My daughter tearfully begged to keep the bunnies, but we already have a number of pets. I admired her concern for the bunnies but we could not keep them, so we took them to a rescue organization. <br>Several months later, we were delighted to discover that a little brown wild bunny was frequently in our yard. It turns out he lives under our garden shed. Yes, he ate off all my croci to the ground, but I figured that is a small price to pay for having such a sweet little resident. Since I won't allow pet bunnies at this point, how nice to have a bunny that I don't have to feed or take to the vet. True, we can't cuddle him like we would a pet bunny, but there is also something so nice about knowing that we have a yard that is welcoming to wild little creatures.

We have tons of regular wild rabbits, so many that I've had to resort to sprinkling organic powder around my flowers to keep the rabbits from eating them. I do still think they're cute though.
