Was woken up this morning by Tom shouting 'The bunnies have escaped!!!'
Jumped out of bed and ran out. I hadn't locked the hutch doors properly Apparently you need to push them down until they touch the blocks of wood, which I didn't know! They'd gotten out into the run and dug up all the pebbles to make their escape!
Tom had seen Pumpkin but not Dexter. So, whilst Tom tried in vain to catch Miss Pumpkin... I went searching for Dexie. Heard some rustling in the outhouse (there's a hole in the bottom of the door), opened it up and Dexter came out to greet me He let me pick him straight up for cuddles and I popped him back in the hutch.
Pumpkin was another story... Tried rattling the Fenugreek bag and she came running out but quickly realised my intentions so ran back behind the hutch! Tom and I had to put a long bit of wood down the back to try and make her back-up so I could grab her and then off she went back in the hutch!
It's just as well my garden is bunny proof, eh? And again, it was Sammy our Greyhound who alerted Tom to the escapees!
