A couple of months ago I saw someone walking a very fat rabbit on a leash at the Saturday Market. I was able to identify it, as it’s not a rare pet. It was a bit strange though as they are not usually made a spectacle of in public by being put on a leash. Today I saw a real life Rikki Tikki Tavi walking down the east side of the river, along the Esplanade in a harness. I only know what it was, because I asked you, the dude out strolling with it. What is it that Walter Sobcchak said in The Big Lebowski? “no keeping amphibious rodents in urban parks”? I know it is not the same thing as a ferret, but I really wish you had been dressed as one of the Nihilists, clad in vinyl. Thank you for not asking for my toe, or the whites. And, thank you for taking your furry friend out for a trot.
