I believe it’s safe to say, yes. We must all hail this furry mammalian until its winter spell is complete so that we can venture out of our properties in T-shirts and shorts. Or, perhaps, we could just wear winter coats like we have been all winter and ignore the little varmint.

In related news, I may conduct a scientific test on the foresight capabilities of small mammals using Baxter and see if I can get an accuracy rate nearing that of an 8-ball. Or not, you know, depending on how the day goes and depending on whether or not I want to anger the rabbit.

If you’ve never seen a truly contented rabbit, this is it. Not only is he laid down in this, but he was ignoring me sticking a camera in his face. This was taken flash-off, with a light sensitivity eight-times better than any human it’s a little cruel to flash them when they’re falling asleep in a darkened room.

There’s also a hint of his paper genocide to the right of the picture. Rabbits love to kill tissue paper, it’s like their version of catnip.
