I go to market auctions all the time... weekly in the summer. I watch hundreds of rabbits, ducks, etc. get auctioned off to become someone's stew.

Mmmmmmmm wabbit hehh hehh hehh hehh.
Personally, I'd rather have them run around loose for a few months - farm raised rabbits are too fatty for my liking.

I see cuter rabbits than Toby heading for food every week.

It's probably a scam. He's donating money to himself.

He's quite open about the fact that the money is going to him. He's not claiming to be a registered charity, or anything. That would be fraud. What he's doing is perfectly legal, although it is ethically extortion. Doesn't fall under that law, though.
 
This was on Oberman (MSNBC) tonight. It was the first time I heard of it. As horrible as it is, I couldn't help but laugh as the sadistic side of me continued to read through the photo album and hate mail. I wonder if a dog with a broken leg would work...pay the vet bills, and my dog sitting fees or the dog goes down..

The guy claims he is up to $25,000 now although you still can't pay him through paypal. Unbelievable if/that idiots actually sent this guy money.
 
I saw that site when it first went up. now if you look he has made over $24,000! But it still says he is unable to receive money. What is up with that?
 
Can't claim this is my recipe but if Toby likes red wine:

HASENPFEFFER
Braised Rabbit in Spiced Red Wine Sauce

1/2 lb. lean bacon, finely chopped
2 2- 1/2 to 3 lb. fryer rabbits, cut into serving pieces.
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup minced shallots or onions
1/2 tsp. finely chopped garlic
1 cup dry red wine
1 cup chicken stock
2 tbls. brandy
1 tsp. currant jelly
1 small bay leaf
1/8 tsp. dried rosemary
1/8 tsp. dried thyme
2 tsp. fresh lemon juice

In a heavy 5 qt. flameproof casserole, cook the bacon over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until crisp. Spread the bacon out on a double thickness of paper towels to drain and set the casserole with the bacon fat aside.
Wash the rabbit pieces under cold water and pat thoroughly dry. Sprinkle with the pieces with salt and pepper, then dip into flour and shake off any excess.
Heat the bacon fat in the casserole over high heat until it sputters. Add the rabbit, a few pieces at a time and brown on all sides, regulating the heat so that they brown quickly and evenly without burning. As they are done, transfer the pieces to a plate. Pour off all but 2 tbls. fat from the casserole and in it cook the shallots/onions and garlic, stirring frequently, for 4 or 5 minutes until the onions are soft and transparent but not brown. Pour in the wine and stock, and bring to a boil over high heat, scraping in any brown bits clinging to the bottom and sides of the pan. Stir in the brandy, currant jelly, bay leaf, rosemary and thyme, and return the rabbit and any juices collected around it to the casserole. Add the drained bacon, cover the casserole tightly and bake in a 350 oven for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until the rabbit is tender but not falling apart.
(Young fryer rabbits cook in about an hour). Pick out the bay leaf, stir in the lemon juice and taste for seasoning. The sauce should be quite peppery.
Serve the rabbit directly from the casserole or arrange on a deep heated platter and pour the sauce over. Noodles or German Spatzle (Tiny Dumplings) are excellent with this recipe. Serves 6 to 8.
