As we approach the holiday season, we feel it’s important to remind everyone (AGAIN) that bunnies and guinea pigs are not Christmas gifts.
They are an 8-12 year commitment.
They p**p 200-300 times a day.
A cage or hutch is too small for them. They need room and stimulation to be happy and healthy.
If not desexed bunnies can develop lethal cancers and/or behavioural problems (one of the reasons so many are surrendered).
Rabbits and piggies are prey animals so are not usually cuddly.
They’re considered exotic animals due to the specialist veterinary care they need and can be a very costly pet.
Please- Guinea pigs and rabbits should NOT be purchased on a whim from breeders, gumtree or pet stores.
