Come Outside: Series 2: Rabbits

Auntie Mabel is looking after her sister Edie’s rabbit Bobby. Pippin is sulking as Bobbie is getting all the attention. Bobby is staying in a hutch in the garden, with a fence round it. Auntie Mabel changes the straw in the hutch and Pippin begins to make friends with the rabbit. They fly to the countryside where they see some wild rabbits and visit some baby rabbits in a Nature Park. When they get home, Auntie Mabel feeds Bobby with a meal of dandelion and cabbage leaves. But she leaves the gate open and Bobby hops out of his enclosure and into the garden. Auntie Mabel tells the story ‘Brer Rabbit and the Well’. She returns to the hutch to check on Bobby and is horrified to find him gone. But eventually she finds him – curled up with Pippin in her basket!
