Our bunny loves sitting in my husband's lap. She's a Dutch rabbit ..from the pound
She does her "Binkys" when we get up in the morning. Naturally, she's spoiled.

I had many rescued rabbits- ones who were gotten as pets for kids who usually dont appreciate the way that rabbits live. The dont make good pets for most people. They dont get to go out on a leash although they can be taught to do that.
Mostly they get relegated to an outdoor hutch and then forgotten. So many rabbits die from neglect in outdoor cages! No water, no straw for warmth- just a wire floor, no fresh food just pellets. Its terrible.
