A Scottish Fold and a Bunny Discovered a Shallow Creek Together

AI imagescottish foldlop-eared bunnyshallow creek

A shallow creek trickles through the yard, and two very surprised friends have discovered it at the same time. A silver tabby Scottish Fold crouches at the bank with one paw in the water, her round face thoughtful, and a cream lop-eared bunny stands beside her in the shallows, tiny drops flying around its feet. The grass is green and the evening light glows in the trees behind them. The bunny lifts one foot, shakes off the drops and looks up at the cat as if to ask what on earth this wet thing might be.

Most cats are not fans of getting wet, but many are fascinated by moving water. Splashing a paw in a stream or a dripping faucet is a common pastime. If your cat loves water, keep an eye on the depth and current, and dry her off afterward. Cats should not be left alone near deeper water or ponds.

Rabbits generally do not like to be wet. Their dense fur takes a long time to dry, and a wet rabbit can get chilled or stressed quickly. A rabbit should never be bathed in water unless a vet specifically recommends it, and any outdoor adventure should be brief, supervised and away from water that could run deep or cold.

The splashes sparkle, the creek keeps running and the two friends stand in the glow. A little water makes a day more adventurous. Curious friends make the best discoveries. A first splash is always a surprise.
