Meet Rupert

Rupert is my bully girls best friend - NOT!  Rupert, is that despicable white bunny who turned up one day on vacation, and now his furry slippers are well and truly, under the patio table.  Sugar, bless her, hates him.  He knows this and keeps out of her way - JUST.  If she was younger he would have been long gone, but since he moves faster than her, he survives and lives in rabbit heaven, my garden.  Ok, so maybe not heaven exactly, but it's far better than being cooped up in a cage 24/7 don't you think?  He gets full run of the garden by day and goes to bed in the evening with plenty of food.  In return he keeps the garden weeds down and gives us hours of amusement watching him cutting down the lady's mantle like a miniature tree lopper.  And despite me not being an avid bunny lover, I've grown very fond of him now and couldn't imagine my garden without him.  Awwww....

Thank you Abby, but those two fluffy white ears should be little red horns. He's and absolute terror at times!
