But that's just the trouble. She already looks much younger than she
really is. You wouldn't believe how old she really is.

I fully agree with you. And hopefully your action will spare a lot of
cruelty to many other innocent bunnies.

Did you? Well done. In the meantime, my friend and I have been
working through the experience and trying to come to terms with the
horrendous implications. We have also paid attention to what the
Gospel requires of us. we find it difficult to be forgiving. We have
argued all the points through. It would be lovely to come up with a
glib formula to solve this. Maybe "Turn the other cheek" works for
some... I would never suggest it to someone who was actually
suffering.

But thanks for the nice idea.

Lovely. I think that's exactly what Jesus was saying. I think....
No, acherly, I don't think... (No, who care's what a rabit thinks
anyway?)

What the heck?
