As a young teen, Caleb was the visionary behind Peacebunny Island, where he and youth guardians began training domestic rabbits to become comfort animals. After renting the island for a summer, he began paying the mortgage on a 22-acre Mississippi River island where volunteers provided a short-term "summer camp" for rabbits who have shown an outgoing disposition. The "Peacebunny Unit" has traveled nationally to provide animal-assisted activities and crisis response programs to support people who are dealing with loneliness, trauma and grief. Volunteers have regularly brought Caleb's comfort rabbits to visit seniors at assisted living homes and hospice. A separate volunteer team, the "STEMbunnies Unit" continues to host events designed to get kids of all ages excited about animal science facts. His memoir, written when he was 16 years old, focuses on the early years, his inspiration to create Peacebunny Island, and lessons gleaned along his unique journey with his friends -- some furrier than others.
