I honestly don't understand some of the worries and disdain towards little chocolate bunny pets. As I've seen a few point out as well, it is no different than the pet cats. You don't see cats everywhere, and probably a month after Easter the chocolate bunny pet hype with die down and you won't see quite as many. I also don't understand how it would devalue boss pets. When someone has a boss pet you know how hard they worked for it, if someone were to see a bunny pet all it would signify is that the person participated in the 2015 Easter event.

I did like the idea of having different colored ribbons for the bunnies to show level of accomplishment. Like maybe have the event set up to where if you do x amount of things you get a different colored ribbon. Or if you do it for x amount of hours the color of your ribbon changes.

I am most excited about the re-release of the old rewards (especially the bunny ears)!

I have a pet following me around most of the time. It was sooooo hard to get! I had to walk from the west of Varrock to the sawmill and back again! And talk to 2 npc's! One of them twice! Oh, AND I had to get me a bucket of milk and a sardine! Noooo to chocolate pets! They will devalue all the hard work I did to get me a pet cat!
End of sarcasm...

Honestly, NO ONE will think less of your boss pet simply because we all know how hard and frustating they can be to get. The first couple of days/weeks you'll see the bunnies everywhere, after that only occasionally. As others pointed out already: cats where the first pets ever in RS, they in no way devalue boss pets, and the bunnies will only show participation in the Easter 2015 event.

The event sounds like great fun. Keep up the good work! :D

I like the idea of a chocolate bunny pet... but giving it to every single person in the game? I don't know.

Remember that people only voted yes on the boss pets because they would be extremely rare.. they failed at first if I remember correctly.

However I do like the idea of the pet, I'm just not entirely sure about giving everyone it.
