Iggy , The Fearless Cat Chasing Rabbit.

Iggy , Rachel’s fearless Rabbit.

Iggy was full of joy when we first brought her home and let her out of her cage. She ran laps around the entire house jumping and twisting in the air every few minutes. Apparently rabbits twist in the air when they are extremely happy.

Unbelievable as it sounds, Iggy was in charge of the
