Second thought - are you a vegetarian?
I've personally gone to a restaurant before and ordered rabbit. I have every reason to believe that the bunny that I ate was as cute as Toby. If you aren't comfortable with that fact, then you shouldn't eat meat.

Put in a crock pot
smother in barbecue sauce and turn on. Come back several hours later. Enjoy with beer.

Vegetarian? There may be a way around that ...
Hey, if we apply this Toby idea to the Terri Schiavo case, would the resulting recipes be considered vegetarian-friendly?

Well, some say she is a vegetable.
Others say she is a big green iguana.
No, I don't think so.

I am not a vegetarian
I just hate extortion. Killing a rabbit for food, fine. Having a rabbit as a pet - no problem. Killing your pet rabbit to earn money? Sick bastard. "There oughta be a law"

There are stories of people unable to eat pork.
This is because they had or have a pet pig.

So is it legal?
Someone said the PayPal account has been inactivated. My work filter blocked it as both Phishing and Fraud. My wife thought it was animal cruelty.
I agree it's sick and twisted, but is it illegal? And (subjectively) is it "wrong"?

It is legal.
Paypal has been hit by thousands of hits to e-mail and complaints through web about it.
It is no different than raising a pig/cow/sheep/chicken/turkey/<insert meat animal made from meat> for slaughter.
He has only done one thing different, the appearance that he "loves" this bunny. I am sure he loves this rabbit... but for the taste of the flesh. So far, he *IS* just stating fact, that unless he gets the $50K he will eat this rabbit he has raised for slaughter. If he gets the $50K he will then probably purchase a alternative rabbit pre-slaughtered, but probably raised in horrible conditions.
Think about it, once you get over your repulsion. He OWNS this rabbit, his intention is to raise it for slaughter. Does that remind you of the "4H" clubs across America? And the "First of Class" gets "First to slaughter" and "First to the pot".
Nope, false dichotomy, the ideas that this is horrid, vs the reality of the situation being "Normal" aka "Tasty"

You gave your father a birthday hard?
Damn, I've changed my mind. I don't want to hear any more stories of your mis-spent youth.
