Puzzled.

Ernie is puzzled. Very puzzled.

For nearly five months he and his friend Bert have been inseparable. But tonight they are apart.

Ernie is in hastily found temporary accomodation. Bert and HER babies have remained in the hutch. (The sexing of rabbits is often unreliable, we are NOW told).

Ernie showed every sign of wanting to be a good parent but the internet is adamant - for now he must live on his own.
