The Abyssinian and the Bunny Took the Best Seat in the Sunflowers

AI imageabyssinian catlop-eared bunnysunflowers

Sunflowers rise on every side, and in the middle of them sits a ruddy Abyssinian with her ears pricked and her golden eyes looking off into the distance. Beside her, a tan lop-eared bunny sits very still, ears hanging and nose twitching. The two look like a pair of lookouts, perched in the golden garden. A wooden fence and a few bright yellow petals add color to the scene.

Abyssinians are athletic, curious cats that love to explore and climb. They are quick, intelligent and often form strong bonds with their families. Rabbits are curious too, and both animals like a good lookout spot. Gardens can be wonderful for pets, but sunflowers and other plants may attract bees and bugs, and shade and water are a must on warm days. Rabbits can overheat quickly, so a shady spot is important. Cats and rabbits can be friends, but their interactions should always be supervised, and the rabbit should always have an escape route. If you have questions about outdoor safety, your vet can help.

The Abyssinian looks regal, and the bunny looks ready to follow her lead. The sunflowers lean in, as if listening in on their plans. It is a golden afternoon with nowhere to be and two friends to share it with. A bee drifts by, a petal falls and neither one flinches, since sitting quietly together is clearly something they have practiced.
