The Make Mine Chocolate Rabbit Sale Easter Amnesty!
By amy104 | Monday, February 07, 2011, 12:42
A UK-wide survey carried out by Make Mine Chocolate! during 2009-10 confirms that a large number of owners do not consider the long term commitment before getting their rabbit; in the region of 60% of rabbits entering rescue do so within the first year of ownership.

Its a sad fact that impuse buying at Easter, Christmas, Valentines means that already overcrowded rescue shelters are inundated with calls from owners wishing to offload their rabbit because the child has lost interest, and the reality of cleaning, feeding and expensive vet trips is too much.
If you are a retailer please help stop this from happening by supporting the The Make Mine Chocolate! Easter Amnesty.

It would be great if Aaron's Pets would sign up to this - I think they sell small animals in their Clevedon shop?
