Today on our way home from work we went a different route. I spotted a bunny running loose in the grounds of a block of flats. We stopped to try and pick it up but it wouldn't come near enough to us. So we drove home, grabbed the pet carrier and some treats and headed back out to try and rescue it. I mean, there was a road right there and it was running around in the road. :shock: So we felt we couldn't just leave it.
Anyway, we get back there and Ian runs off to try and coax it into the carrier, meanwhile I take a look at the ground floor flats and find one with a gated off area with a makeshift pen with a near identical bunny inside. Tried knocking, no one home. Just then, bunny comes round the corner, I opened the gate and managed to coax it back inside the gated pen.
Just as we're about to leave the owner returned to the house. A lovely lady obviously an animal lover who explained that this bun thinks he's a cat and likes to go walkabout. She also has a dog and some cats, one of which got run over last night. I did try to persuade her that it might not be a good idea to let bun go walkabout, thinking foxes, cars etc. But apparently the bun is streetwise and the cats she owns beat up the local foxes so won't come near the place. :shock:
The bun has already had a run in with the local constabulary. :shock::lol: She sad she was going to put a sign up telling local people about the bun's habits so that people like us don't try and catch him!
