A Rabbit with a Job
Mr. McGregor is a rabbit trained to be part of the magic show at a kids party. Rabbits are used in magic shows, because they have a natural ability to sit still. A rabbit can sit in a hiding place until the moment when the magician “pulls the rabbit out of a hat”. Mr. McGregor does a great job at a kids party for this reason, but also because he’s a rabbit who enjoys getting affection from kids.
Unlike every other rabbit though, after a hard day working at parties for kids, this rabbit heads home to spend the rest of the day playing in his indoor rabbit playground or munching on grass outside.

Pull a rabbit from a hat
Pulling a rabbit from a top hat is considerably the most iconic trick of a magician. A puppet or plush rabbit is commonly used nowadays, due to the required care of using a live rabbit. Using a live rabbit in a magic show not only requires the proper care of the rabbit day-to-day at home, but also the proper transportation of the rabbit to the kids party, temporary housing during the entertainment, and handling of the rabbit during the magic trick. Pulling a rabbit from a hat is very difficult to do in a way that does not cause distress to the rabbit. Firstly, a rabbit needs to be hidden in a suitable sized space for only a very short period of time and secondly a rabbit definitely cannot be lifted by it’s ears or by the scruff of it’s neck. A magician must find a trick which is suitable for the proper care of a rabbit, which does not necessarily involve “pulling a rabbit from a hat”.
How to lift a rabbit
An Animal Hospital Technician for Expert Village explains how to properly carry a rabbit, “When you are picking up your rabbit up, you always want to make your rabbit feel safe. Rabbits are ground dwelling creatures by nature. They do not really like being picked up very much, but as long as you keep them comfortable and keep them feeling safe, they are generally okay with it. When you are picking up your rabbit, you want to support the front end, and you also very carefully want to support the back end. Your rabbit should never be picked up by its ears or the scruff of its neck, as this can scare it, and rabbits can kick hard enough to break their own back. So when holding your rabbit, you always want to make sure you have one hand around their front, generally around their shoulders, and you want one hand around their rear end. This way you are keeping the rabbit close to you, and your rabbit feels comfortable and safe.”
