Fluffy and Snowball made good target practise |
"The bunnies were meant to be feeders," Hilton explained in a reply Tweet to one of her followers. "I saw them at the pet store and they told me they were for snake food and I had to save them."
What about the snakes? Will no one think to save them?
Hilton posted a picture of her and eight members of her new litter. "They are all so happy, so nice to have changed their fate," she Tweeted.
But does that fate include becoming poster-rabbits for pet neglect? By the Easter Bunny's whiskers, we hope not. But Hilton's infamous for pet collecting. She's owned a kinkajou (which reportedly bit her) and once reportedly tried to buy a cheetah. And after an appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres Show in early 2008 when she said "I have 17 dogs, lots" Hilton was cited by the L.A. Department of Animal Services, E! News reports, because it's illegal to have more than three dogs in the city unless you're a licensed breeder.
Perhaps the snakes should count themselves lucky they don't look adorable in a Prada bag.
