Ha, I knew someone would ask. Okay, here goes, but let me just say, I don’t think it was that gross!
When I was living in Spain, I was getting pretty bored of the same old foods I was eating, so my roommates suggested I try cooking a rabbit. I bought a rabbit from the grocery store. It came completely whole, head, guts, and everything, but skinned. I chopped up the rabbit, fried all the meaty parts, and left the head and guts on a plate on the kitchen counter for clean up later.
After dinner, I returned to the kitchen to find…an empty plate? My roommate was also in the kitchen and I asked her if she knew what had happened to the rest of the rabbit. Just then, we heard some shuffling under the table. It was the cat, Mila, batting the rabbit’s head all over the floor. My roommate and I both went, “Eeee!” and I snatched the head away and tossed it in the trash.
But the cat wasn’t done yet. She was still playing with something. Something small, round, black… My roommate said, “Is that…is that an eye?!” Then, we both went, “Eee!” again. I grabbed the eye and tossed that too. Yech.
I think this story is pretty funny, but apparently some folks don’t like the thought of dismembered bunnies!
