Ripening Rabbits...

Late this afternoon, Mom decided to go outside and let us run and play for about 20 mins. We had a blast, frapping and checking out the stuff in the front pasture and in the front woodpile area instead of the back one.

Even mama ran around a little, and I almost out ran Auntie Sadie and she is about 5 times my size, being a 45 lb. Black Border Collie. One of these days, I’ll have to tell you more about her. I ADORE my Auntie Sadie!!! Mom says that may be why mama hates her so much. Something about a “green-eyed monster.”

Anyway, we were having a GREAT time until Mom called us and said we had to go in. We figured we were going to get to go out the back through the house, but then we found out that Mom planned to go out and do some stuff with the horses.

IT’S NOT FAIR!!! On the way outside, going through the washroom, Mom found the young rabbit we’d had outside ripening for a couple of days. She doesn’t know who brought it into the house, and I’m not telling either! She snatched that almost totally ripe bunny up, hauled it outside into the back pasture, and pitched it into the ditch back there where that stinkin’ old song dog that lives on the hill is going to get it tonight. Shoot! Now we are going to have to start all over again!
