Hong Kong’s cafe scene has a new darling in town called ‘Rabbitland’, where customers can unwind in a cozy environment while mingling with some fluffy friends. Situated on the third floor of a busy high-rise in Causeway Bay, this cafe is home to 12 lovable bunnies who happily hop around and nibble on grass as guests sip on their tea. A haven for urbanites without the means to own a pet of their own, ‘Rabbitland’ offers a unique opportunity to bond with these cute creatures in a relaxed setting.
Are you feeling a little hungry? Guests are lovingly greeted by the cute rabbits residing at the famous attraction in Hong Kong called ‘Rabbitland’.
The coffee shop is home to twelve adorable bunnies who leisurely feast on grass while customers pamper them with love in between sips of their tea. In Hong Kong, rabbits are often forgotten animals, with many being abandoned each year. The bunnies at the cafe have all been abandoned by their previous owners and are not available for purchase. The goal of the cafe is to educate families who have the space to care for a rabbit on the responsibilities that come with it, a luxury in one of the world’s most densely populated cities. While ‘cat cafes’ are already popular in Hong Kong, this cafe is the first of its kind to focus on rabbits, taking inspiration from a similar concept in Japan. Eleven-year-old Natalie Chan can’t stop raving about the bunnies, admiring their soft fur and gentle nature as she dreams of having one as a pet. Visitors are required to follow a set of rules, including not picking up the bunnies or pulling their ears, in order to ensure the animals’ comfort and well-being.
The owner mentioned that the café offers a chance for people in Hong Kong who may not have enough room to own a pet, to still enjoy the company of one.
At present, the town is home to various cat cafes, but this latest addition is stepping outside the box as the inaugural cafe solely focused on rabbits.
He points out that going to a new location can help children gain a better understanding of the responsibilities involved in taking care of it.
