Christmas bunny
buying has been like a tradition and has been done all over the world
by people from all walks of life.This kind of present can sure make
your child happy, but have you really taught about it?See some shocking
facts about getting a bunny for Christmas.
It is important to get documented as much as possible before you decide to buy a Christmas bunny.
Talk to anybody who has worked or in a animal shelter and they will
tell you that they are getting an alarming number of rabbits a month or
two after Christmas is over.
It is you, the parents, who are
going to have to take care of the little rabbit.Young children may get
desapointed that the rabbit would not play with them like a dog would
play and loose interest.It is too much to expect from a child to give
proper care to a pet rabbit.
If you really love animals and the
whole family agree to get a pet rabbit, consider that it is a big
commitment.Indoor rabbits can live from 10 to 12 years, just like dogs
and cats and need to be spayed or neutered.That is an extra
veterinarian expense to consider after getting a baby rabbit.
So if you want a Christmas bunny,
why not adopting one at your local animal shelter rather than buying
one at the pet store? Most rabbits at shelter are older, more easy to
handle, already spayed or neutered and litter trained, witch is a good
help in the house.
Too many people are buying their rabbit at a
pet store on a impulse but have not done any research on the rabbit
first.As a result many of them are left at animal shelters a few
monts later.Rabbits are not just cute little things that can live in a
cage.
So get as much information as possible before making the decision on getting a Christmas bunny.
And should you decide to get one, please visit your local animal
shelter first, there are always a lot of very sweet rabbits in need for
good homes.
