What makes a rabbit such a good pet is the way each one has its individuality.

5 Reasons Bunnies Make The Best Pets

There is nothing sweeter than an animal excited to see you when you get home. When everything goes haywire in your life, your pet is your constant. I have had years with a pet and years without one. I owned many animals when I was younger. I had a cat, dog, fish, hamsters, mice, ducks, bunnies and a few others. However, a bunny is one of best-behaved pets along with one of the sweetest.

I am all for a puppy and the love of a dog. However, a bunny makes an exceptional pet and watching he/she grow into a rabbit is an experience unlike any other. Here are five reasons a bunny makes a good pet:


1. They are litter boxed trained upon birth.

Sure, they may need to learn where it is, how to get in and how to work it upon getting a new home. However, they naturally are extremely clean animals and they need to have their space be tidy. In the wild, they have their separate areas as well.

2. Bunnies are absolutely precious.

The way they look at you and wait for food or water. They truly depend on you and once you get to know them and you have that bond, you see the trust they have in you. The way they hop over to you and sit on your lap, they truly help with anxiety and keep your mind busy.

3. Bunnies spook easily but they also get excited easy.

Rabbits have extremely trait-based personalities. They vibe off of you in particular. If you are in a hyper mood, they will run with you and hop around. If you are feeling down, they will set their chins on the floor and sit there, hoping to be pet. They will close their eyes and be calm with you.

4. They love.

The single best reason for getting a pet is to have a little buddy. A partner with you at home. They are such lovable animals with such passion. They will lick you if they are feeling loving or they will thump if something isn't right. They are extremely well behaved even though some nights they are like infants if they wake you up because they want to play!

5. Last but certainly not least, they are fun!

Rabbits make you laugh and smile and truly there is not anything better. They jump, twirl and do flips in the air. Whether it be for attention or to get out their energy, we will never know.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
