Pet Forum / Mammals / Rabbits / May 2005

Dear Nona,

It sometimes happen that my cats or buns run away and hide (I think you've
allready check every hole, shake every stone to find your bun). What I use
to find the bun, are my cat... they have such a good nose, they can find
them so easily (trained for bird hunting, on their one... but happily too
afraid by rabbits to do anything else than play the cat, that is run and
catch, the bigger bun after... the cats !!!)

Have you tryed to borrow a nice dog to have a smell in your garden, for
exemple some Labrador are very nice with buns, won't hurt them, but will
find them in a minute.

I hope you'll be able to sleep... I loose my cat twice, once he was locked
in my neighbour's house (he didn't saw the cat getting in !) the second time
he was locked in my own car-house, he get in while the door was open, and
hide to sleep in a box, I found him about 24 hours later as he was making no
noise, silly cat, I could'nt sleep ! Cats are goods rabbit finder, but
rabbits don't mind about cats !!!

I hope everything get well for you
