Does He Look Like A Bunny Killer?
Would you believe our little alpaca herder is a rabbit killer? Apparently yesterday our neighbor, Dave, (as opposed to the neighbor “Not Dave”) said he saw Christian attack and kill a rabbit in our back yard. Dave wanted to be sure Christian was OK, that’s why he told us. I did not go out to the corner of the back yard to look for the bunny remains.
He seemed so normal when I came in the door. He didn’t look or act like a killer. Although, I wonder if he was trying to impress me. I’ve been cursing the dirty rabbits since they first started eating my daffodils last spring, then this spring again when they ate my tulips. I wonder if he thought I’d forgive him for being the pee-dog if he killed the nasty flower eating rabbits? Just the other night I was telling him he wasn’t earning his keep. You see, there was a fly in the room and he was watching it, but he wasn’t doing anything to actually CATCH it. I told him that Mabel would catch it if she was in the room. Mabel is a good bug catcher…then she plays with them tormenting them. She’s a little bit sadistic actually. But she gets the job done. I see very few bugs around the house and I saw even fewer at my apartment. I think Bijou was a better bug catcher though.
The boy is going to go look for the bunny carcass today. He’s got the day off so he can clean up after Christian, would that make him an accomplice?
