White Rabbit (白ウサギ) is a central fictional character created by Lewis Carroll for his 1865 novel Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Dressed in a waistcoat and carrying a pocket watch, he is an anxious, perpetually hurried royal servant who is closely associated with the Queen of Hearts. His hurried appearance catches Alice's attention, prompting her to follow him down the rabbit hole and into Wonderland. Nervous and deferential, the White Rabbit frequently worries about being late and carries out his duties within the Queen's court.
