Our Rabbit-Proof Fence


True to his word, Wendell rabbit-proofed our fence. It's worked so far . . . haven't seen Damn Rabbit since he put up the barrier.

I'm worried that Damn Rabbit is still somehow gonna get through so I started reading up on how to scare rabbits away.  I bought these two pinwheels from WalMart today. I was surprised that they weren't in the toy department, but were with the garden supplies instead.  Makes me think that they must be used to chase other stuff away too. I wonder what though.  I doubt we have a rabbit problem here . . . EXCEPT FOR ME.

I'm also gonna look for rubber snakes the next time I go to the swap meet. Wind chimes and the scent of stinky shoes are also supposed to deter rabbits.

Erick, Kona does head straight for the fence when I let him out.

Funny Susan!

You're right Anon. I should leave him outside longer.

I know Kat!!
