    What is the best way to get a new bunny?

    Craiglsit isn't mail order as far as I know I don't think you could ship a rabbit in the mail. The impression I got from their post was they were looking to adopt someone pet rabbit that they no longer wanted. With craiglist you would have to go and meet that person and where it lives.
