Take it from me -- I share my house with four rabbits, and at times, it's like having four toddlers in the house. I love them. But I would never, never, never recommend a rabbit as a pet for a child. Rabbits are very cute, and very soft --- but most often, they don't enjoy being held, hate being picked up, and they can get very frightened and unhappy if someone tries to handle them. And don't get me started on cages ---- suffice to say, Nature designed the rabbit to run. Having a rabbit stay in a cage is like a person who is living in their bathroom. Literally.
ok -- rant done. But if anyone would like more information, here's a PDF of a flyer from House Rabbit Society about rabbits and Easter. Pass the word, please!!

That is so sad! I had no idea so many rabbits are abandoned every year. I use to know someone who kept rabbits, so I know what it's like and it's the reason I've never committed to getting a rabbit. They are wonderful creatures, but a lot of work.
