Hi Bunnicula,
Those bunnies are just precious! Such cute little babies.
I would first like to say that, I TOTALLY agree with your "Easter and bunnies don't mix" sig!! People should definitely NOT be able to adopt bunnies around Easter time, just like they aren't allowed to adopt black kitties around Halloween! Having a pet is a HUGE responsibility and it should not be taken lightly.
I would, however, like to share a happy Easter bunny story with you, if I may.
When I was a little girl, my mom and I walked by a pet store that had loads of cute little bunnies in the window. It was around Easter time. I had always had pets, and was always taught to love them and be responsible for them. I absolutely BEGGED my mom for one of those bunnies! My mother took me aside and explained to me that, if I was just excited about Easter and the bunnies, that we could go inside and I could play with the bunnies for as long as I wanted, but that would be the end of it. She went on to explain that, if I really wanted one of those bunnies, then it would be just like all of the other pets we had had. I would be responsible for the bunny's care and I was to be loving and respectful of the animal and it was a very serious thing to take an animal for a pet. Adopting a pet was not something to be done in the excitement of the moment. (My Mommy is a TRUE animal lover, I guess that's where I get my love for them!)
Anyway, we ended up buying a little white bunny. (Today we know better-we would have gone to a shelter!) I named him Peter (I know, not a very original name, LOL!)
Peter was loved, well cared for and cherished. He lived a long life and he was treated as part of the family. He in turn gave me laughter and companionship, and I still get tears in my eyes when I remember him. He chewed up our curtains and our bedskirts, but we never minded because we loved him so much.
I guess my point is that everyone should be taught at an early age to love and care about all animals. They are a treasure and a gift.
Sorry to be so long-winded, but I just wanted to say that I wish that every poor animal in a shelter or on the streets could find a loving home. I wish that every person could, like you, care about animals that are so far away, but deserve love and respect.
