Better Bunnies
by Pheniyx
Better Bunnies changes the rabbits in Minecraft into rounder, fluffier animals with more complex behaviour, wider breed variety and new furniture and clothing.
What it does
Bunnies in this mod are chunkier and fluffier than the vanilla rabbit, and the author describes them as cuter for it. Their behaviour is more complex, and the breeds and variants cover a wider range of looks. Accessories and clothing can be put on the bunnies, and a kit can sit on their head.
The mod also adds furniture for keeping bunnies in a home. It is built for Fabric on Minecraft 1.21.1 only, with the latest file being 1.0.1-1.21.1. Both the server and every player need it, because the environment is client and server. Fabric API is required, so it must be installed alongside Better Bunnies.
The code is released under the MIT License, but the project is not open source. Files were first published on 2025-01-04 and last updated on 2025-01-11.
