Ever lost a cuddly toy?

One Irish hotel found a toy rabbit and wanted to reunite it with its owner, but while they were waiting for the owner to get in touch they gave the toy rabbit to few treats, all of which was documented on the hotel's Facebook page.

As the owner didn't come forward on the day it was lost it had to stay the night at the hotel, so obviously they put it up in a hotel room.

(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)0; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); > Have to stay in Adare Manor tonight, hopefully my owner will come to collect me tomorrow> > > Posted by

The next morning before breakfast the bunny was seen 'chilling' with cucumbers covering its eyes.

(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)0; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); > Chilling before breakfast> > > Posted by

Then it helped Claire in concierge.

(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)0; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); > Claire in Concierge is helping me find my family, having fun at Adare Manor> > > Posted by

And they even treated it to what looks like a rather delicious afternoon tea!

(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)0; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); > Getting used to this, afternoon tea at Adare Manor> > > Posted by

Next it was outside for a post-tea walk with Claire.

(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)0; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); > Off to stretch my legs with Claire after afternoon tea..> > > Posted by

By Sunday (3rd January) evening the owners of the little bunny had been found, but it would be Monday before they could come and collect it.

(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)0; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); > Yippee.. I am going home. My owners have been found, I get to stay another night in Adare Manor and then home for a...> > > Posted by

But, there was time for one more look out of the hotel window before the last night at the hotel.

(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)0; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); > Home to Nenagh across the river tomorrow, still having fun at Adare Manor> > > Posted by

Time for bed.

(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)0; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); > Good night from Adare Manor, tomorrow I go home, had lots of fun & everybody looked after me so well, going to miss this place> > > Posted by

This morning (Monday 4th January) before the owners came to collect the bunny there was time for one last treat - a massage from Kate.

(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)0; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); > Just enough time for a massage from lovely Kate in the treatment rooms before I go home. It's been a wonderful holiday but I can't wait to see my owners again!> > > Posted by

Finally the bunny was reunited with its owner Kate on Monday. The little girl seemed very happy to have her bunny back and begin some more adventures.

(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)0; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); > Reunited at last ... yippee! I got lots of lovely hugs from my pretty owner Kate and now we're heading home for our next adventure. Thanks everyone for following my amazing trip at Adare Manor!> > > Posted by
