Feb. 6 (UPI) -- A stuffed rabbit found at Pittsburgh International Airport's baggage claim is on its way back to its owner after a social media appeal.

The airport posted a video to Instagram showing employees taking the well-loved stuffy on a tour of the hub's facilities after being found abandoned Monday.

"We found a bunny in our baggage claim area. We showed them LOTS of love, but want them to be warm and cuddled in their own home," the video's caption reads.

A follow-up post revealed the toy's family had been found. The bunny, aptly named Bunny, belongs to a 6-year-old girl named Waylynn.
