[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, this is ridiculous.  It's a bunny, not a human.

If you want professional quality care for your pet, hire a professional.  If you want to pay a 10 year old $5 a day, live with the consequences.

Don't pretend this is some kind of unforgivable mistake - it was a moment of bad judgment by a child.[/quote]

Say, the children were pet-sitting a cat or a dog, and the animal got away. Would you also say 'this is ridiculous'? After all, it's a dog, not a human.

OP, my DD loves rabbits, so I feel for you and your kids. Sorry it happened.. I'd be pissed off, too.[/quote]

We've lost more than one of our cats after they ran out the door.  Yes, we looked for them, but never found them.  If it happened while someone was catsitting, well, we'd be upset, but accidents happen.  Pets are still wild animals.  [/quote]

No, they aren't. Pets are domesticated animals.

It's really not right to minimize OP's sadness and upsettedness over her lost pet. This rabbit was obviously much loved by OP and by her child.

I don't know what I would do in this situation. Put up fliers in the neighborhood, to be sure. Can you knock on neighbors' doors and ask if they've seen your rabbit as well - do you feel comfortable doing that? I would also reach out to local media in that area - they might not pick up the story, but they might, and it'd be an easy way to amplify your search efforts. Also call local shelters to see if anyone has brought in your pet.

There's no point in being furious at the family. They screwed up, and I'm sure they feel terrible already. [/quote]
