🐰 Our Story
At Cottontail Cuddles, we believe in the magic that happens when gentle animals and imaginative play come together. What began as a simple love for bunnies for my daughters and I, quickly blossomed into something much bigger—a joyful space where children can slow down, connect, and experience wonder.
Founded by a mom with a passion for creativity, kindness, and childhood enchantment, Cottontail Cuddles was born out of a desire to bring soft, meaningful moments into busy families’ lives. From cuddly bunny petting sessions to dreamy Bunny Ballet classes, every part of our program is designed with care, intention, and heart.
Our fluffy friends are raised with love and respect, and every interaction—whether it’s at a birthday party, a petting farm event, or one of our whimsical ballet lessons—is created to nurture empathy, imagination, and delight.
Cottontail Cuddles is more than a business—it’s a community of families, children, and animal lovers who believe that the smallest things (like soft bunny noses and tiny twirls) can leave the biggest impressions.
We’re honored to be part of your child’s memories—and can’t wait to share a little bit of bunny magic with you. 💕
We’re more than just an event service—we’re in the business of creating lifelong memories. Come experience the magic of Cottontail Cuddles!
