Yes, this is a real thing.
We went to Chiang Mai to meet friends currently living in China, and the bunny cafe was just too tempting to turn down.
The cafe part is simple: you buy over-priced, over-sweetened coffees that Thailand is famous for. Then, you head upstairs to enjoy a “show” of sorts and a chance to see over thirty bunnies!
First, they make you wear slippers to keep it clean. Bunny slippers, of course.
We all sat around where we could reach the bunnies to pet them and they could jump into our laps for treats. They showed us many different breeds—
Some with long ears
Some that do tricks! (While the photo isn’t great, he’s lifting weights!)
And some that were HUGE—that’s a seven kilo bunny!
One of the breeds is called a Rex, and this is mini Rex. So this photo is for Stephen’s dad!
We really had so much fun. Admittedly, I might have enjoyed it the most. The bunnies are so well trained and so well cared for—and the cutest animal ever!
I know you all want to come visit us now, and don’t worry—we’ll go back with you! Stephen has offered a deal that we visit the bunny cafe monthly in exchange for not buying another little market bunny! 😂
