Q. Tell us a little bit about your two gorgeous rescue bunnies featured in this issue
A. So we met a lady at my sister’s 18th birthday party. She has her own non-profit organization called “Little Horse on the Prairie”. She brought all these animals for us to play with, and we came to find out they’re all rescues. She had baby bunnies that she rescued that needed homes. So we decided to take two of the bunnies. They are the sweetest creatures ever, they are actually like little puppy dogs. They lick us, come to us when we call them, and sit on our laps.
