pearl Report post Posted May 15, 2008 So there I was in the pet shop buying my mums doggie a litter tray (well its worth a try I suppose) when this HUUUUUGE came loping round the corner & scared the bejesus out of me. I mean, you could have put a saddle on this thing. Turns out it was a giant French wabbit, not some hallucination brought on by too many jaffa cakes, & they live in your house & you take them for walks etc. It came right up to me, sniffed my toes & decided to let me live. Phew! I was looking for a piccie but it wont let me copy it, however there were LOADS of for sale ads, I have this image of thousands of terrorised families confined to one room of their houses while Bugs commandeers the sofa & drinks all the beer!

Flora Report post Posted May 15, 2008 omg pearl I would have been terrified ! I've got a real phobia about rabbits. I used to think they were these cute little furry things until..... When my dd turned 4 she wanted a rabbit so off we went to the pet shop and picked out the cutest little baby bunny. Well we read the books and had everything set up, got it home and did everything you are supposed to do. After a couple of weeks it started attacking your face with it's claws whenever anyone tried to pick it up. Then one day I was cleaning out the hutch and it attacked the brush and ripped it to shreds . It then sunk it's teeth into my husbands hand and started taking big running leaps and flying through the air. It went completely bonkers. So we put it in a box and took it to the vets and explained that we had this vicious mad rabbit and he looked at me as if I was evil personfied and was about to turn me into RSPCA but thenh lifted the lid on the box and the rabbit literally flew through the air and landed on a tray of instruments then attacked him when he tried to catch it H said 'aaaah, I see what you mean' We left it with the vet to 'sort out' and vowed never again would we be taken in by something that has to live in a hutch . My dd still has a faint scar along her cheek from where it attacked her. This rabbit was no bigger than my hand, so the thought of coming accross a giant one gives me the colliewobbles!

pearl Report post Posted May 15, 2008 *nods* I reckon if it got together with all its huge furry mates, they could take over the world .... Mind you we had a psychotic hamster once & that was teeny, nevertheless it bit right down to the bone of my index finger Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have this image of thousands of terrorised families confined to one room of their houses while Bugs commandeers the sofa & drinks all the beer! eeef it eez ze French wabbit eet weel steal all ze Wine, not ze beer, and it will steenk ze 'ouse out with ze garlic pong, ma oui! And eet will complain if eets carrots aren't glazed with ze beurr and fainly jopped shallots! Non! Sacre bleu! Mon dieu! Zoot allure! Quick - 'ide ze money under ze soap! We must fight back! Let's send a counter-attack of fine, upstanding (well, waddling) Aylesbury ducklings and beat the French at their own game. I don't mean ordinary ducks - I mean special, supersized irradiated ducks (you've seen 'attack of the fifty foot woman? well that was radiation wwhat did that it was... and 'Them' was giant irradiated ants... the French probably got the idea for the wabbits from this 1960's B-Movie called 'the Night of The Lepus') wot make Orville look like (erm... the only really ickle duck i can think of is the one in the Tom & Jerry cartoons who goes 'Mamma' when he hatches out and sees Tom - but i don't know his name. If you know his name insert it here, or if you can think of any other small ducks who might fight the bill (haha - sorry about that ) PM me and I will edit it in)... these will be dirt great big, tommy-gun toting killing machine ducks and they will tear into the ranks of these puny by comparison so called 'Giant' rabbits and make mincemeat (or, casserole, more likely) out of them... and we will taunt the silly French invaders from afar, raising our voices as one in the time honoured Elmer Fudd tradition, singing 'We want wabbit stew, wabbit stew, wabbit stew,, we want wabbit stew, waaaaaabbbit steeeeeeeeewwwww! ah ha ha ha ha' and then.............................. OUCH! i've pulled a muscle in my brain I'm going to have a lie down... Oh george.... He's my little bunny wabbit and i will hug him and kiss him and pet him......... (see, i love 'em really - even big fat french ones!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mumble Report post Posted May 16, 2008 I'm assuming all you bunny murderererers are familiar with the books of bunny suicides? Just in case you're not: Death by DVD player Death by drowning I think working out what happenns to Mr Wabbit in this one is in the ASD folk physics test!!! :ph34r: :ph34r: Now I have a question about death by rabbit eating - if the rabbit has literally just eaten a bunch of carrots and still has carrot stuffing, will you still die? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bard Report post Posted May 16, 2008 (edited) Now I have a question about death by rabbit eating - if the rabbit has literally just eaten a bunch of carrots and still has carrot stuffing, will you still die? Is it the lack of vegetables that causes the problem on an all-bunny diet, or the lack of essential fats? And you probably need to eat rabbit constantly and forever before the lack of nutritional balance gets you. I like rabbits, despite their habit of digging and scratching, I just prefer guinea pigs. But not capybaras or that other giant rodent species that was living wild in the fens until recently whose name escapes me...

baddad Report post Posted May 16, 2008 AHA I KNEW you were part of Chas and Dave I've got just one thing to asy to you (and suze)... You've got more rabbit than saintsbury's, why don't you give it a rest?... Hmmm... rabbit stuffed with carrots - I guess it would depend if you ate it's intestines or not? Personally, I'd be inclined to leave them on the side of the plate, but it takes allsorts... Now one I can answer... it it had been feasting on celery instead of carrots then verily you would snuff it, for celery, I was told at a party by a girl who came to regret it, is a "negative" food - one where you use more calories chewing and digesting it than you actually getfrom eating it. So... logically, if you ate a rabbit that had eaten celery exclusively then you'd be getting a 'double whammy' effect and would starve even quicker... But - would a rabbit eating nothing but celery starve to death, or does its size / metabolism mean it does get some nutritional value? Bard - i don't think you would have to eat rabbit forever to succumb, as you'd probably die of natural causes while the experiment was running! On QI they suggested that it has actually happened to fur trappers who only ate rabbit and slowly wasted away... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
