- Yet more bunny stories. Featherstonehaugh is our house
- rabbit, he's just under 4 years old and has very high
- petting requirements. Usually he avoids me, because I am
- the one who does nasty things like medicate and trim
- nails and hold him at the vets, and prefers to go to my wife
- to have his forehead rubbed.
-
- Recently, he has taken a liking to feet. When I am going
- through the morning paper and coffee routine, he will
- start nuzzling up to my unshod feet, which is quite pleasnt,
- but he will not let me rub his forehead. If I ignore him,
- he nips the offending foot, if I try to pet him, he scoots off.
- Does anyone have an explanation for this, or is it just the
- old "I'm a bunny, you can't win" ?

- If these are my organization's opinions, I'd be extremely surprised.
