Midnight, the Flemish Giant

Midnight, my rabbit.

"Are we there yet?" I moaned as we came to Tapawera. "Not yet", Mum said. As we neared the picnic area, I started to wonder what my really early birthday present was.

Mum said that dad would have to build something for it. We waited for a while and then a van parked behind us. Mum got out and asked me to bring the cage from the boot. I was thinking a puppy or a new kitten?

The lady opened the side of the van and pulled out a cage. I saw a small black thing crawling in the cage. The lady carefully pulled it out of the cage and gave it to me. I started to smile and felt really excited because the small black thing was a rabbit!

A Flemish Giant baby rabbit.

It was all black with a little patch of ginger and white on one foot.

When I got home I locked the dogs downstairs and I took the rabbit out of the cage.

I decided to call my rabbit Midnight because he is black and fluffy.
