We briefly owned a rabbit when I was younger. The next door neighbour packed all her stuff up and moved to Perth and couldn't be bothered bringing most of her animals. She had a rabbit, 3 cats, and 2 dogs. She took the dogs and left the rest. Mum assumed the RSPCA would probably put them all down (they were all getting old), so we ended up with most of them.
The rabbit was absolutely dark magic. It got out twice, and we ended up building a little rabbit-run for it with chicken wire and wood. But we didn't do a good enough job, and it snuck out the corner. Everytime it ran away, it ended up in the yard of some kids down the road. Eventually mum decided it was too difficult and asked their parents, and then the rabbit became the kids problem!
