Easter and Bunnies Don't Mix
good match. The natural exuberance and rambunctiousness of
even the gentlest toddler are stressful for the sensitive rabbit.
Children like a companion they can hold, carry, and cuddle.
That's why stuffed animals are so popular. Rabbits are not passive
and cuddly. They are ground-loving creatures who feel frightened
and insecure when held and restrained. The result: the child loses
interest, and the rabbit ends up neglected or abandoned.
Rabbits are not "low-maintenance" pets. They have a
lifespan of 10 years and require as much work as a dog or cat.
Your home must be bunny-proofed, or Thumper will chew electrical
cords and furniture. Rabbits must be spayed or neutered or
they will mark your house with feces and urine. They should live
indoors, as members of the family. To consign these sensitive,
intelligent, social animals to life in a hutch is to miss the joy of
sharing your life with a rabbit. So if your child is pleading for a
bunny for Easter, do a rabbit a favor, and buy her a toy rabbit that
she can snuggle to her heart's content. Let's make Easter a joyful
time for our long-eared friends.
Clearly, rabbits aren't for everyone. Are you a gentle adult living in
a quiet household? If you think you're one of those rare individuals
who would enjoy sharing life with a rabbit, please visit your
local rabbit-rescue group.
