My Mate Bunny

Now I'm not one to make a fuss as you know but I am beginning to think my two legs have turned the house into a zoo or something. There I was the other day minding my own business having a little after lunch snooze in my bed when in comes trouble.

I heard the doorbell and was about to make a dash upstairs but I thought it's too hot to go dashing about so I will stay here and risk it.

In comes another two legs with a basket and starts talking about holidays and will it be alright to leave Bunny and what Bunny eats and drinks and when Bunny likes to go to the loo and all manner of embarrassing things.

I had no idea who or what Bunny was but I already felt sorry for him or her. How would you like to have all your business laid bare in front of strangers particularly where and when you toilet. I think there are some things that even if two legs know about they should keep to themselves as a matter of respect.

Anyway before long the two legs were hugging and wishing a safe journey and all manner of things. Next thing the basket was on the floor. I made a point of not being interested. I have found that if you show interest you invariably get railroaded into looking after whatever it is and I didn't fancy Bunny and the eccentric poohing arrangements.

Two legs came over and bent down to the basket and said" Well they have to meet sometime so might as well be now!"

He undid the basket and this weird thing hopped out. Bunny was in fact a rabbit, Tall ears and a nose that never stopped twitching. I looked amazed. What was worse it came straight oover to the bed I was in and started to nibble my paws.

"Get off you!" I growled quietly but menacingly.

"Come on let them see we get on and they'll leave us alone and we can have some fun!" Bunny was a bit more bright than his looks gave him credit.

I leant forward and licked his head. Surprisingly like Sebastian's head.

"That's pretty nice cat. Now up out of the bed and let me in, They will know we can be left then"

"You what? I had to wait my turn to get in here when I arrived. So should you."

"If you don't it will be baskets and cages. Come on it isn't going to hurt you is it"

Reluctantly I got out and Bunny snuggled in and went to sleep.

"Aw look they are getting on so well and Casper gave up his bed. We can leave them alright"

Off they went and I turned to Bunny.

"Come on then let's play now they've gone"

"Don't be daft rabbits don't play with cats. Besides I need to sleep go away and be quiet".

You can't trust anyone these days.
