OK in all seriousness, rabbits are pretty tough to deal with other than keeping your succulents out of reach, which generally translates into fencing or shelving, since rabbits do not jump or climb. Unlike rodents, a high fear level leaves rabbits difficult to trap. Sometimes, it pays to be creative.
