🐰 Amanda K’s favorite little boy is Caesar the rabbit. She found him on her porch Easter weekend 5 years ago. He got his name because her daughter Giovanna used romaine lettuce to lure him inside the house and his survival instinct was overruled by his love of “Caesar Salad.” Hence he got his very cute name. And yes, that’s him nestled into his favorite spot among the stuffed animals. |  |
