Some of you will be relieved to know that Stu the rabbit has gone to a better place — by which I mean a new home with a kid from the local school. Really, whatever did you think<\/em> I meant?<\/p>\n

\"Not<\/a>

Not actually Stu — pun intended (photo credit: alexhydephotography.com<\/a>)<\/p><\/div>\n

Stu spent a few days\u00a0here, eating prodigious amounts of silver beet, rocket and dandelion, and housed in a nice snuggly hutch in the chicken run. When my\u00a0friend Amy-from-next-door came over to brush the ponies I introduced her to the bunny. She immediately\u00a0pointed out that Stu is\u00a0actually a girl rabbit (nine year olds who’ve grown up on farms know these things).<\/p>\n

Amy would have liked to take Stu home herself, but she already has two pet bunnies\u00a0and she couldn’t persuade her mum to accept another one. Instead she pitched a wild rabbit adoption\u00a0spiel to her classmates at the nearby rural school. This may or may not have been shored up by the cute photo from last Monday’s post<\/a>. She\u00a0must have been pretty convincing because one of those farming families took the bait,\u00a0and\u00a0Stu left yesterday afternoon\u00a0to start\u00a0a new life in a far-flung Northland hamlet<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Goodbye Stu (or perhaps we should call you Su), we hope you’ll have\u00a0a warm hutch\u00a0and plentiful greens.<\/p>\n

Amy, I’m pretty sure, has a bright future ahead of her\u00a0selling sand\u00a0at a\u00a0beach!<\/p>\n
