Update: The pop-up bunny café has had to postpone opening due to negative preconceptions about the welfare of the rescue rabbits. To clarify, the pop-up bunny cafe was to be an educational event.

Animals are seemingly becoming more common in public cafes. We now have a cat emporium, and recently enjoyed a bar where dogs serve you beer.

Now rabbits are hopping onto the scene as a place called Bunny Blossom seems to be gearing up to open in Islington next week.

According to its Facebook page, the pop-up bunny café will run from June 5 to July 11, inviting the public to a spot of afternoon tea, accompanied by of a variety of fluffy, rescued rabbits.

Some of these rabbits need urgent rehousing, so Bunny Blossom is offering café-goers the opportunity to adopt some of the bunnies in store, while experts will be on hand to give tips and tricks on how to look after them.

Rest assured the rabbits have access to fresh air and plenty of room, so should enjoy the experience as much as their human visitors. They'll certainly get plenty of attention.

Places at the pop-up bunny café are bound to be snapped up quickly, so make sure you email bunnyblossomcafe@gmail.com to save your place. The café will not allow children under 12. Entry is £6.
