Rabbit Eats Spider (Plant, that is)
October 24, 2007
Finally—the perfect thing to unnecessarily blog about! Last night, I arrived home from work only to find that a very lovely spider plant had disappeared from the pot on my windowsill. Well, not exactly disappeared, more like eaten. It was no mystery who the culprit was, even before he came back for leftovers.
My sweet, adorable bunny rabbit Robbin is a firm believer that when he gets hungry, anything is fair game. Apparently this is why yesterday he took it upon himself to trim the hedge.
Robbin must have been a mountain goat in a former life, as no location is out of range as long as there are steps to get to it. I thought it would be safe to put the cat food kibbles in the bathtub. Then I thought it would be safe to put the cat food kibbles on top of my scanner on my side desk. I figure it’s only a matter of time until Robbin realizes that it won’t take much additional effort to go from the scanner to the opposite end of my regular desk, the current location of the cat food kibbles.
So the unnecessary blogging will come as we follow the rebirth of the shorn spider plant, this year’s Little Vegetation that Could.
(I’m very happy to say that Robbin doesn’t seem to be suffering any health repurcussions as a result of his marauding.)

Thank you for the posting! My rabbit Cinnabun just ate some spider plant too. I’m relieved to see she has healthy (and naughty) company.

Our House Rabbit Henry ate some spider plant and I was worried that it wouldnt be good for him – but he has been fine since. I am even tempted to let him have a leaf or two now and again! He seems to find a way to it, no matter where we put it!
