Man's Best Friend: A Rabbit

Move over, Rover. Here's the story of a guy and his rabbit. From the Fort Saskatchewan Record:


Man’s best friend isn’t always a dog, attests Sharrif Johnston.
In his case it’s a rabbit.

The local 36-year-old man’s newfound furry friend has taken Johnston as a parent figure after the infant rabbit was discovered tangled in some fishing line and likely abandoned...
...
...“He’s a good bunny. He makes my world,” notes Johnston, who takes the rabbit everywhere he goes.

Johnston can often be found with Gordon perched on his shoulder as he pedals his bike around the city. When the two got to the park, he says his rabbit doesn’t try to hop away.

“Gordon rides on my shoulder. He goes where I go,” says Johnston. “He doesn’t ever try to just take off. I don’t know why. I guess he’s just very loyal--more so than a dog.”


I've said that I really don't know much about rabbit ownership in the past. Perhaps some of you who care for these furry friends could fill us in here about what rabbits are like. How they play, how well they travel, etc. And don't forget that I'm putting together a PetPourri in October so send those snaps of your rabbits in...
