Bratcher’s Bunnies is more than a business—it’s a heartfelt mission brought to life. Inspired by the legacy of a beloved grandmother who raised and bred rabbits, and founded by a single mother with a dream, Bratcher’s Bunnies was born from love, resilience, and a desire to share the quiet magic of animals with the world.

In the early 1980s into 2000s, Diane Bratcher, owned and operated Diane’s Elegant Rabbit Ranch in Royal Palm Beach. She was a founding member of the Palm Beach County Rabbiteers, a 90-member association of rabbit breeders.

Diane conducted outreach programs for local schools and the Palm Beach County 4-H Youth Program for many years to educate about Rabbits and Rabbit ownership. She also organized Rabbit Exhibits at the South Florida Fair over several decades and was named an Honored Volunteer in the South Florida Fair Hall of Fame.

Her memory will forever be cherished by those who survive her. She leaves behind a legacy of kindness, hard work, and a life well-lived.  Her presence will be deeply missed, but her spirit will live on in the hearts of those who loved her. Diane will always be remembered for her outgoing personality, beautiful smile, sense of humor, and willingness to help others.
