2011 first stamp issue by Pos Malaysia is on the topic of children's pets. Officially launched in Muzium Negara (the National Museum), three different cute and cuddly pets are featured in the stamps – the domestic rabbit (60 sen), domestic cat (80 sen) and the domestic dog (RM1.00). 2011 is the Year of the Rabbit, hence it's good to see that rabbit is included in this issue. The miniature sheet issue however, featuring rabbit itself, was really meant to usher the Year of Rabbit in 2011.
