GOOD FRIENDS: Gwen Butler with young rabbits Cagney and Lacey at the Bunny Burrows aminal sanctuary in Richmond
TWO young rabbits that endured a difficult start in life have struck up a friendship at an animal sanctuary.
The rabbits - one wild and one domestic - are being looked after at Bunny Burrows in Richmond, where they have been named after 1980s police duo, Cagney and Lacey.
The wild rabbit, Lacey, was brought to the sanctuary after being found by a cat in Pateley Bridge at the end of January.
Cagney, a black and white domestic rabbit, was also found by a cat and arrived at the sanctuary in mid-March.
Gwen Butler, who runs Bunny Burrows, said: "It is quite unusual to have a pet rabbit brought in in this way.
"They are both a similar age and seem to get on very well."
