We fully support the "Make Mine Chocolate" campaign, to avoid people impulse purchasing baby rabbits during the easter period as gifts. Bunnies are sensitive, intelligent, highly social animals who can live over 10 years of age and require as much care and veterinary attention (s/n, microchipping, annual vaxs and check ups) as cats or dogs preferably at a rabbit specialist vet. They are not okay to be left in small hutches all their lives with nothing but pellets for food and occasional pats and are not ideal 'starter' pets for very young children as their are sometimes promoted. Thousands of buns are bred every year to turn a dollar at easter and most of them don't make it to their first birthday; the victims of neglect, misunderstanding, disposable attitudes, poor diet, injury or dumping in the 'wild' or at high kill pounds and shelters.
That said, one of the cutest things around at easter-time are bunnies...
Don't you agree? Cinnamon and Romeo sure think Bunny Lilypillie and Bunny Lala are their favorite kind of "easter bunny" too!

It was a Target bargain when La was a little thing. This is La in it:
