Easter and Christmas are two of our favourite times of year for one key reason: the sheer amount of chocolate we get given.
And now your beloved pets can join in on the fun too, as Pets at Home have just announced that they're selling animal-friendly Easter eggs for your darling cats, dogs and rabbits.
All fully edible, prices start at a very decent £2 for the dandelion leaf rabbit and yogurt and catnip cat editions, and stretching up to £6 for dogs and their peanut butter carob chocolate.
While the cat and dog versions are purely for them, the rabbit ‘Hoppy’ egg can also be shared out amongst guinea pigs, hamsters, mice and gerbils too.
The dandelion leaf flavoured egg - which has been hand foiled in Lancashire and made using only the finest ingredients - is best served broken up into small pieces as part of a balanced diet, it isn't suitable for animals under three month’s old.

Dr Kerlien Heyrman, Head of Pets at Home said: “Pets are family members and naturally people want to treat them with something special at Easter, but chocolate can be hazardous as it contains ingredients which are toxic, causing serious consequences to animals.
For those who want to treat their rabbit this Easter, our ‘Hoppy’ Easter Egg is a tasty treat made with natural ingredients that are safe for pets.”
Pets at Home's creation follows a similar product launch last year by B&M , who started selling Easter eggs for your cats and dogs.
