i do not own anything. S.D. Smith owns the characters and the concept and format are from opera13's fan fictions from 2010. If anyone has a problem with me using opera13's ideas and format, please tell me and I will delete this. Otherwise, enjoy!
Heather Longtreader Joveson
Owner's Guide and Maintenance Manual
Congratulations!
You are now the proud owner of a life-size HEATHER! In order to obtain top performance from your rabbit, please follow the procedures detailed in this manual to use your Natalian to her full potential.
Your HEATHER should arrive fully assembled. Please check that you have all her accessories (see specially chosen list below) and that you have been issued with the edition of HEATHER that you ordered, as there are four:

(b) Edition II HEATHER (copyright Smith, 2016)
(c) Edition III HEATHER (copyright Smith, 2018)
(d) Edition IV HEATHER (copyright Smith, 2020)

ACCESSORIES
Your HEATHER unit, regardless of the edition, will be shipped fully clad to you in a protective crate. Once you have determined that you have been issued the correct Edition, please check to make sure that you have also received the following accessories:
a staff
a torch necklace
a medical satchel
Your HEATHER unit will arrive to you in her factory condition of slightly travel-stained.
OPERATING PROCEDURE
Your HEATHER has been designed to be user-friendly and efficient. Her controls are voice-activated. Please state your instructions clearly in English or Natalian.
Your HEATHER can be utilized in several capacities about the house:
Nurse:
Your HEATHER is an exceptional nurse and will take excellent care of any injured or sick people around.
Story Teller:
HEATHER is extremely talented at telling stories. She will keep children (and adults, for that matter) occupied for hours listening to her tales.
Writer:
If you have anything you want written down, family stories, etc., look no farther than HEATHER. She will chronicle everything for you.
COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER MODELS
You will find that your HEATHER is compatible with most other models, especially SMALLS, EMMA, PICKET, and the rest of the Longtreader models. She is not compatible with the MORBIN model, REDEYE, GARTEN, or any BIRD OF PREY or WOLF models. She can also be slightly averse to KYLEN.
PRECAUTIONS
Do not expose your HEATHER to fire, strong magnetic fields, electricity, excessive humidity, Birds of Prey, or Wolves.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q. HEATHER seems to be attracted to the tree house in my backyard. Why?
A. It probably reminds her of her elm tree home.
Q. My son came home today with a skinned knee. HEATHER immediately began treating it, all the while muttering about how "she'd get him. He can't do this!" I tried explaining to her that he fell off his bike, but she won't listen.
A. She is thinking of how PICKET was scraped up by his training with HELMER and assumes that the same thing happened here. Just let her treat him and when she finds that it doesn't happen frequently, she will forget about it.
Q. A neighbor asked HEATHER to go exploring in a cave with her. Should I let her go?
A. No, unless you want HEATHER to get stuck while hungry wolves come toward her.
FINAL NOTE
Due to the mortal nature of HEATHER, you will find that you have not been issued with a guarantee. However, if she is taken very well care of, and has had no fatal contact with Birds of Prey or Wolves, HEATHER should live for some fifty plus years. Those owners who are already used to the 6,342,000 month extended warranties issued with other products may find this rather disappointing; console yourself with the knowledge that HEATHER units are much less expensive to maintain than previous units, as they do not require top-of-the-line hygiene products, or really any care at all.
