A woman in Nebraska found a stuffed bunny, and she’s made it her mission to reunite the plush with its rightful owner.

Erin Sorensen, a deputy editor and podcast host, first tweeted about her discovery on March 3.

"Hey Omaha people – Anyone’s family missing a bunny?" she wrote at the time. "Found near the intersection of 52nd and Burt, laying in the street. I picked it up because it looks like it was pretty loved by someone and I’m hopeful I can find that someone."

Sorensen let her 23,000 Twitter followers know that her dog discovered the bunny during their walk, so she’s not sure if the doll belonged to a human or dog who lives in the area.

She cross-posted her finding to TikTok and local neighborhood groups, but she hasn’t been able to locate the bunny’s owner yet. But her posts did catch the attention of Danielle Allore-Taylor, a Michigan-based plush doll restoration expert who owns and operates Fluff Stuffed Animal Restoration.

Allore-Taylor offered to restore the bunny after Sorensen tagged her in a post.

"The biggest thing I can say is that this was a labor of love," Allore-Taylor told Fox News Digital. "Erin and I both went out of our way to do something for someone, even though we don’t know who it is."

She added, "The world needs more kindness, and I’m glad that I could’ve been a part of it."

Allore-Taylor documented her process on TikTok, which involved laundering off layers of dirt, inserting new fluffy stuffing, brushing the fur and adding a new bow.

It turns out, the bunny was truly a light lavender color instead of the soft gray that appears in Sorenson’s original Twitter post.
