I try and avoid going in if I can help it, but I'm limited on transport and the local pet shop sells the nicest green hay and isn't
too bad.
On Monday I had to go into the local pet shop and they had the most beautiful tri-colour Dutches
and I still came away with just my pellets and my hay.
However I came away from P@H with Lucy after vowing never to buy an animal from a pet shop again because I just knew she was 'my' rabbit. There's a difference between seeing a cute bunny and seeing 'your' bunny.
I think you're so right in what you're saying Jane, that if they stop profitting from it they'll stop selling bunnies, but I always think we're in the minority of pet shop shoppers
I know it's a bit of a defeatist attitude but there are so many more people who buy from pet shops who get a hamster, the kid gets sick of the hamster they get a guinea pig, the kid gets sick of the pig they get a rabbit, there are so many more of them than there are of us so I don't see how us boycotting can make a huge difference.
