A pet needs care

Read the story first.

Kit and NibblesKit's grown-up gave him a surprise: a tiny brown rabbit named Nibbles. "A pet needs care every single day," his grown-up said. Nibbles ate hay, fresh greens and a little carrot. Every morning Kit filled her bottle with fresh water. He swept out the old hay and put in fresh hay. Nibbles hopped and ran in the garden while Kit sat close by. One day Nibbles was very quiet and was not eating her hay. Kit told his grown-up straight away. His grown-up took Nibbles to the vet, a doctor just for animals. Soon Nibbles was hopping again.
