In Gochuumon wa Usagi Desuka?, Tippy, the creature on top of Chino's head, is introduced to be a rabbit.

Is it in any possible way a rabbit in real life, or is it just another RidiculouslyCuteCritter?

  • Please only use one tag per series. – кяαzєя Jan 12 '15 at 21:28

  • But you have enough rep to not only create tags but also create [tag synomyns](http://anime.stackexchange.com/help/privileges/suggest-tag-synonyms). – кяαzєя Jan 12 '15 at 21:32
  • +1; I had the exact same question when I watched the series. Plus, it's nice to see Gochiusa get some attention on this site. – Torisuda Jan 14 '15 at 22:21

Tippy is an Angora rabbit. A popular pet amongst French royalty in the mid-18th century and in Europe in the later part of the century.

A picture of a White English Angora rabbit from Wikipedia:

It was also officially confirmed from this magazine illustration (Japanese) in the Q&A in the lower left corner.

Is rabbit actually an item on the shop's menu?

Although Tippy, an Angora rabbit, is kept as a pet at Rabbit House, and in episode 1, Cocoa ordered for a rabbit out of ignorance, there is no such thing on the menu, since Tippy is obviously not for sale (lol). [...]
