So I go on about my rabbits to everyone lol. Everyone knows all about my buns lol!
But I was talking to a mate of mine.....let's call him Grant. Anyway I was just saying how wonderful they were, and what antics they had got up to that day, and he suddenly said 'Oh I think I'll get a bunny'.
And it just made me worry, because I don't think he realises that bunny's need probably more care than dogs and cats.
I tried to subtly hint to him, but he wasn't very interested- almost seemed insulted that I had implied he couldn't care for them.
I just can't see a rabbit go to a bad home.
Shall I be annoying and give him lots of info and websites, and tell him to check them out before he even considers it? Or should I just be respectful and leave him to it?
Because its not that people are cruel, they are just so so ignorant.
And he also has 4 cats, which he doesn't take care of- his parents do.
I just feel that whenever someone who knows nothing about rabbits, says they want to get one, I feel I just have to give them all the information I know, even if they don't want it, because it might make them stop and think 'oh actually I won't- I didn't realise', or they might just go 'wow I know so much more about them- I really want to commit'
But the fact he won't even listen to me, and brushes what i say aside makes me worry...
