    We went back in 1986 and it was expensive, but I was visiting my girlfriend in college, so we splurged and...

     

    ...and thought it was a ripoff. Oh well, the indiscretions of youth can't ALL be wasted on sex and wild living. Sometimes you have to blow your gas money back to Portland and ask Mom for more. icon_frown.gif

    First, grab a cottonball and squirt a little starting fluid on it and shove that under the rabbits nose. You might have to hang onto it a little while as they tend to squirm a touch.

     

    After they have calmed down, take a sharp knife and make a slit length ways in the lower half of their ears. If the rabbit is not knocked out, this is the time you will find out. Apply more starting fluid as needed, if needed.

     

    This will allow you enough space to be able to pull their back legs up and poke their feet through the holes. Pull until the knee joint comes through the slit and this will lock the back legs forward and keep the ears down.

     

    Slide the rabbit into the ammo box with more starting fluid on the cottonball and this should hold the rabbit for a day or so. Depending on how tight the can is.

     

    You might have to leave the cache goodies in a bag next to the ammo can until the rabbit is removed.

    Wouldn't a food processor be a lot easier?

    Did the wire hanger come in handy when he locked himself out of his bike?
