About us...
General Care & Management
- We are a small business called Wabbit Industry created by 5 entrepreneurs who have experience and a passion for rabbits. We created a product that is crucial to the rabbit industry and Wabbit Bottles were invented. The 5 business owners decided on a partnership and became the initial investors and employees of the business.
