Categories

Safe at Home
All of us are spending more time at home staying safe. We want to see how your bunny likes you being around the house more. Maybe they are helping you work remotely as your new co-worker? Are they showing you how to have fun at home by watching movies and snacking? Show us some pics of how your bunny is helping you spend your days.
​
Cutest Couple
Are your bonded bunnies in love? Do you have some BBFFs (best bunny friends forever)? We want to see some buns hanging out and super hoppy with each other.
​
Happy Home
We all love making sure our bunnies have the best living arrangements. Whether it’s unlimited delicious hay, toys, cottontail cottages, castles or a special space!  Let us see your bunny’s habitat and how they are living the good life.

​Disapproving Bun
Does your bunny sometimes give you that look? Did you displease your furry one with the amount of treats you provided? Maybe you didn’t give enough kisses or maybe you gave too many kisses (how is that even possible?).  Show us your bunny putting their big bunny foot down and demanding you hop up and realize who is in charge.
​
Hopping Holidays
Celebrating any holiday with a bunny is magical. It could be a Booo Bunny on Halloween, Rudolph the Red Nosed Rabbit or Red, White and Bun on the 4th. Enter any holiday-themed pic of your bun hopping it up during special times of the year.
​
Fabulous Flops
Who doesn’t love a bunny flop! Just knowing a bunny is in complete happiness will make anyone feel buntastic!! Being able to create a comfortable and relaxed environment for your bun is a great achievement. Feel proud and submit a pic of your contented cottonball.
