Stuffed Toys Make the Best Easter Pets
|
|
To celebrate Easter, and to help rabbits and other popular pets, be adopted to permanent homes, the Dumb Friends League encourages you to buy a stuffed animal toy, instead of a live animal for your child's Easter basket. The life span of a rabbit can be as long as seven to ten years and like any pet, it can make a wonderful companion for the appropriate person if they are willing to make a life-long commitment to it. If you they plan to keep your 'Easter bunny'
for only a few weeks or months, until the novelty wears off, then the
kindest thing you can do for both the rabbit and your children is to buy
a stuffed bunny, chick or other animal at a toy store. A stuffed animal
will only involve one initial monetary outlay, will never have to be fed
or taken to the veterinarian, won't grow too big and won't require a pet
sitter when you go on vacation. Each year the League receives thousands
of pets which were originally acquired as "gifts." |
