Chiku ki yaadein..... :)

Chiku & Miku hamare ghar ke pahle khargosh the.Guddu & Bhatkun! please correct me if i am making sm mistake.we got them from chitkohra bazaar in mumma's typical leather basket ,way back in the springs of 1996, i hardly remember.Years passed by as it usually does.Chiku and miku grew with us just like our 6th and 7th family member.Summers, great rains, chilling winters for were all alike when in games of different sorts. We often procrastinated our daily monotonous work and evening plays in trying to catch hold of these two cotton balls,
running helter skelter. I was our jolly time to just see them from some distance,lying on top of one another and breathing rapidly.When anyone of Chiku or Miku was busy grazing the grass and other came from behind hitting with his soft paws,they were to jump high in the air out of complete instinct threat of the predators.
The small shaded cottage in the Big campus that we had often overflowed with stirrups of soft green grasses.Chiku and Miku were the prince of this hinterland.We got a custom made Rabbit house for these two notorious beings.They used to love each other endlessly.Chiku infact was more sensible of the two, circling around Miku whenever Miku crossed his limits.Sometimes Chiku was swept away in Miku's Adventures.Once in the morning we were very upset to find both of them missing and were about in a state when somebody from more than 200 yards away our rented home informed that they have found our pets playing in an abandoned house.

Chiku and Miku often used to get in the Genda shrubs to have those flavoured leaves.So artistically they were able to hide themselves whenever U.N.Rai was to have his evening or morning walk.One thing I clearly remember is that we never let them feel incaged.They enjoyed their freedom more than any pet animal does.We never caught them by their ears as we thought, it was painfull for them.They, most of the time used to have a paste of gram powder,milk and sugar which is a delicacy that rarest of the rare pet enjoy. We were always concerned about their protection from all wandering predators around our home.There were hell lot of...
