Here’s a yarn.

This is the strangest thing as a rabbiter, hell, as a human I’ve ever had (contains swearing)

So, at fuck off o’clock in the middle of the night last night, I’m out for the count. A couple of gins before bed and life is good.

Fast asleep until there was a hell of a racket in the middle of the night. All the dogs started nutting off (that’s barking for the greenhorns)

I got a hell of a fright! Laying there thinking ratdog, that’s the dog, Zit, that loving smashing rats, had trouble getting a rat and had knocked something over.

After a bit, I thought, well, might as well nip out for a piss and grab a smoke from the car since I’m awake.

I wondered back in, flicked the light on, and lay on the bed having said smoke and checked the clock. 0435. That’s 4:30 in the fucking morning for the townies. I looked over, and there’s Frost, number one rabbit dog looking past me.

So I turned around because I always trust the dog. Sure enough, there’s a fucking possum on top of the shelves!

Turns out somehow it got past inside dogs, climbed up and knocked a boot of the top shelf, which is where the noise came from, which was nothing compared to the racket the now wide awake dogs made.

Now, I had two choices,  flick the possum of the shelf and let the dogs sort it, or leave it to its own devices and it can slide off.

Option one would be very messy in the bedroom, and stink like fuck, so I went with option two.

Everything settled down, and back to sleep we all went. Got up this morning and put the boot back on the shelf, had a quick look where said possum was last seen, not there so off to work we went…Part one of two.

Little pig

I caught a glimpse in the distance of an animal moving. At a glance it looked like a little pig but it turned out to be a Wolf, the little fat rabbit dog. 😂 She is on a serious diet at the moment 🙄 The dirty fat little ratbag that she is.

Cool down

This time of year is tricky with the heat, but if you can keeping the water up to the rabbiting pack they can handle it. The heat in Central Otago can be problematic for the dogs so it pays to be careful with them.

Well that came around fast

It seems us rabbiters have been busy enough, the year is about smoked already and I’ve been very slack on here.

So here’s a photo of the current load of pups on the ground, and wee crackers they are too! I’m going to give this litter away because Xmas and times are tough for some. Hopefully they make some kids very happy.
