Dear Bryan, I have to tell you the truth, as I see it. I'm a bunny. A Honey Bunny to be exact. I'm no run-of –the-mill bunny either. You see, I'm an actress. I even went to college to study acting. I figured if Bugs could do it, then so could I! Well, all I was able to get was a few commercials and a couple of hop-ons. There really wasn't a market for bunny actresses. I'm still sad about all that lettuce I had to pay for tuition. After that, I drifted into writing satire. But, the trouble is, it's very hard for a bunny to find material to satirize that hasn't already been done by humans.
One day I read about a genius cat named George. He looked like a fine feline in his photo with white fur and brown markings like bunnies have, of course. His ears looked to me to be a bit short, but we can't help the way we were born. The article I read spoke about perfectly good behavior on George's part, to my way of thinking. The problem was that his people didn't really understand his unique qualities. They thought that he was a bit of a pest and that he was always trying to escape. I recognized right away that the only thing missing was communication. The humans simply didn't understand him. Which brings me to the purpose of this article; after duly considering the article and George's plight, I arrived at a humdinger of an idea. I could enlist his obviously gifted services as a partner to help me write!
What an idea! George and I could talk and then I could satirize our conversations! I speak fluent Kittiez and no doubt a cat of Georges' caliber speaks Hareze. What a team! Unlike George, I WAS born with opposing thumbs (and neither one is opposed to the idea), so I could care for George and provide for all his needs. George and I could keep each other company while MY Honey Bunny is at work. We could amuse ourselves by playing games like Hop and Leap. That's a good game to get lots of exercise. I'm getting excited just thinking about it! Then, after lunch when we get sleepy, we could curl up together in a ball on the soft down comforter on the bed. What a wonderful nap we could have; safe, warm and secure in our cabin in Alaska. What a wonderful thing that would be!
Well, Bryan, what do you think? I don't think it's a hare brained idea, do you?

would you like them here.....or to go.
do you want katnip with that....Question....if carrots are so good for your eyes.....why do bunnies have such big ears????
When I was a child, I had a rabbit. (A big flop eared one.) This rabbit loved one of my moms white and black cats. And by that, I mean, he -loved- this cat.
And -wanted- that cat...
... we ended up giving the rabbit away to a breeder, because of that. But man, it was funny. This reminded me of that and gave me a good laugh!
Nicely written.
Meryl, been there done that..t-shirt shredded...!
