He is digging like mad in the garden everyday and lots of big holes are appearing. Don't worry none of the holes are near a fence and he is very secure in the garden. Anyway it would take him many days to dig a hole out of the garden. There have been a few mice join us over the last three months and its been a problem keeping them out of his hutch. I have now fixed an extra layer of wire over his hutch door and this seems to have stopped them for the time being.
Chops still seems a happy bun and is great company day and night.
He follows me everywhere and looks mortally hurt when I have to close a door and leave him outside the room. He has the run of most rooms but sometimes its difficult to have him in here with the computer and stuff as he nibbles my feet while I'm working. Its now the end of September 2000 and me and Chops have had a nice summer together. He recently found a honeysuckle bush and loves the leaves. Its still just us two and no other buns yet, but he seems happy enough.
