Bluebell, the enormous rescue rabbit, has picked up some interesting habits from her Yorkshire Terrier companions. At three feet long, she lounges in her own dog bed, obediently comes when called, and patiently waits by the front door for her owner. Despite her impressive size and weight of one and a half stone, this seven-year-old Great Continental rabbit often fools people into thinking she’s a canine until they notice her distinctive long floppy ears.

The bunny, who measures three feet in length, has her very own cozy dog bed, responds when called, and patiently waits for her owner by the front door.
Carol Murray, a professional dog groomer, shared that Bluebell, her pet rabbit, is quite assertive around other dogs. Bluebell was rescued from a home where she lived in a cage with six Yorkshire terriers and ten rats.
Carol mentioned that Bluebell loves snacking on kale and Rich Tea biscuits, even though she sometimes sneaks treats from the dinner table like a mischievous puppy. Carol, who is 45 years old and resides in Barnston, Merseyside, expressed her deep affection for Bluebell, whom she has had for three years.
Describing Bluebell’s behavior, Carol said that the rabbit often follows her around the house and enjoys lounging on the couch. Many visitors mistake Bluebell for a dog due to her close bond with Carol. Bluebell has her own dog bed and even a bedroom to call her own.
Carol shared an amusing anecdote about Bluebell’s interactions with dogs, recalling how she would boldly confront a Dalmatian owned by her previous caregiver, chasing it around with great enthusiasm.

The Great Continental rabbit, who is now seven years old, has grown significantly in size over the past three years and currently weighs one and a half stone. Despite losing her eyesight recently due to old age, she is adapting well to her new reality. Bluebell, as she is named, used to wear little outfits, but as she has doubled in size, they no longer fit her.
Rescued from a chaotic environment where she shared a cage with six Yorkies and ten rats, Bluebell has had a rough past – she had a hole in one ear, likely from a cigarette burn, and part of her other ear pecked off by a parrot. Nevertheless, she remains incredibly friendly. Her owner, Ms. Murray, shared that whenever she returns home, Bluebell hears her at the door and starts flicking her ears in excitement, which Ms. Murray finds adorable. Despite a challenging start in life, Bluebell is thriving and bringing joy to those around her.

Ms. Murray used to dress Bluebell in cute outfits that no longer fit her now that she has grown bigger. Bluebell is described as a laid-back dog who loves lounging on the sofa and sneaking food from the dinner table. Ms. Murray shared Bluebell’s dietary preferences, mentioning her breakfast of Shredded Wheat or banana and sultanas, lunch consisting of black kale, red hay, and pellets, and her favorite Rich Tea biscuit as an evening snack. Despite having her own food, Bluebell still enjoys stealing food, especially when she sees others eating. Ms. Murray recalled Bluebell’s habit of swiping McDonald’s chips from her previous owner and her love for Jaffa Cakes, even though she can’t actually eat them. Bluebell has a particular fondness for radishes and broccoli but dislikes cucumber. In addition to food thievery, Bluebell has a mischievous side, having escaped to a nearby farm where she was found lounging amongst horses. Despite her escapades, Bluebell is typically relaxed and enjoys sitting in her favorite spots in the back garden. Everyone adores Bluebell, with Ms. Murray declaring her the best animal she has ever had.
