168/365 - Midnight

That's the name of our friend's bunny-on-loan from the 3rd grade classroom.

Melanie's family is taking care of the cute bunny for the next three weeks, but while they are away at a soccer tournament this weekend, our family has been entrusted with the responsibility of bunny duty.

We learned several things about bunny care:
They eat a lot of food.
They love fresh vegetables and fruit.
Did I mention they eat constantly? (Probably why they pose such destruction in the garden!)

We gave Midnight several handfuls of bunny greens, a bunch of spinach, several apple wedges, a half carrot, two big romaine lettuce leafs and green grass each time we visited. We also allowed him to stretch his legs outside his cage.

But then we had to lure him back in - hence the carrot.

He's a cutie. But a lot of work. I don't think he would like it at our house, with two cats and all. But fun to take care of over the weekend.
