Unwanted Christmas pets

[Catherine]

Sadly some people who got pets for Christmas didn't want them. I can understand that. We all get presents we don't really want.
However when the present is a live animal it should never be abandoned. There are plenty of animal shelters that will take unwanted Christmas pets. They have been doing it every year. They would rather take in one more unwanted pet than have happen what happened to this poor little rabbit.

He was just a little rabbit who wanted to be the best pet ever. He didn't deserve to die like that. As he was dying I wonder if he wondered what he did wrong  that made his people not want him. All he did was end up with the wrong people, people so selfish that they didn't care if he lived or died. If they had even waited for the warm weather or put his cage where it could be found the little rabbit would have had a chance at life.

So many pets are not given a chance. The lucky ones are the ones that end up at shelters.

Some people should never have a pet. They clearly do not have the ability to commit to a pet for life. How sad that some pets through no fault of there own end up with people like that.
