Beware Buyer: This Rabbit Comes DECEASED!, January 9, 2008
"By Beatle23 "beatle23" (Evanston, IL USA) - See all my reviews
I bought this thinking it would make a wonderful gift to my neighbor's young son. Ordering was simple, and delivery was flawless. So you can imagine the shock and awe not only on my face, but also my neighbor's 3-year-old son, when he opened the package to find a DEAD rabbit.
When I contacted Cloverdale about this issue, I found myself on hold for hours listening to John Tesh: Live at Red Rocks. After 3 hours on hold, I was asked to leave a message. Wait 3 hours and leave a message??
Suffice to say, I have not heard back from Cloverdale. Look closely people, nowhere on the page does it say that this rabbit comes DECEASED. To all of you looking for a fun pet, do not be deceived by Cloverdale's deception. This rabbit is NOT alive. It is DEAD. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews

Are you people freaking nuts?!!!, February 8, 2008
By D. Fontaine - See all my reviews
Do an Amazon search for "Easter", and what comes up, in addition to the nice Easter movies and such? A skinned dead rabbit. Are you people on crack?!!!! I'm sitting here browsing with my kids looking for a couple of Easter DVDs and this is what they see? Wake the hell up, Amazon!!!!

Nothing says "Eat Me" like a photo of a skinned rabbit carcass! Honestly, the photo just makes you hungry, doesn't it? It remained me of all of those times in biology class when I was so tempted to try a bite of the putrid fetal pig I was dissecting. Man, that takes me back!
