George, British Giant Rabbit

This is George, the smaller (and more photogenic) of our two house rabbits. No, he hasn’t been photoshopped, although he is a bit foreshortened. That’s a normal-sized broom in the background - I’ve seen him pick up a broom by the handle and throw it to one side rather than walk around it. The two rabbits now weigh a shade under 30lbs, combined.

The rabbit is now 5.5 kilos (~12 pounds), and 83cm (2′8″) when stretched out. That is all.

Slipper, the day we first got her

Madeline just found the baby giant rabbit in the washing machine. Just a head sticking out.

She was evicting the socks; every few seconds another one would go flying.

I guess she’s big enough now that a washing machine looks like a reasonable place to hang out. That’s kinda scary, as she has another six weeks of growing to do. I wish she’d stop eyeing the kitchen bin so speculatively.
