      I think it’s a terrible idea, even if the child can be trusted they will probably grow out of the bunny and want a dog or something, and the bunny will just get dumped
      Edit: it’s only a good idea if they are willing to take care of a bunny

      I think there should be a certain age for a kid to own a rabbit and I think it’s from high school age, but I think that children will mistreat that rabbit and ignore it and not feed it water because they’re busy doing kids stuff and not taking care of the rabbit I personally think that we should go to her page and talk to her about rescues and do more research as a bunny owners. We should reach out and talk to Savannah about it and try to help and educate them on how to own a bunny and rabbits and what to do and not what to do.

      Fr! There needs to be an App where you can have a bunny come over for a few hours for a decent price, and with it's owner supervising. Like a visit/play date. It'd stop a lot of parents from buying their kids bunnies for Easter and the bunny being neglected within 2 or 3 months. Just spit balling here.

    According to Discovery News, since ancient times, eggs and rabbits have been a symbol of fertility, while spring has been a symbol of rebirth. So, even though rabbits don't lay eggs, the association of these symbols was almost natural. So its basically, humans are supposed to be honor fertility, not bunnies. Also, it's a pagan holiday.

      Me to! I am 10 and I have a bunny named Muffin, Right now he is in a 4 x 2 Nic grid cage pen thingy it’s a big 2 story cage that dose have Nic grids on the top because my cat used to have access to my bunny but she doesn’t anymore but when she did I didn’t want her to be able to touch him, I wanted a ex pen but it just didn’t work for my living situation,anyways he is gonna be free roamed in my room once he is fully litter trained, and personally, I think I am a good bunmom, he always has alfalfa hay (as he is under 6 months), he gets 1/4 cup of young rabbit oxbow pellets every morning and half of a oxbow vitamin C tab, he only gets ONE Full oxbow Small rewards treat a day, I typically will break those into smaller pieces so I can use them more wisely then just giving the full treat, he gets a good amount of free roam time in my bedroom I’m not sure about the exact amount cuz it differs from day to day, he has 2 available hides in his cage but he prefers just a hidden corner, he also has a available hide in my bedroom for when he is hopping around, I clean his litter box either every other day or every day I’m still figuring out what routine works for us, and he has many available chews, sometimes I make some for him, but I also but I also buy some, he is a little skittish but once he gets to know you he opens up more,so really, I think it depends about the age, and how serious the child is about the rabbit, like are they gonna take their time to clean the rabbits space, or clean the litter box, or litter train them, or even just provide daily social interaction with the bunny without terrifying it, thanks for reading! Have a great Rest of your Day and Stay Hoppy!

    My bun was a dumped Easter bunny. I always give her a lot of treats to find on Easter to make up for them dumping her. She was at the shelter nearly 2 years before I adopted her, which was nearly her whole life at that time. She has such a great personality, and she's an excellent companion. I feel lucky to have her, but that other family really missed out. That's why I feel all the more upset about people getting bunnies for Easter. You want an Easter bunny? Buy a plushie.

    This story is sickening. I absolutely hate the way rabbits are treated around Easter. Rabbits are intelligent animals with needs and feelings, not a cute toy to buy your kid who isn't even old enough to understand how to respect an animal's boundaries. Ugh, I hate people so much sometimes...
    I do have to split with Lorelei on entirely ignoring Easter in regards to rabbits. I've had rabbits for around 13 years and I love them so much. I like to spoil them a bit on Easter to kind of celebrate that they're here with me living a good life. I wish all bunnies were given a chance at the kind of life my bunnies or Lennon or Cinnabun live...

    I certainly took good care of my bunny. I cleaned her hutch every week, fed her every day, snuggled up to her in my bed all the time, took her to the vets for her jabs every year. Gave her fresh hey to eat, and played with her almost daily for hours at a time. She wasn't just a pet, she was my best friend. She only died because she got bunny cancer, but we were there for her until her dying hours. I loved my little dwarf lop, she was so cute and fluffy and her fur was soft and clean!!!!

I also used to take her into the house and play with her for hours every day almost. In the colder months she went in the green house, but even then I went out to bring her in and play with her. I used to hand feed her dandelions too. Every morning I would get up and feed her. sometime she would spend most of the day in my arms having me carry her around where ever I went. She only really was in her hutch in the late of the night. When she was in the garden she would spend 4 or 5 hours playing there. I used to hand feed her sweat treats and vegetables. she sometimes would sleep with me in my bed when I was a teen. When we were away we have my sisters friends look after them, they would play with her too. I think she was a bit too busy to be board or depressed, I literally played with her so often!!!!

    It's always a good idea to do a lot of research on how to look after bunnies or any pets, with the rest of your family together, "before" getting a pet. That's what we did. Parents are better to be on top and be the main care givers. Children can learn but they need to have right and enough information provided to them from parents.

    I went through basic rules with kids when we decided to have a baby bunny at home. We learned together how to take care of bunny and respect bunny's nature. By now, the bunny is almost 4 years old and happily hops in our living room. We all wish there could at least another 4 years for her to be with us. Little kids can understand and follow rules. And yes, I repeated soooo many times. Btw I consider that's also a good lesson for kids: true love comes with respect and understanding.

    I purchased the hop litter box and have been using it for about three weeks and it has literally changed my life! It makes for such a quick cleanup and resupply. I take the top off, put a garbage liner on the pan then a paper bag or a newspaper, and then the lavender bedding from a small pet select. I only have to put it really on the 3/4 of the pan because the hay part takes up the other side. Also, I have found that one of my rabbits likes to jump on top of the litter box and eat the hay from the top! I have three bunnies free roam so They can literally all three be eating hay at the same time two in the litter box and one on top. It’s harmonious!!! My only suggestion would be that the panel on the top that pops off for access clip in a little tighter. Especially because my one von likes to jump up on there it’s not as a secure fit as I think it could be, other than that, it’s been an absolute dream! I can’t believe I spent that much on a litter box and having had it now I can’t believe I wouldn’t.

They might even forget to feed and provide water for them (praying that does not happen).

It’s obvious they have not done this. Savanna would have to be living under a rock to not know this these days. Shameful. Maybe with enough pressure from social media they’ll straighten up.

She had 6 babies and the last one passed away today. The mom seemed inexperienced and no matter how hard we tried, we lost them all. This could have been avoided if people knew what they were getting into. I am so sad and pissed off.

      Good idea. I’m looking at the bunny plush I bought myself last easter right now. I am not in a position where I could house a live bunny. But there are wild rabbits in my area, so I get to see bunnies hopping around fairly regularly. They’re the best.

    I just can’t believe it Everleigh ( the oldest kid) is older than me (she is 12) and when I first adopted my bunnies I was 7 and I watched/ did my research for 6 months before convincing and putting on a slide show for my parents. In fact in an interview we did with the adoption centre , the questions were mostly answered by me. I really hope that these bunnies are at least brought to a rescue instead of releasing the bunnies in the wild.

    I was at the Petstore today bc I needed to get my rabbits more toys and food and I couldn’t believe how much bunnies there were for Easter. It was heartbreaking 😢. People don’t want to have a whole time commitment and once people realize how much work they are, people prob going to dump them I felt so bad. I just wanted to take them all and save them 😔😔😔

    Hi Lorelei, I hope you read this! I just wanted to say you were the reason I wanted to get rescue bunnies, and at first after doing lots of research and watching your videos I explained how they need to live indoor but sadly because of my two large dogs they had to live outside in a hutch and a play pen. Now after a lot of help and teaching my parents why, I have 2 happy, healthy rescue bunnies that live free roam in a bunny proofed house! Thank you so much and you are amazing 🤩 I watch you videos all the time and your changing people views on rabbits. Thank you so much x💕💕🐰

    I have 2 indoor free roaming male rabbits the oldest is 10 and a half. I rescued him when he was 2. He was being kept in a small metal cage and his owners had lost interest in him and gotten a kitten instead. It was so sad but he's been living his best life with me and I love him to the moon and back.

    I got my bunny from a neighbor who had 8 bunnies and had to move to a small camper. Hunny Bunny was around 2 years old and was allowed to run around and chew on furniture and baseboards and I kept her in a cage at first because she was scared. As we developed a relationship I was able to potty pad train her and give her a variety of healthy food and treats and all is well. I am 71yo and I have had her for 3 years now. I would NOT recommend that young children have a rabbit as a pet.
    1. They're a lot of work.
    2. They require a regular routine and
    3. They're fragile animals ❤ I love my baby so much and she is a very good companion for me. She doesn't bark and I don't have to take her for walks or let her outside to go potty. ❤😊❤

  • @JW-qc4uj
    @JW-qc4uj 2 місяці тому +1

    You are so gracious.
    What's really sad, is the more information is available to us on so many forums, that we as a society asked for and created, the less people listen to or read the information that is out there to help them make genuine and sound decisions. Especially when it comes
    to having a rabbit join the family. I hope they hear you and others and do their research for the sake of these bunnies who's fate is sadly unknown right now. There is so much good information on rabbit care and responsible adoption that it is unacceptable for anyone to just wake up one day and say hey I think I'll get a bunny and if it doesn't work out, meh, I'll get rid of it. I have adopted bunnies for 26 years now. I have had a total of 6 now (down to 1 as of the passing of my 10 1/2 year old in October). But every one has taught me so much. They're all different. I've had 2 single bunnies. I had a trio where I went to adopt one but he had two brothers and I didn't have the heart to separate them. They've all passed and the oldest was 13. They had semi annual vet visits. I took care of them when their back legs no longer worked. One went blind but he adapted so well and still ran through the house and came out to the living room for his evening pets. Bunnies require commitment. Humans are so dedicated to their own self care (well most) and we all need to extend that care to our furbabies. Forever.
    Thank you for allowing me the long comment. Cheers and love to all the amazing bunny moms and dads. ❤

  • @CrescendoBatVR
    @CrescendoBatVR Місяць тому +1

    I just want to add a comment on this topic of buy or adopt. Now I’m not talking about this family, but in general. Adoption of course is the better choice, but that thing is about buying is that adoption can be really hard. It of course takes time to adopt, but some people who rent houses might face a struggle with the requirement by the certain adoption center. Which could give a struggle with getting landlords involved and all that. But at the end of the day, if adoption can be done , then do it. That action will truly support the bunny world. Have a great day!

    This is so sad. We already know what is going to happen to these poor bunnies. I remember when I rescued my baby, I did so much research, and bunny proofed our home before picking her up. Took her to the bed within a week and got her spayed right away. Hope this family is getting advice from all of their followers and educate them of what it means to own a bunny. Like you said... this is a 10-12 year commitment. Thank you for creating this video and bringing light to this.

    As a person who rescues bunnies and has seen how horrible these poor creatures can often have it I do not think bunnies are a good choice for small children or for people who don’t have the time and commitment to properly care for them. They are great pets for the right person however most people don’t have a clue what these creatures are really about.

    I got my rabbit when I was 12 actually and its been 2 years since I got her. I had started to want a bunny when I was 10 and researched a bunch of different foods they can eat, how much space different breeds need, materials needed, and different breeds themselves before finally getting her. So I think it depends on maturity level and responsibility rather than age really

Her's is a albino male that she named Sir Von Cadbury, my bunny is a calico female named Azula. We got them at Coastal at just the right time. They had been there for months already and the store employees were worried thst they would have to put them in a shelter or some sort of rabbit farm. We got them for $30.00. i dont regret that because idk what wouldve happened to them if we didnt purchase them when we did. And thanks to you and you're channel i managed to convince my dad to buy them for my mum and i. I now have a decent bond with Azula and shes almost four months old, geez times flies I've almost had her for a whole month 😮

    The one thing I’m at least thankful for is that for the last 2 years, not just shelters, but even breeders around my area and a few others around Uk stop selling bunnies for around 2-3 weeks around Easter time and even Christmas time and put up signs and notifications that they will not be selling any bunnies around these time to reduce the amount of people who buy them just to dump them not long afterwards. Even all the local pet shops around me and others also don’t have rabbits to sell around these times and put up a notice that they do not encourage people just to buy them for their kids and how they are more than just cute animals but living creatures who deserve love, respect lots of care and they are a long terms commitment ❤
    Though I personally still don’t support breeders and pet shops, I’m still at least grateful that there are more and more of them not selling their bunnies around Easter and Christmas time, though there is definitely much more they can improve on, I’m at least thankful that they are making some improvements xx

    I have been a subscriber of yours for years, I am from Russia. Here, the bunny situation is much worse, despite a great growing bunny community. Unfortunately there will always be either oblivious idiots or people who are literally arent able to feel sympathy for animals. This is either comes from high ignorance and self sense of importance or/and lack of education on behalf of animal world and pet care. What you do is incredibly important, i believe your reviews are what is helping solving part of the problem. However there always be people like this and I grew to accept that. This is why we globally need pet laws to help. Educational videos, books and on and on made by our loving comunity. Frankly I am nobody, but I am thinking of making a cartoon or book about bunnies for russian audience. At least when I ll feel ready because my bunny unfortunately passed away last spring from dental problems. I was also away, and not with her, so I felt like a biggest failure as an owner. Back then I also learned that pet graveyards are forbidden in russia. It's literally illegal. I mean i know the country is inhuman but they keep finding ways to surprise me.

    That would be a great video maybe a collaboration - will benefit both of your channels and most of all for the good of the bunnies- a video of you meeting up with labrants and helping them create an awesome bunny habitat for their new furbabys. I think its always best not to pre-judge and to offer help and resources. Most people DO love their animals and DO want to to whats best for them, just might not know that they are missing information on how to provide better care and people can become defensive when they feel judged, especially on sensitive topics like this- it becomes sensitive because people DONT want to feel like they are hurting their animal or not giving them what they need. Offering help without judgement is the way to go . I would love to see it if you guys ever do meet up and do a video.
