Might be time to write that letter to the editor about not dumping ducks

[Amiga]

I just posted this on my facebook wall, feel free to quote or paraphrase:


With the Easter season approaching I would like to make a public service announcement, particularly to my facebook friends with families. A baby chick, duck or bunny IS NOT AN IMPULSE BUY! Animals are not something you keep until it doesn’t suit you anymore! Yes they are cute and I am getting a shipment of “Babies” myself this spring, but I have permanent housing, equipment, and knowledge to care for my new pets. You will not find me buying ducklings this spring because I don’t have the means to take care of them! You will not find me “Releasing” a DOMESTICATED animal into the wild to starve, or freeze. Please be responsible in your Easter basket purchases. These creatures make incredible pets and deserve our respect. IF you are planning on buying a little fuzzy for your kids or yourself this spring season please make arrangements for the long term, whether it be at your home or someone else’s, in advanced.

Thanks, BotO, I posted a similar plea on FB.

No problem, I've already had others repost it, so hopefully we can get some awareness out there.
