Lesson in Electrical Engineering

Upon inspection of our freezer, the repairman told Robert: "It's a good thing your rabbit chewed the white wire and not the black one."

The voltage in the white wire is basically zero. The black wire can give you a nasty shock (and electrocute a rabbit).

So remember this, little bunnies:

Chewing wire
Can be dire:
If you must bite,
Nip the white.
If you chomp black,
It will fight back;
Don't make this chew
The last thing you do.

Good wire-biting job, Leo!

So what's the skinny on the repair?

They're having to order a part to replace the bitten cord; it should be installed by the time I get back from Colorado.
