The mall by my Mom's house, where I live rightnow, doesn't do it, but the ones in Pittsburgh do. I've neverseen actual rabbits, just the person in the costume.
I've got to say that being in the pet store business, I hateholidays. We don't sell rabbits the week before or afterEaster, but the owner is a real pain about it. He is someoneI've known and he asked me to come work and make things better at thestore when I moved here (I'm actually a pain for my employees, but Ithink in the end they are happier, but they hate me at the beginningbecause I won't let them slack at all.) One of my conditionswas to change the selling policies around the holidays. Nocats go at Halloween and we try REALLY hard to discourage anythinggoing out at Christmas and promote gift certificates. I'vesold a bunch of bunnies in the last 3 weeks (and everyone gotapacket with care sheets and web sites and bookrecommendations). We had Netherland Dwarf mixes and minirexes (I would have actually taken one to breed with Basil if they werepedigreed, and I'm kind of still kicking myself for not takinghim). Now we have dwarf hotot mixes and mini lop/Holland lopmixes. They are all so cute, but I'm going to resist andcontinue to advise people. As of Friday, they all go onhold. We also have a take back with no questions askedpolicies and an 80% refund around holidays (we normally don't refund asto discourage bouncing the animals from one home to another).
