I was standing and we stood there chatting for a while to see if he would come out.

We were just talking for less than a minute when I suddenly saw a bob of white fur hopping out from the bushes from the corner of my eye. It's him!

My heart started to beat really fast and I told my dad that we shall approach him cautiously and quietly. He came nearer to us and my dad went behind him. I just shouted 'rabbit! rabbit! good rabbit', gave him 2 pats and grabbed him and put him in the carrier! It was so easy! Dad and I started laughing really loudly after that cos we were happy that this little fellow was finally found and the rest is history.

presenting to you... roger rabbit!



He has some special markings around his eye area. Looks like he's wearing black eyeliner so he's a hotot. His ears are drooping down so he's a lop but not a full lop cos he can still erect one of his ears when he's feeling 'KPO' about some strange noises.



This is how he looks like when he's eating... :)

Roger sleeps like a PIG! He will flop to his side contentedly and nothing... NO NOISE can wake him up... geez... I dropped my keys and he just went on sleeping like a pig!!!! oh boy...

He looks like he has fainted here... haha... Notice that the carpet has been 'removed' courtesy of him. I laid the carpet for him cos it would be easier for him to stand as the granite flooring can be quite slippery. He pushed the carpet away and slept on the floor as it's cooler for him! haha...
Anyway, will post more pictures of him. Meanwhile, the other 3 in the other room are...

... busy hiding among the hay... trying very hard to blend in with the hay so that I cannot see her... try harder, Gracie!



... busy searching for more veggies in the bowl... greedy girl!

... busy 'rotting' away on a lazy afternoon... oblivious to all the drama outside the room... haha...
