This is my post for #freewriters 2592 prompt trick him hosted by 
Rudy has to be the most spoiled wild rabbit. He knows what he likes and doesn't like, and he is not afraid to tell me when he does not like something or if he likes one thing better than the other.
Not long after I made this box his house he chewed a little window in the bottom corner that faces in the direction where he can see us.
Every afternoon I clean his cage, he hears me and sticks his nose out of the hole he made, and waits for me to put his food in the cage.
Wait that is not what he wants, he wants me to give him a carrot, it will hold him over until it is time to come out of his house for the night. Rudy will yank the carrot out of my hand with the power of one of those bank machines that sucks the tube with your money in it and go back in his house with it.
One day I thought I would trick him and give him a piece of celery instead of a carrot. He got mad, real mad. His house started bouncing up and down and he came running out his door and boxed my hand with his two front feet. He reminded me of a kangaroo boxing, bam bam bam and it was over and he was back in his house. I traded the celery for a carrot and all was well in Rudy World.
I have two plastic jar lids in his cage, I use them to put pieces of apple or other snacks for him. I only give him 2 slices of apple in the morning. I give it to him while I am making my coffee. If I forget and I sit back down to drink my coffee he will take one of the plastic lids and make them bang on the floor of his cage. He does this until I give him his apple. When I give him the apple he makes some sort of noise, it is a weird noise that I can not explain the sound, between a purr and a rumble. I never knew rabbits could make sounds...
My Son did not get out of jail, they dropped the drug charges but he had a failure to appear charge from back in August, he got caught picking palmetto berries on State land and did not go to court. The judge gave him 90 days with 26 days already served, he has 64 more to go. I hope he can do some heavy thinking about his life while he is in there.
