A rabbit weighing 20lb, the same as three chihuahuas, has his own bedroom in a home in Lincolnshire. Jester, an 18-month-old Continental Giant, lives indoors with owner Lyn Hobson, 60, and her husband Peter.
Lyn, a retired chef, said Jester is 'like a child to me' and follows her everywhere, from watching television to doing the washing up. She trained him to use a litter tray, ensuring he never makes a mess.
Jester has three beds in the house, including one in his own bedroom upstairs opposite Lyn and Peter's room. Lyn posts pictures of Jester on social media and has received many messages from fans.
The rabbit has modelled for the front cover of an educational title and as the lead character in a children's book. Lyn hopes these appearances will lead to regular modelling work.
Lyn bought Jester from a breeder in the North East on April 1, 2019, which inspired his name. She said: 'Everyone who meets him falls in love, he's just one of those pets that people are drawn towards.'
