Laurel n Hardy Posted December 16, 2009 Report Share Posted December 16, 2009 Tara Banana is bereaved. She accidentally dropped her beloved blue rubber ball down a rabbit hole this morning and it rolled away inside the hill too far for me to reach. There was a lot of puffing and protesting before we were allowed to go home and leave it behind. Try walking past the hole in a day or 2, rabbits are quite fussy and may well remove blue rubber ball... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cycas Posted December 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 I think all balls are beloved to Tara Banana, not just blue ones... Today, presumably prompted by the trauma of loss of her own ball, Tara Banana has started her own rescue. At the moment she is concentrating on the rising problem of homeless tennis balls roaming our lanes and parks. I do not think these homeless tennis balls have been flea treated or vaccinated, so I have cruelly insisted that they live in the garden: Tara would have liked them all to share her bed.

Ooh, you're a hard woman Victoria, personally I think you should just put them in boiling water or the washer & not make this poor girl suffer anymore loss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 Tara Banana I think you are a labrador in disguise! Rosie has been running a similar rescue for stray balls and would be happy to send her collection to you. The balls have been suitably quarantined in a plastic bin under the stairs (which has also safeguarded them from being striped of all covering by Rosie), so it would be quite safe to have them in your house Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacobean Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 Someone is going to have a smile on their face every day with this lovely girl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ContentCollie Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 I hope this lovely girl finds a home very soon. She sounds like my ideal dog, likes water - I used to take my boy swimming all the time, and loves to play ball - my border collie was toy mad. Remember the 'throw the ball, throw the ball!!' scene in the Eddie Murphy version of Dr Doolittle? that was my boy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cycas Posted January 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 The lovely Tara Banana is expecting visitors on Saturday - I've just seen the weather forecast though, please cross fingers, not only is it colder than my neighbour has ever seen (and he's lived in our village over 30 years), but we have snow forecast for tomorrow and Thurs. This is Cornwall! We aren't used to all this ice and snow! We should be able to give a note from our Mum and be excused! Tara Banana will be delighted, she loves snow, but on the whole, it would be nice to get her properly settled with her new owners, who sound lovely.

Greygal Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 How gorgeous she is! Even if the weather prevents her visitors from reaching you, I guess with a girl like her you won't be too sad to hold on to her for a few more days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
