Rabbit Characteristics

Rabbits are good talkers! They also have a knack for being the right place at the right time and are often regarded as lucky - but it is more likely that they have been conscientious and their hard work has paid off! Rabbits and gentle and kind, and romantic. A rabbit will do anything for a peaceful life, as he or she hates arguments and bad tempers - but they also like a bit of gossip on occasion too!
