International Rabbit Day

Share This:

Soft, sleek, and symbolicโ€”the rabbit is innocence, abundance, and allure all in one.

More Than Cute

International Rabbit Day, celebrated on the fourth Saturday of September (falling on September 27 in 2025), is a day to promote the welfare and protection of rabbits around the world. But beyond the cuddly pets and endangered wild species, rabbits have a powerful cultural presence. From fertility symbols in ancient mythologies to the iconic Playboy Bunny in modern nightlife, the rabbit straddles the line between innocence and allure.

In 2025, rabbits are both vulnerable and symbolic. Conservation efforts fight to protect wild populations, while cultural references keep them forever embedded in style, art, and nightlife. This dualityโ€”the gentle creature of nature and the seductive emblem of nightlife glamourโ€”makes the rabbit one of the most Classy Savage animals of all.
