Stuffed Animals Are Better Choices for Easter
After
Easter, shelters across the nation are bombarded with unwanted
rabbits and chickens that were given as Easter gifts. Once the
reality of caring for the animal has set in, people “throw them
away” at shelters.
When those baby rabbits and chicks conjure up warm childhood
memories, resist the temptation to buy them for your children or
grandchildren during the holiday.
Rabbits and chickens are excellent pets for many people, but as
with any decision to add a pet to your family, research and
careful consideration are required. Rabbits and chickens require
proper feeding and shelter and time to properly care for them –
something many of today’s families cannot spare. like cats and
dogs, rabbits need to be spayed/neutered and micro-chipped
because they can easily escape.
