A pet rabbit named Cookie is back home after two days of adventure. The small brown rabbit escaped from his cage on Sunday evening, when someone left the door of the cage open.
Cookie belongs to the Cohen family from Springfield. “We looked everywhere — in the street, in the park, under every car,” said ten-year-old Nora Cohen. “I couldn't sleep that night.” The family put up signs with Cookie's photo on trees and in shops near their home.
On Tuesday morning, a teacher at a nearby school saw something surprising in the school garden. A little brown rabbit was eating the lettuce that the students had planted! The teacher remembered the signs and called the family.
Nora was very happy to see Cookie again. “He ate some of our lettuce, but that's OK,” laughed one of the students. Now the Cohen family checks the cage door twice every evening.
