A number of years ago I had a pet rabbit, Mr. Bunny. I know, really unique name, but if you know anything about rabbits then you know they don't mature for a while, so I thought he was a Miss there until I got a little surprise one day, thus the name change. Ebony was just to girlie for a Mister. Mr. B was with us for 11 years. He was a tough little guy, but very sweet. So I have a soft spot for this cute bunny paw pendant from Puppy Paws:

Puppy Paws Inc - fine jewelry for people who love animals - is pleased to introduce its new Bunny Tracks Pendant.

The Bunny Tracks Pendant was created after Puppy Paws received a special request from members of The National House Rabbit Society. "The members loved our Puppy Paws" explained Pamela Meltzer, President of Puppy Paws Inc. "Puppy Paws are paw-shaped jewelry that feature a simple paw in 14k or sterling silver. The paws are accented with gemstones or crystals that represent the dog or cat's birthday and the House Rabbit folks wanted something just as nice."

The Bunny Tracks Pendants are made in sterling silver and 14K gold, and can have gemstones added. 15% from every bunny pendant sold by Puppy Paws is sent to the national House Rabbit Society. "We left the back of the pendant flat so people can have the name of their rabbit engraved to personalize each piece." Bunny Track Pendants are about ¾" x ½" x 1/8". They retail from $29.00 in sterling silver to $249.00 in 14k white or yellow gold. A simple 18" chain is included.

The House Rabbit Society is a publicly supported non-profit organization with chapters in all 50 states. The goal of HRS is to educate the public about the responsibilities involved in keeping a companion rabbit before a rabbit is brought home often during the Easter holiday. Every year, unwanted, former Easter rabbits fill local rabbit rescues and humane societies. For more information about the National House Rabbit Society you can find their website at http://www.rabbit.org/.

Puppy Paws, Inc. is a Pittsburgh-based designer of fine jewelry for animal lovers. The Puppy Paws Collection features a "uni-species" paw available in either sterling silver, white gold or yellow 14k gold, available online at www.puppypaws.com, and in select jewelry stores and pet boutiques throughout the United States and Canada.

And, let me add my two more cents here. I loved my rabbit and he was with me for many years, but that is because I took really, really good care of him. And, care he did take. You'd think something so small (he was a dwarf rabbit of about 3 pounds) wouldn't take so much attention and care, but it is so not true. Therefore, unless you are ready to take on the huge responsibility, buy a gold fish, not a rabbit.
