Pass me a carrot!!!

I recently felt the itch to find a new case for my iPhone 4. From the moment I first got my iPhone I have kept in it an Otterbox Defender case in black and pink. Very nice case and offers fantastic protection for the phone. I had been searching online for ideas and didn't want to go with just anything and while watching YouTube I noticed in one of the videos the perfect case to change over to.

Cute lil ears, a fuzzy tail...PERFECT!

It's called the Rabito and it's a very uniquely fun case with tons of personality :)

There are tons of colors and you can mix up the tail colors and patterns as well to personalize it even more. I chose black since my iPhone is black which makes one think uhhhh boring but I went for an anything but plain tail and picked a calico brown and black patterned tail (I've also seen this tail listed as cheetah on some sites).

There are tons of sites that sell Rabitos but I chose eBay. Now I know there are tons of people that frown on the auction site because of the unknown nature of who you are buying from and if the product is exactly what the seller says it is but I can truly say that I've had nothing but good experiences purchasing from eBay and I use the site often in search of deals and other unique items. I do caution however that if you are going to use eBay to purchase an item do the ground work and look into who you are buying from. A seller's reviews can say so much about what kind of seller they are and if others have had good experiences with them. I also don't make purchases from sellers who only use stock photos of items, if I'm going to purchase something then I want to see a picture of the actual item and not a picture from a website. I make sure to read the seller's return policy, I have made purchases from sellers in the past that did not offer returns and I never had problems with the items but I do try to search for seller's who have what I'm looking for and offer returns.

More about the case, the shipping was quick from the seller I purchased from which is always nice since I like having my items right away without paying a fortune for shipping. The case itself is a stiffer silicone compared to some other silicone cases, it's sturdy and grips the phone well and doesn't slide or slip and upon inserting my iPhone into the case it sounded as if it snapped right into place which gave me confidence that it was going to hold my phone well and keep it protected. The case adds almost no thickness to the phone which compared to my Otterbox is a big adjustment for me. The Otterbox adds much more thickness and weight. The ears are one with the phone so there's no worry of them coming unattached unless you cut them off with scissors. If you use earbuds a lot for talking or music the ears have a second purpose in which you can wrap the earbud cord around the ears to keep them neat and handy. The tail is detachable which is great for versatility. Although the tail is furry and soft there is a stiffer inside (I have no clue whats inside it) which once it's attached to the phone via a small suction cup it allows for the phone to stand upright or on it's side. This feature is great for when you want to view videos or movies or even when using the speaker phone option or the FaceTime option for iPhone. The suction cup gives a strong hold and has only come lose a few times but wiping it off and pushing it back on is simple. Although I keep my nails short I'm still able to peel the suction cup off without a problem. I also want to add that the slot used for charging and syncing is open on the case but I had to adjust its size only by a small amount to allow for my charger to stay plugged into it. I used the smallest blade that came with my xacto knife from my craft supplies and trimmed what seemed like a tiny amount off to allow for more room. I haven't heard of anyone else having this problem, some chargers may be smaller I don't know but it was an easy fix so don't let this be a deal breaker in whether you purchase the case or not.

So far this case is working out great for me and I'm enjoying the lil extra piece of personality it adds to my phone :)
