Setting Fluffy Free








On Easter morning, as we walked out to the car for church, there sat a tiny little cottontail rabbit. What a gift--something I needed to remind me of God's little creatures in springtime. The bunny hid amongst the boxes and under the piano but always came out to eat. We kept water and grass out for him and he always ate til it was gone. Finally, after 2 days we were able to catch Fluffy and put him in a box. The first try he jumped out so found a deeper one. After researching and asking friends about care for bunnies, we decided he was big enough to set free. He was just so tiny though. They said if he was as big as a softball and could run away from you, it was okay to let him go. Charley and I took him over to the walking trail across the street, found a treeline with plenty of brush to hide in, and let him go. Hope he makes it. Walking the trail, we look for him, but no sign of him yet.
