Rabbit has own bedroom and is pursuing modeling career
    2020-12-18  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

A RABBIT is so big that it has its own bedroom and is now pursuing a career in modeling.

Lyn Hobson, from North Lincolnshire, the United Kingdom, said her bunny Jester, who weighs 20lbs (9 kilograms), is like a child to her and is “spoiled rotten” — enjoying the comfort of three beds dotted around her house.

The proud owner has also created a social media channel for her 18-month-old rabbit, where she posts candid snaps of him.

It’s led to him modeling for the front cover of an educational title and as the lead character in a children’s book.

But Hobson is hoping this is just the start and has signed Jester up to a website that could see him get more work.

The 60-year-old said: “He’s unexpectedly a bit of a celebrity in the rabbit world after all this.

“Hopefully he can do a bit more modeling work next year, especially around Easter, that could be quite busy I think.”

Hobson, a mother of one, who lives with husband and ex-serviceman Peter, bought the bunny at just a few weeks old April 1, 2019, which is why he’s called Jester.

And Hobson said he’s the best.

“Jester is the best pet anyone could wish for,” said the retired chef.

“His character is absolutely lovely, he’s very loving, calm and well-behaved. I love him so much and so spoil him rotten, he’s like a child to me really.

“Everything that I do he follows me along, whether it’s watching television or doing the washing up.

And while most rabbits are kept in a hutch, Jester is allowed to roam the house and, Hobson said, is so well trained that he wipes his paws when he comes in from the garden.

The Continental Giant, also known as the German Giant, is one of the largest breeds of rabbit and was originally bred for meat.
