A Rabbit is Not a Christmas Gift

I'm glad the rwaf are following it up

Yeah no animal should be advertised as a gift in a magazine or anything. But I do think animals can be gifts if it's for all the right reasons and if research has been done, it's a planned thing rather than a whim, if the person receiving the animal really wants it and has expressed that before, etc. Growing up my parents often got me and my siblings animals as christmas/birthday/easter etc presents.

But the general public is usually not going to give animals as gifts for the right reasons. Animal people will understand when it's appropriate but the general public won't. so a stupid thought for whoever thought it was a good idea to put in that magazine.

My thoughts too

Oh my gosh!!! Rabbits are not gifts they are pets that need to be looked after for their whole lives. If you get one for a kid the 'novelty' will wear off quickly, a Rabbit as a Christmas gift is not a good idea and it will most likely not get the right treatment and be forgotten about! [emoji35]
