Bunnies

In anticipation of the Easter holiday — and treats — put down that giant chocolate rabbit and press play on these videos instead. Unlike your judgmental cats or sweet, welcoming dogs, bunnies have a distinct appeal that's hard to put your finger on. Perhaps it's because they're normally so placid that when they do something out of the ordinary, we explode with "oohs" and "awws." Whether it's a bunny eating a flower Thumper-style, bunnies competing in a show-jumping course, or just a bunny in a bowl, our minds are blown that they're doing something other than pooping. Click through to see our roundup of the best bunny videos on YouTube and treat yourself guilt-free!

Besides Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny is perhaps the most famous of fictional holiday characters. Many of us believed in him until we reached kindergarten . . . some of us a few years longer (sure, I'll own up to it!). But besides being the bearer of Easter treats, what do you really know about this rascally rodent? We've rounded up some fun facts about Easter's cutest representative and some adorable photos that will make you want to believe all over again!

Happy Easter! What better way to celebrate this bunny-centric holiday than with this ball of cuteness? This little gal is a dwarf breed of rabbit known as "teddywzerg" in German, according to her owner, but she's very similar to a dwarf lionhead bunny. Lionhead rabbits are such a new breed, they're not even recognized by the American Rabbit Breeders' Association. But something tells me this might be their year! Keep clicking for more furry cuteness.

With Easter approaching, I have my mind on hip holiday decorating ideas. My memories of the Spring holiday are rampant with floral Laura Ashley dresses and plenty of pastels, but I'm hoping to have a more contemporary Easter this year. Rabbits and dyed eggs should be present at every Easter fete, but there's no reason they need to be trad. Instead, outfit your interiors with these rad modern rabbits!

It's Petfinder's Adopt the Internet Day, and if you're not looking for dog or cat, why not adopt one of these other fun animals? From bunnies to birdies to horses, I've got all the stats on the less-than-typical pets up for adoption. Check 'em out! And be sure to see all the pets here, there's sure to be one with your name on it!

While dogs and cats are adorable pets, don't forget there are other furry, feathery, and scaly friends high on the cute scale as well! From hedgehogs to parakeets, I've rounded up some cuddly pics of exotic pets.

Get the Easter holiday hopping with bunnies! We showed you all types of excellent eggs for filling your children's baskets, but now it's time to bring on the bunnies. Aside from the big guy who will munch on carrots and leave your kiddos sugary loot behind, here are our 10 favorite rabbit finds!
