Herbie, a lionhead rabbit from Surrey, UK, has officially been recognized as the world's oldest living rabbit by Guinness World Records, reaching the remarkable age of 15 years and 82 days. His age was verified in November 2025, and he has surpassed the typical lifespan of house rabbits, which is generally between 7 to 10 years. Adopted by Richard and Melissa Dunham when he was just eight weeks old, Herbie was initially brought home as a companion for their female rabbit, Flopsy. The two formed a strong bond, spending 10 years together. Known for his strong-willed and playful character, Herbie enjoys games and lounging with his family. His owners describe his current routine as more relaxed, often cuddling on the couch or basking in the garden sun. While Herbie's record has generated excitement, it has also led to debates among rabbit owners on social media, with many claiming their own rabbits are older. Guinness World Records confirmed Herbie's age through thorough documentation, emphasizing that reaching 15 years is quite rare for domestic rabbits.
