This seems to come up about once per month. I'm sick of toby. I want to slit his throat, skin him, gut him, and cook him up with some nice homemade gravy.

I support all of this, except the eating part - rabbit is still meat and I'm a wussy vegetarian.

I'm just desperately curious to see if he'll do it. His merchandising is amazingly, mercilessly professional, so much so that I'm wondering if he's going to use this to set up a small business or something. But people cannot give money to this cause. It'll just establish precedent - anyone can threaten to kill a cute animal they don't care about online and use it to get money from idiots.

Savetoby.com has been around for ages...I'm sure I heard somewhere that the guy just extends the deadline when it gets close.

Fraud.

Regardless, the joke is tasteless emotional blackmail.

Don't give them any more attention. They've already gotten more than they deserve.

I am in Turkey. There are rabbits in the spice market that people are buying to cook up. They are buying cute, adorable bunnies to eat.

OH NOES! THERE ARE A GAJILLION TOBYS!

Alright folks, before you donate money, let me remind you that killing Toby is illegal, and because of this website they are watching the owner very carefully. He will not be killing Toby

As the urbanlegends website says there used to be a disclaimer at the bottom of the page. The text was something like "No guarantees are given that the rabbit will really be consumed or actually exists" if I recall correctly (the thing is *old*).

In any case, many rabbits are eaten daily. I do not see why this one would be special.

Oh, no! Toby! That poor, innocent rabbit! He's actually gonna kill him and eat - oh, piss. You know what? I just remembered: I don't give a shit. Sucks to be Toby.

Not if he lets Toby go during rabbit season, gives him a hundred-meter head start on a .38 cal Springsfield, and then sprays his little rabbit brains all over the lawn.

Good for him....

NOW: I will go deer hunting and kill up to the limit to feed my craving for deer meat. The way to stop me is to raise 300,000 before deer season begins. So, all you bleeding hearts had better open up your wallets and give or I will shoot Bambi.

Oh, weapons recomendations? I was thinking sks, turk mauser, or desert eagle. :D
