why not? Its not a mouse, a rabbit is huge.

as long as you have the bunny in a cage the cats cant get into. if you want to take it out and a cat tries to get the bunny, the bunny will run like hell. afterwords you can strongly discipline the cat so it knows not to get the bunny

Cats are predatory by nature. If it moves, they will pounce. (Google mountain lion attacks bikers to see what I mean) They are also very territorial. These same principals apply to a rabbit. It doesn't matter that the bunny is bigger than a mouse. The cat will be currious and will probably severely injure or kill the rabbit. If you keep the rabbit isolated from the cats the rabbit should be fine. (keep the bunny in a cage or in a room with the door closed at all times) Also, training the cats to avoid the rabbit through negative reinforcement (e.g. squirting the cat with water when they stalk or try to pounce the bunny, etc.) will help to propogate co-habitation. Do not leave the cats alone with the rabbit for any amout of time. If the rabbit is out, keep an eye on the cats

Don't be fooled into thinking the bunny is helpless. Rabbits fight like crazy and employ the same tactics to defend themselves. They can and will use their strong hind feet and sharp claws to thump a cat, roll it and rip at its stomach. Rabbits CAN and will kill a cat that attacks them or invades their territory. I have seen it happen.

Should the rabbit be a male with 2 male cats in the house?

Are we talking UNNEUTERED male cats, and UNNEUTERED male rabbit? You are leaving yourself open for a lot of spraying. Neutered males should be able to co-exist unless someone has a dominant intimidating personality, which can't be determined until they are all in the house together.

How many carrots can a rabbit eat in a day?

It depends on the rabbit's size and personality if he/she will eat it slowly or fast. Carrots are high in sugars and starches and should be limited in a rabbit's diet as a treat food. Carrot greens are excellent and can be included in the rotation of daily "salad" greens, but carrot itself should be limited: The House Rabbit Society recommends no more than 2 tablespoons per day of treat food (including carrot) for a normal, healthy 6 pound rabbit.
