This is ( was) my rabbit ollie    

He is now 6 feet under behind the back of my dads shed though, he got maggots in the summer and died    he was fabalous though, he used to play footy and everything.

I want to get a new pet but I don't know what to get. Something easy to look after. and not goldfish because their food stinks.

Yep it is my rabbit, he looks quite similar to Ollie.
This is a bigger version.

 Rabbits are good to eat....bit of a neglected food source really as they're relatively easy to keep and.. breed.....well, like rabbits.

 Also you can make clothes out of the fur.

 Reg please don't tell me you just said rabbits are good to eat.  Poor little bunnys.

 The Normans were big on rabbit eating and medieval England abounded with warrens or sometimes called pillow mounds which were used for keeping rabbits for food....on Kilpeck church in Herefordshire, can be found the oldest  representation of the bunny in England

 A keeper of rabbits was known as a warrener....a surname still found today.

 There are some other interesting representations at Kilpeck

I had a Guinea pig, but it died, will post a pic of it soon.

 Did you eat it?

 Here's a recipe for fried Guiea Pig

    Fried Guinea Pig (Ayacucho-style)

1 guinea pig, de-haired, gutted, and cleaned

1/2 c. flour

1/4 - 1/2 t. ground cumin

salt and black pepper to taste

1/2 c. oil

Pat dry the skin of the guinea pig and rub in the cumin, salt, and pepper. Preheat oil. Dust the carcass with the flour and place it on its back in the oil, turning to cook both sides. Alternately, the guinea pig can be cut and fried in quarters.

Serve with boiled potato or boiled manioc root, and a salad of cut tomatoes and slivered onions bathed in lime juice and a bit of salt. Have cold beer on hand.
