Reminder: Check Your Gun Safe for Lost Pets

[majspud]

Putting the rabbits to bed tonight and couldn't find one. She was in the last place I looked - in the gun safe - which was closed, but unlocked. She has squirmed in the back of the right side with the Brits, Gew's and the K43. Fortunately she did not chew the rifle stocks or leather, but she did a number on the felt floor and padding. I covered the new hole with one of the humidity absorbing pillows.

Sneaky critters.

Damn I hate when that happens.....

Boy, if a rabbit can chew its way into your gun safe, I'd be concerned how secure it was. Unless of course it was the rabbit from Monty Python.

Seriously, glad you found the fuzzball.

If I had a nickel for every time I found a rabbit in my gun safe, I would have no money...

 

[gasaman]

No rabbits allowed in my bedroom.

Obviously that's her "safe place"...

 

[martin08]

That's a very bunny story.

Obviously that's her "safe place"...

But, what was her "trigger"?

Guns tend to multiply on their own. No help needed.

 

[martin08]

Not sure that this is so unusual. Lots of folks store Hoppes in their safe.

Run away!

I can see how this situation might pose a risk to both pets and collectibles. But the members have offered much good feedback to chew on.

Edit to add: Don't jump to any conclusions.

Before doing any reloading, a close inspection of pellets would be in order.

A friend of mine has a mechanic's light he leaves powered on in his roll-away. It's actually there to keep condensation away, (along with some dessicant), but when questioned, he explained that his tools were afraid of the dark. Perhaps you should install a night light in your safe for your rabbits?

Suggestions like these are invaluable. Keep 'em coming. I'm all ears.

Except for a little bit of nose up front, I'm assuming.

That, and the tail end follow up.

This thread is puntastic!

Where else can you get more entertainment fur your money?

Only counts if it's fluffy.

and no, I really REALLY REALLY don't want to know!

Great bore cleaner for a cannon.

 

[martin08]

See those white spots on the bottom door frame? You should clean your safe. It's getting a little long in the tooth.


Edit to add: A whisker broom won't do.

I do my best to fur-ther the intellectual aspect of the MilSurp forum.

One of our cats is fading rapidly with kidney issues and has lost 1/2 his body weight. He has a tendency to mark a lot objects.

you're all laughing, but you have to admit thats one smart bunny...

if you where out hunting wabbit, it would be the last place you would look.

Yes, very sneaky. You should dangle a carrot to discourage this type of behavior.

Wascally wabbits...

I'm not so sure that we can draw conclusions as to the motivation of the bunny. He may have had justifiable reasons for his actions. But we need more information. Details are a bit fuzzy.
