*sigh*

The first "Easter Bunny" dumps of this year started showing up at shelters this week. :(

*sigh* That's the reason I wouldn't let our local paper do a story on our rescue for the Easter edition of their paper. I really don't need the PR at that time of year, sorry.

Poor bunnies.

Nice that you have yummies to take to them, though.

Round here, unfortunately, bunnies (the wild brown sort) are more than abundant and a bit of a pest.

Bunnies, dogs, cats....the recession has led to an increase in the dumping of all of them. This is one reason I'll only get rescued pets. Bottom line - people suck.

For a change of subject, check out http://tinyurl.com/c7mmxk It's a link to NPR called "Caution Signs Endangered Movie Characters Really Need" There's a good reference to "Night of the Lepus" I though you'd enjoy this.

It's that peculiar idea that bunnies are a kind of pet that don't count. Now dogs and cats have, you know, personalities and minds and emotions, but everyone knows that bunnies are just nature's chicken nuggets. *sigh*

I still get stares when I tell people about Huck's personality and quirks--and amazement that, two years after she died, we're still reminiscing about her. People may not believe we had her for ten years.

Because, you know, bunnies aren't REAL pets.

One of the women in my knitting group tonight was telling us how "adorable" it was that her nephews (5 of them!) all got baby chicks for Easter. And they were taking such good care of them and of course they've all died. I believe my exact words were "fucking idiacy" and I went and took a walk. She joined our group as the friend of a friend of someone who is in the group, hopefully she's learned there are some places you just don't go around me. Just adorable.
