Do The Bunny Hop
There’s no better Easter surprise than a fluffy
little bunny sitting in a basket full of sweet Alfalfa hay. And with
so many different kinds of bunnies to choose from, there is a breed
to suit almost every family. But before you head out to adopt a little
bunny this Easter, remember to do your homework. No, not schoolwork……
Bunny homework!

Bunnies live for 5-10 years and you can’t set your pet bunny free
when they grow up. A pet bunny will depend on you to take care of it
for the rest of its life! Tiny bunnies like Mini Lops can spend most
of their time in cages, but big bunnies like Americans or English Spots
will need to have a yard or a big room to run around in for at least
five hours every day. Just like cats and dogs, bunnies need to go to
the vet to get spayed or neutered and get their shots. If you make them
part of your family, bunnies make wonderful pets, but adding a bunny
to your family is a big decision.

If you don’t think you will be able to take care of a bunny for
the next ten years, don’t worry! There are hundreds of wild Hamptons
bunnies right in your backyard for you to watch and enjoy!
