The Bunny Incident

Many weeks ago the bunnies started showing up at our house. At first there was only one but then it multiplied into two. The neighbor started to complain that they were eating her plants. Awhile later one of the bunnies found its way into our barn and we captured it and put it in a cage. We named it Nicodemus. Then the neighbor captured the other one. She came over and asked Stephen (because he was the only one home at the time) if it was ours. He said "No". She asked if we would mind if she took it down to the cemetery and let it go or if we wanted it. He said we wouldn't mind and we did not want it. When we got home the new bunny was in the same cage with Nicodemus. Stephen had no idea how it got there because he had told the neighbor that we did not want it. Obviously she didn't listen to him. Well, it turned out the Nicodemus was a girl so we changed her name to Nickie. And cappuccino ( the other bunny) was a boy. If you can't see the problem here consider the saying "they breed like rabbits". Anyway, several days ago Nickie gave birth to nine baby bunnies. Surprise! And now there is a third rabbit hopping around our yard, and we do not want it.

They are so sweet! I think the bunny business would be good for the Hurst family ;)
