Ding dong Neroli on high

On Christmas Day 2001, two days after we’d adopted Neroli, we had a radio request played for her on Classic FM: 

"Merry Christmas to you, here’s one from L in Kent, who says ‘please play a piece of music for my wife D, who’s 7 months pregnant with our first child, and for our houserabbit, Neroli, whom we adopted from the RSPCA on Sunday 23rd December, who appears to have been born without a tail’". 

We did indeed think Neroli had been born without a tail, but the vet confirmed she had a very small tail, which was hardly visible!
