With almost every phone having a camera in it, people just aren’t willing to lug along a separate Point-and-shoot anymore.

She’s a black and white Dutch-mix and just plain full of spunk. Unfortunately, she doesn’t really get along with our other bunny Rexie so they stay separated but in the same room.
