It makes me so sad to read things like that and im dreading easter time
I hope im working nearer easter time so i can try to get people to foster bunnies rather than buy bunnies or to not even get a bunny and get a chocolate egg instead
It wont work but atleast i can try to spread the word

So sad.Last year the garden centre by us had 2 does which had given birth in glass pens in the shop.As you can imagine it was a great crowd puller-"come and see the Easter bunnies"I felt so sorry for the does,imagine how stressful it must be for them to have their babies on display,lots of noisy children etc.If it happens this year I will have to say something

Did you see in the papers today, there's a woman in Ayrshire with a giant bun who's had 7 babies? She was saying what good pets for kids giant rabbits are - she also said that P@H sell theirs for £120 and she'll only be selling her's for £20-£30 and they'll make great Easter presents

I can almost hear what will be going on soon in houses across the land:
"Mum, mum, mum, can I have a rabbit mum... mum, muuuuuum, I'll feed it and clean it and everything... go on mum, mum please, please mum, mum, mummy, mummmmmmm.... mum please, go on, mum, mum, mummmmm, I'll never ask you for anything else ever if you just buy me a rabbit for easter... mum... mum.... muuuummmmm... please, mum, I want a baby rabbit for easter mum, please, mum... I want that really big one we saw in the garden centre last Sunday... mum, mum... it wont cost much mum as that smallest 3 foot hutch is only £30.... mum, mum, can I mum, please, mum..."
"NO, NOW SHUT THE UP"
*fit of hysterics*
"Oh, go and ask your dad then."
Shortly followed by:
"Are you going to clean the damn rabbit out you wanted or am I taking it to the RSPCA?"
"It's boring and it bites me... mum, can I not have a hamster instead? I'll look after it and feed it and everything and it is nearly Christmas..."

I must admit I got a pair of bunnies around easter time when I was a kid. I had been pestering my parents for about a year though and helped my dad build a massive 4x8 double story hutch for them. (I couldn't reach the roof without a stepladder!)
They were awesome and I had them for 7 years until they died within about a week of each other. I was devistated.
Unfortunately, until we can get some massive publicity going then we're going to continue seeing poor buns kept in a tiny hutch at the bottom of the garden with no interaction from the people who bought them.
Any pets should be a parents responsibility. Makes me so mad.
