okay so i went into p@h today to get some treat ums for my bunnies as annie is in serious moult anyway stupidly i went to the adoption centre bit and i burst out crying. in the tiny cage was an overweight beautiful grey bunny with a severe eye infection his fur was missing around his eye it was that bad
so i rang my mum and did the crying act to try and get her to let me bring him home she said no however im gonna work on her. anyway i went to the till to pay and asked what donation they wanted for him and the lady replied that they ask half of what they charge for there rabbits. well when i asked her what that was as i never buy animals at a pet shop she replied it was £27.50.
so if thats right then they must charge 55 for a rabbit which then made me think well if there roughly 6 rabbits in a litter and p@h are selling them for 55 then the litter is worth £330 to them. well say they give half of the 55 per rabbit to the person who breeds them then they get 165 per litter.
well no wonder people breed animals in such small cages and dirty accomendations and they breed so many its cause the amount of money they get for breeding them is crazy. :evil:
i bet they just sit on there ass dont work and then take all this money fo selling ill and neglected rabbits.
obviously before anyone jumps on me there is breeders who do breed to a great standard but some dont as my aunts found out last week when they brought rabbits from p@h to find out that they had all caught ringworm of them.
anyway sorry about the rant i just never realized how much money people get form breeding rabbits.
