I made this with my kid in mind, so that they can have a good, safe place to look at memes, just made to make folks laugh and smile!
Only goofs & silliness. (:

Yeah in this case, dogs are easy mode. There are indeed some similarities between cats and rabbits, with two major differences:
Rabbits are 100% prey animals with all that entails (from eyes at sides of head, used to being ambushedand chased down - consider something as simple as what angle to approach them from, as opposed to animals with eyes in front of head used to chase and explore), and
People usually keep rabbits in cages where their only socialisation is "visits" once or twice a day, if that, and their frustration will build to incredible degrees when denied their need to roam and investigate and chew and burrow, and bond with their family. "Body doubling" where the rabbit can inspect the whole space while keeping an eye on you as you do some chill activity from a safe distance is important to build trust. Not keeping them confined to a cage while we go about our lives and think they'll have any trust in us whenever WE feel like picking them up for a cuddle.
We are the predators, it's up to us to make them feel safe.
