Maybe he hasn't been fed enough, maybe he's doing it for enjoyment; you can't really tell. All cats are different. Some like to hunt (and eat what they catch) more than others.

Can outdooor cats that hunt live with bunnies?

No, not really, unless of course if the rabbit is in a cage because a rabbit is a cat's natural prey, along with small rodents and birds. If a pet rabbit is allowed to roam with the cat, never leave them unattended. If the cat has grown up with the rabbit as a young kitten, the risk of the cat harming the rabbit is lower.
