Typically, a baby shower is given by a close friend of the mom-to-be. Though showers can also be hosted by a sister or other close relative.
* The best thing to do is communication with your daughter-in-law's mother to see if she would like to give a baby shower and if not, then let her know you would like to give the baby shower. Generally the friends of the daughter-in-law will give a baby shower, but it's always nice when the mothers get involved. Both mothers could work together for a surprise baby shower.
There is no reason a mother can not give a baby shower for her daughter. However, generally one of her of her girlfriends may do this, but you could have a baby shower for the relatives in the family or simply decide to have the baby shower for her. Either way is etiquette.
TOTALLY
* It's an individuals choice and a second baby shower is acceptable. Afternoon baby showers are generally the most common.
No, it is not in poor taste to give your daughter a baby shower. You could invite close relatives and a few of her friends to the baby shower.

YOU MOST CERTAINLY DON'T GIVE A BABY RABBIT A SHOWER!!!! The mama will lick them clean. You could kill them trying to "clean" them.
well you should i mean like common courtesy but your not obligated to DO anything
Of course you can.
When someone gives you a baby shower a nice Thank You card is sufficient and you do not have to give them a gift.
Both parent's names should be included on a baby shower invitation if the party is a couple's baby shower (sometimes called a coed baby shower). Otherwise, only include the mom's name. For examples of couple's baby shower invites, see related link below.
If you gave a baby shower gift earlier than the due date of the baby shower then you do not need to give a gift, but if you just gave the gift not knowing about the baby shower you could give the mother to be a small gift for the baby.
