Cara Delevingne’s bunny gets into hot water

He is without doubt the most fashionable bunny in Britain — and his antics are followed by thousands on social media.

But supermodel Cara Delevingne’s pet rabbit Cecil almost came to an unfortunate end last week after he was let loose in the offices of Mulberry, home of the designer handbag.

Delevingne released Cecil, giving him free rein of the room, while she sat at a table with executives before a photo shoot.

A source said: “He was happily eating the celery out of the Bloody Marys and just hanging with everyone.

“He was hopping around into everyone’s lap and then Cara put him down on the floor so she could take a few pictures. It was then that he saw his moment.”

Cecil is said to have spotted an air-conditioning pipe poking out of the floor.

“Before anyone could do anything he had launched his back paws and scuttled over to it,” the source said.

“The last thing anyone saw was the disappearing tail. He didn’t get very far because he got stuck under the floor.”

Horrified staff called for the urgent assistance of maintenance men, who were forced to remove a number of floor vents so the pet could be rescued — much to Delevingne’s relief. The 21-year-old supermodel, who has posed for Burberry, Mulberry and Chanel, is known for her rather eccentric habits. Lately these have included carting Cecil to meetings in a bunny box.

She introduced ‘Cecil Bunny Delevingne’ to the world last Wednesday. He has since been photographed with his famous ‘aunties’ — her sister Poppy Delevingne as well as her friend, the singer Rita Ora. He has also been pictured frolicking around the streets of London, sitting in front of a computer keyboard and showing off his taste for Chanel.

The supermodel and her famous friends are known for their obsession with social media. Cara has 5.38 million followers on the photo-sharing website Instagram.

And Cecil is no different — amassing 71,000 Instagram followers to overtake Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld’s cat, Choupette, who has a mere 37,000 followers on Twitter.
