    Yes this is what I said and from the attitude of the poster, this is what I still think. Having read some of her previous posts, I am not surprised about this storm in a teacup. I would, however, be seriously peed off if some busybody threatened to rehome a rabbit I was looking after, particularly if they had already been told by the HA that it was temporary.

    You didn't - and I didn't say you did.

    But you did quote my post in your dig at Money maker and GwilymT so I replied.

    They also said it would be gone Fri its now Mon and its still there. Im hoping Money Maker you wouldnt think that a bin store with flies was suitable place for a rabbit for at least 11 days now (or it would be if I hadnt moved it)?

    As you've seen previous posts you'll also see a rarely post which one in particular was it that offended you?

    That was my third note the first one in particular was nice.

    The 'melodramatic' comment was whats commonly known as a joke taken aroun the hysterical tone of lots of the posts on here (post you've had a row with your husband and within 6 posts you will have been abused by a narcassist)

    You didnt get hectoring from replies I did, you got meladrama when I meant joke see how easy it is to misread tone.

    Strangely?
    Defensive?

    Not at all. Just answering your question and stating a fact.
    Okaaaay?

    Please see these, I believe from the use of the phrase 'Storm in a teacup' busybody and oh yes calling my dogs 'bunny killing' I may have evidenced my point.

    Im fairly certain my dogs dont consciously plan to kill rabbits so that language may have been a bit emotive.

    Theres the one about how someone would be narked to discover I had given the bunny a carrot and some chard, which also helps.

    Perhaps people's images of 'bin store' differ to reflect their experiences. What one person may see to be a squalid, filthy, germ ridden area could be a clean, tidy and a not particularly unpleasant area in another's eyes. As I said, if you posted a photo we could advise accordingly.

    As you now mention you've left notes, have these notes been removed and read by somebody or are they still there?

    The 2 posts quoted below about not feeding the rabbit made perfectly valid points.
    You could be doing more harm than good.

    Helps what?

    Personally I would not be interfering by feeding the rabbit. It's not your pet and for all you know it could have health issues aggravated by feeding it certain foods.

    As said above, be careful feeding the bunny if you don't know what the people looking after it are feeding it. My rabbit, as many do, has a sensitive stomach, and I would be pretty upset if I found someone feeding him greens and carrots in addition to what I was feeding him!

    I'm sure your dogs don't plan to kill rabbits but you yourself mentioned that they would kill if given the chance:

    I have two jack Russells that are bred to kill rats, rabbits and badgers I already cant take them in the garden due to them breaking into the bin store to get at the rabbit.

    I believe Money maker used the phrase 'bunny-eating' rather than 'bunny-killing'.
