Here's an ingenious way to raise money: Hold your household pets for ransom!

[Killer Kitten]

I'm thinking he'd raise a lot more money if he used a small child instead of a rabbit.

(I can see the humor in most things, but this website really pushed my pissoff button. Guess I've done shelter & rescue work a bit too long for this to be funny.)

Oh shit, that's retarded.

Rabbits are tasty creatures.

That was so funny

Good lord, that's messed up. That, and he's made like 20k off of it.

Poor Toby. :cry:

I love the recipes!

Toby Con Fit

Place Toby's legs together with the sliced garlic and rock salt in a bowl overnight. The next day, rinse with cold water and pat dry with a clean tea towel. Heat the fat/lard in a deep oven proof dish and add Toby's legs. Bring to a simmer and place in the oven. Cook for 90 minutes, until soft at 180 degrees celsius. Drain off fat and reserve. Remove the flesh from the cooled bones and mix with the sauteed leek, bacon and spices. The Pastry Combine all ingredients and knead to a smooth dough. Roll the dough into a rectangle 20cm wide and 2-3mm thick. Place a line of filling onto the pastry and roll forward to create a sausage roll like pastry, brushing with egg wash to seal and glaze. Prepare The Sauce Saute Toby's bones in a little olive oil. Add the vegetables and thyme, saute until golden. Deglaze with brandy and add the stock, simmer for 20 minutes, strain and reduce to a good flavour. Dust the foie gras with a little flour, gently spanking off the excess. Heat the butter in a hot non-stick pan over medium-high heat and sear the foie gras for about 30 seconds per side, until browned. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.

Oops, my bad, never saw this other thread. Still pissed off about the whole thing, tho.

Makes me wonder how much somebody could raise if they threatened to kill a little kid picked at random, and how long it would take the police to shut them down.

Though, if it was just an empty threat, what would the person be charged with?

Kimm, bunnyhugger.

Newsflash. It is LEGAL to kill a rabbit. It is also legal to eat one. In fact, they sell it at the local supermarket here.

Personally, if I had a taste for rabbit, I'd much rather have one that was raised in captivity, eating a balanced diet and given decent medical care and clean bedding (like Toby) than some warehouse rabbit that's been living in a filthy, tiny cage along with 5 or 10 other rabbits all fighting each other for a spot to shit in.

There is absolutely nothing illegal about what he's doing (even though I -believe- Snopes has already discredited it).

Distasteful maybe. Illegal, no.

Oh Christ (http://www.snopes.com/critters/crusader/savetoby.asp).

PS: If this pisses you off, don't look up Bonsai Kittens.

Rabbit tastes surprisingly like chicken. In a good mushroom sauce it can truly be delicious. Only problem is is that there is not that much meat on it. I can make an excellent rabbit cream of mushroom stew.

I posted that link like at least more than yesterday-ago.

I like those whole, skinned rabbits that they sell in Stew Leonard's that look like a giant fetus.
