Pernod had one of her 'moments' last night. Theday had been fairly normal - she and Perry dozed under the settee mostof the day, coming out for occassional cuddles and food, then out for abit of grass cutting (it's great not having to mow the lawn veryoften). As evening closed in, the rain clouds came over, and Perry cameinside. Not so Pernod. The heavens opened and there she was,in the middle of the lawn, getting soaked. We tried to get her in, butshe loves the rain, so we went to try and get her. So she runs underthe decking, where she knows we can't get her. As soon as we cameinside. there she was out in the rain, so we'd go back out and she'dbinky and go under the decking. (Y'know I think that a binky is notonly a sign of joy, but also a rude bunny gesture to ushumans
Anyhow, after 40 minutes of this, and laying on our stomachs in thepouring rain, shining a torch under the decking, trying to coax (HerePernie, what's this YUM YUM)!, threaten (Pernod, GET YOUR LITTLE BUTOUT HERE NOW!!) plead, (Please, Pernie, Mommys tired - and very wet) wedecided we play her at her own game. We pretended to go inside (SSHHH!She'll hear us) and when she came out, we were ready. So, eventually,at 11.30pm we got her. Then it was drying her off, and she went to bedvery happy, Thank you. Won't say what her Daddy said to her, as it wasafter midnight when we got to bed.
Ps, We have got her in now, even though it's not raining tonight
