Cricket has thrown her adorable bunny hat into the race for the new Trix rabbit! General Mills has created the search as a way to promote their new spin on the iconic cereal, which abandons artificial flavors and colors.

Cricket -- who lives in St. Paul with her human, Julie -- is no stranger to the spotlight. She was the winner of a contest which aimed to dethrone the cat as the Internet's go-to-pet.
