Now I Know Why Farmers Hate Rabbits

We have discovered why farmers hate rabbits. It's because they dig holes. Now, Stew has a perfectly decent hutch to live in but he's decided to dig a burrow, it's taken him about eight months to think about it, underneath my shed. I'm going to have to put a stop to it. Last night when I went outside to photograph his paw-work I caught him in the act.

Rabbit Stew Is On Tonight's Menu

That rabbit would be on the menu tonight if we were going out for tea. Little bugger has chewed through the speaker wires on my stereo. It's a pity that I wasn't listening to it at the time. I wonder how much damage he has done to the power cables in the vicinity.

Rabbit stew. Mmmm. Just in time for the onset of winter.
