BBC News website: 'Rabbits gave me a reason to live'

[Forbin]

Cognitive Bunny Therapy (CBT) helped me overcome my angora-phobia.

[Any resemblance to a certain psychiatrist is entirely coincidental.]

Just one more rabbit post by me:

Rabbits are prey animals. Ever alert to danger all around them. Yes, cute and furry with adorable little mouths and whiskers, big ears. All the better to hear encroaching predators.

Of course as a child I was attracted to the rabbit's beauty, as well as its quick reflexes and alertness to danger. I am that way now, innately and pragmatically.

After all, women are, at times, prey animals.

I had a pet rabbit, Tiffia, when I was a child. He was an outside rabbit. He had a bed, food bowl, water bowl, and salt 'block' in the corner of a shed. The other half of the shed was the chicken shed. Every morning we let out the chickens and the rabbit. Every evening we shut up the chickens and the rabbit. He was very friendly. When he heard us come outside to play he would join us.

I am a big fan of horses, which are also a prey animal. I don't know if that means anything.

Rabbits gave me a reason to live," she said. "I had to get out of bed every day to go and see them.

Then she got PEM.

Jane currently owns 72 rabbits with her husband Douglas - she has had over 240 in the past

Is there such a thing as a crazy rabbit lady?

 

[Wonko]

It would appear so.

I think we don't hear so much about them coz rabbits eat everything, cats only eat the best bits.

Esther Crawley & Trudie Chaldee are working with Ms Bramley to develop a new rabbit based therapy.

Good for those with allergies

This thread has made me hungry! Sorry bunny-lovers.

And laugh at the very funny responses.

Here’s perhaps another ingredient to add to the stew recipe?

Feed the rabbits on the cannabis maybe.

Stoned rabbits are the anti-marijuana movement's weakest ploy yet

Fairbanks is a member of Utah’s Marijuana Eradication Team, and his tale of finding a stoned rabbit just languishing around a marijuana grow site was, how do I put it, interesting? “One of them refused to leave us, and we took all the marijuana around him, but his natural instincts to run were somehow gone,” he testified. Oh no. So medical marijuana should remain illegal in Utah because some rabbit might get high? Dude.
