I was totally shocked the last time I was in the hospital (end of August) they had a menu and you just ordered your meal when you wanted it. Several Panini's sandwiches, Omelettes, etc.Actually it all went a bit pear shaped. I'd just got home when the Nice hospital rang and said that my bloods were unexpectedly bad and I needed a transfusion again. Long story short I'm back in but into a really nice private room. At least I'll probably get both the stem cell collection and my anemia sorted at the same time.... Honestly though it was like slapstick... I'd got home and hadn't even packed my bag and the call came in. I then had a whole 20 minutes before the taxi came to pick me up again...
As far as as the food goes it's not good as you would expect... For supper I had 2 sausages with dried smash potato mix, a bowl of half water half lentil soup, a roll, cheese and a pot of fromage frais. If anything I think the French food is marginally better than English
Hope you're doing ok mate and good to see you popping in![]()

Thanks to chanelvaps I’m meeting a nice lady to borrow a trap to try to get Stevie home wth me. It’s exciting![]()
Of course it is. All wild animals would love to be cared for. Some it is just not possible (deer, bears etc) in this case I see no harm. What is she going to miss? The cold, the lumber truck missing her by a hair? Not sure if you read a little bit back but another bunny was smashed. The area is not a designated bunny wildlife area. Just seems some have landed thereI just hope that moving her from her environment to another is going to be the best thing for her. It will be for you, but its she that really counts hey. I'm sure you thought that through properly though...just saying.
beautiful guy!I see all the beautiful animals in this thread and have to share this memory of my forever great loyal friend Zeus.
You won't be forgotten. We miss you.

There are no words to describe how nice this thing is. The build quality and finish are amazing. Very badass.

Rabbits are in plague proportions in some parts of NZ. Especially down (or is it up) where @AngeNZ lives. They plague especially the farmers. In some parts they started introducing a virus to control them. Naturally the bunny breaders and people that have domesticated bunnies are up in arms. They apparent introduced the virus in my area to, but I don't see any difference in their numbers. They are everywhere when I walk the dogs.
I agree. based on her ears and her color I do not think she is 100% wild. I goggled this all day today and read a lot of information on it.If I were sure she was a wild rabbit, I’d be more concerned about that. She really does look like a domestic though, even if she’s a few generations from being owned by humans. Native rabbits will struggle in captivity, from what I understand. But Stevie seems to have little fear of humans, at least Ricky, and that lack of fear translates to lack of stress, and will work in her favor as a pet, while it makes her far more vulnerable in the wild.
I think the biggest challenge is going to be the change in her diet, because she’s eating mostly grass and weeds now. She’s going to need to adjust to the new food source.
Maybe when spring comes he can build her an outdoor areaYeah I agree, she does. She's used to her freedom though. I think as long as she gets enough of that with tha Ricksta she'll be fine. She'll grow into it....![]()
Good afternoon Shiny Ones !!!
Out for delivery is the Animodz (Doggystyle) clone from FT. Yes, that IS the name they gave it.

Also some misc odds and ends.
Very easily. Like a hot knife through butter. Drilling plastic is very easy.Oh esteemed gurus of the DIY....will a normal drill and bit bore wire size hikes in my new discovery??
Dunno, maybe her baby (or babies) and friends. Who knows what goes on in a bunny's head. I was merely putting it out there...What is she going to miss?



I have a 6' chainlink fence around 2.5 acres. My dog thinks it all belongs to him. He learned that from another dog I had that I called my serial killer. Any wildlife in my yard doesn't last long unless they can make it through the fence. My dog now catches everything even a few birds. He hasn't caught any roadrunners yet but he has caught a couple ravens and other birds. Rabbits (sorry Ricky), squirrels, lizards and snakes have no chance. God forbid a coyote would be stupid enough to get in the yard.I had a bunch of bunnies in my backyard. Of course at first the dog thought they were new chew toys I got her, but they eventually worked out a truce. They never made eye contact. So long as no staring occurred all was peaceful. They ate out the herb garden, but the deer were eating everything else anyway, so why fight. The only traumatic experience was looking out at bunny brunch and having the damn fox pop up, grab one, and take off. Even the dog was ...... but it happened too fast for me to intervene or let her out to scare off the fox.
The life in the wild is not so pleasant. I expect Ricky will be a very good dad and Stevie will have lots of fun hopping around the house while making believe she really can be litter trained.

Baby bunnies are very hard to hand raise. We've tried twice now and I'm sure it won't be the last time. They are so fragile. It's amazing they survive at all in the wild.At my old house here in Georgia I had about an acre and I used to let my cats go out daily, home at night. For two springs in a row one of my cats brought me home baby bunnies. He was a nest robber! After the second spring he was no longer allowed to go out. It was very sad. I called the wildlife rescue peeps and they said even if you rushed it here to us the chance of it surviving is almost zilch.![]()
