Pets at Home puts halt on adoptions and purchases of rabbits to clamp down on seasonal impulse buying
Easter bunnies are everywhere in the run-up to next weekend's celebrations. But pet lovers wanting to buy or adopt their own Easter bunny are out of luck at Britain's biggest pet store chain.
The halt on sales will run over the whole Easter weekend - April 7-10. But families can get to know rabbits and other small animals better in a series of free 30-minute My Pet Pals workshops. Children will have the chance to meet small furry friends and learn how to properly care for them. They’ll also enjoy a range of interactive activities including making a foraging box.
Vet Karlien Heyrman, the head of pets at Pets at Home, said: “We’ve paused the sale of rabbits over the Easter weekend for a number of years. It’s one important step we take to help play our part in reducing impulse decisions over the festive period and promote responsible pet ownership, along with hosting the My Pet Pals workshops.
