Halloween Discussion Forums, Costumes, Horror!

Just thought I'd wish everyone here at Halloween Forums a Happy Easter!
Also I drew a quick sketch of my version of the Easter bunny, thought I would share here: http://mauevig.deviantart.com/art/Peter ... 1397973703

Hope you all have a great Easter filled with delicious treats!

I wasn't here on Easter Sunday, but happy Easter season to all!

I want a rabbit.

If you had one, what would you do with it?

Now, now Murph. Don't be like that. Although WILD rabbits are the closest game animal I've ever eaten that actually...."tastes like chicken" I'm talking about the tame kind, with floppy ears and twitchy noses.

To answer your question....


Play with it. Feed it carrots and stuff. Make my wife clean up the droppings. A rabbit can be like or dog or cat. Let it run around in the house. Let it crawl up next to you on the couch while you watch TV. That little nose is cute. Maybe even let it get in bed with us. The Mrs would NOT approve, but HEY! that's what having fun is all about LOL!!

Not sure I'd want one to be honest. I think the cats would try to eat it, and rabbits are a lot of work. I know that from past experience. I rather just admire someone else's pet rabbit, or a rabbit in the wild.

lol Pumpkinman my cousin thought it was creepy too. It wasn't my intention. I was going for cool, not creepy. Oh well.

I just wanted to clarify if you wanted to eat the rabbit or play with it. I have sometimes seen rabbit for sale in grocery stores (when I lived in Texas, not here).

One of my children had a friend who was allergic to dogs and cats, but he was able to have a pet rabbit, so he did. I know they can be cute pets.

Naw, the Mrs put her foot down when it comes to rabbits. I know a "crazy" rabbit lady who raises and shows them. She has one that's as big as a Great Dane!! First time I saw it I thought it was a dog. She gives it along with several other rabbits free reign of the house. You walk in the front door and you see pellets everywhere! LOL! I keep bugging my wife by saying I'm going to go get one. She replies...."You'll be sleeping in the garage if you do"

She can be a real kill joy. There was that place in North Carolina that sold wolf cubs. There was that place in Arkansas that sold mountain lion kittens. There was the time I caught a 4 foot alligator when we went to Florida. She said NO all three times. I just don't understand why!??

Domestic rabbit for human consumption is big in Eastern and Central Europe. Never have tried it though. Don't know of any places that sell it around here despite there being a pretty good sized population from the former Communist block living here. Hopefully most of the younger kids are too Americanized by now.

I never knew rabbits could get as big as dogs!

When my husband was stationed at Ft. Hood, Texas, we lived in Killeen. The next town over (to the west) was Copperas Cove, and every year they had a rabbit festival. It was during that time of year that I would see rabbit for sale at the grocery store.
