Woolly for you

I'm not sure whether it was a lapse in concentration or a lack of respect for the destructive ability of the bunny, but my husband left a long piece of wool on the carpet. Dijon noticed and was picking it up then putting it down, the way they do when nesting. He probably wouldn't have given it much more attention, but I thought I'd better move it to safety, and that's when he decided he really REALLY wanted it. That wool belonged to him.

It started with a tug-of-war, with me not daring to pull too hard in case I damaged his teeth, but then Mabel joined in and it became more of a fight. They were like 2 puppets on a string. There was aggressive tugging, tossing of heads, each trying to win it from one another and from me, then Dijon managed to run off with it, and the wool very much lost! Interesting how they can vary their bite from holding wool to severing wool to chewing wool.

Needless to say it had to be recovered quickly before more was consumed.
