How we caught the rabbits
Well,we tried the blankets. That didn't work like we all thought itwould. The little stinkers just ran out. So we decided to try the nets.At first these three little bunns had us all winded and falling on ourfaces. Until us humans finally smartened up. We walked along so thebunnstayed along the fence. We finally did this until we hadthe bunnin the corner. My husbband has a fishing net with along handle and so did my neighbor's husband. My husband caught thefirst one and the neighbor used is . I was then able to walk up to thebunn. I put my hand over the shoulders as I slide my other hand underthe net. Once I was able to get both hands under the net the guyslifted the net. I scooped the little one up and checked them for anysores,fleas,mites, stuff like that. One down two to go. Thankfully thesecond two went just like the first.
The brown was a female, the little gray was a male, and the black& white was a female. They were a little skinny, but other thanthat they seemed fine. We put them in individual dog crates. I hadbrought some of Apollo's pellets and timothy hay. They happily munchedhay and settled down. They were either handled alot by theirowner(which I sincerely doubt considering how they came to be wherethey were) or just knew we saved them.Because they had no problemletting me handle them. I stayed for awhile so I could show them how tohandle them. I answered alot of questions. And I will take any of themshould they need a new home-mine.
I feel good. I may not have been able to keep one but I learned avaluable lesson. That although I am still heart broken I can still careand even with timelove again. I know who I have to thank forthat. So my dear Athena, thank you Angel.
