    Morning all,

    I'm just posting quickly before OH comes to pick me up for the funeral.

    WARNING DON'T READ IF YOU'RE EATING

    We've had a sad morning already. I went to check on the bunny this morning and her cage was open and she wasn't there. :eek: I looked around the garden for her and called Ds1 to help me. We searched everywhere but couldn't find her. Ds2 came out to see what we were doing and so i had to tell him she had gone. We were all looking and knocking on doors to see if anyone had seen her. Oh came over to help as well. We found her under the conifers being eaten by a cat:mad::mad:. I took both Ds's in thankfully they hadn't seen anything Ds1 heard but Ds2 didn't so i've told him she's run away with another rabbit so they can play in the fields. Poor thing thinks she's coming back after nursery. I'm gutted and have been crying all morning:o.

    THURSDAY's LIST COMPLETED!!!!

    Hello everyone!

    Had a lovely walk in the park with stripes this morning. She made friends with another dog and despite the heat they ran and ran and ran and ran and ran! She's shattered now and didn't even make it to her bed before she collapsed in a heap - I know the feeling!

    I've also been shopping to get the last bits for DD's residential school trip. Done my list and now i've got an hour before I start work. Time to flake I think!!

    Hugs to all xx

    The cat must have opened the latch there were scratch marks on it. Poor little thing she was only a baby we'd only had her 2 weeks.

    holly big hugs, what an awful thing to happen.........I know my cats catch bunnys.....but we live near a farm.......so there are plenty of wild ones. That was very quick thinking to say she's run away to play.........xx
