Wabbits - They are Wascally

, , ,

Okay- so I'm sitting here reading the news on different sites and wondering about what actually constitutes news; when I came across a little article about bunnies.

No, no, no not Playboy Bunnies although I can easily see the reason for having an interest in them. That Hugh has his own warren, lucky bugger. But no this isn't about that type of bunny.

Sorry guys.






This is about the small furry kind. some people eat them, others keep them as pets. Now as a pet, even I've had rabbits. You can't do a lot with them other than pet them, feed them and of course clean up after them and if you let them run loose - well you end up replacing a lot of wires.

This is about an obsession with bunnies and it isn't Hugh's variety.



An Oregon woman obsessed with bunnies has been ordered back behind bars after police found her in a hotel room with more than a dozen rabbits.

Washington County Circuit Judge Gayle Nachtigal ruled Thursday that 47-year-old Miriam Sakewitz violated her probation by having the rabbits. The judge sentenced the woman to 90 days in the county jail.

The woman's legal problems began in 2006 when police found more than 150 rabbits in her home and dozens more bunny bodies in freezers. She was arrested on accusations of animal neglect. After pleading no contest, she was placed on five years' probation, with one condition being that she stay away from rabbits.

Police arrested Sakewitz June 16 after she called a maintenance worker to her room in the Portland suburb of Tigard to fix a broken television set. The worker saw and smelled the rabbits, some of them hopping free.

Washington County probation officer Bob Severe said Sakewitz had undergone a court-ordered mental evaluation but that no treatment was recommended.

Batshit crazy - just my opinion.
