LOL, rangeroger! I thought about this last night as well!

So....Roger comes in and relays the adventure. "Snake had left poor dead bunny in the trail--news at 11." I'm not squeamish in the least, can't afford to be, but I knew that my dog would be home any minute, and a dead bunny rabbit is a terrific chew-toy. I went out to the trail, and there was the dead rabbit. TINY little thing, could have fit two of them in my hand. I reach down to pick it up, and it suddenly springs back to life! Hopped a few feet down the trail and waited, I went to grab it just to make sure it was okay, and it bolted. We figured if it's moving fast enough to get away from me, it's healthy....

And Aine, there WAS a song! Mousethief wrote it! A lovely little bunny ditty about "Mama said don't go up that trail"


Rick: Jon was mostly right (thanks Jon) if you can leave a door open for them, they do try to go out, but with cats in residence, it's hard to do. An easy way to catch them is just to throw a towel on 'em and pin the edges down, then scoop 'em up in the 'bag'. You're less liekly to hurt them that way, and a thick towel means they are less likely to hurt you too.
