Do rabbits like being stroked?

Do you mean kissed sort of like a dog? Not really. Kissing an animal usually applies a little bit of liquid wherever the animal is kissed, and if you kiss a rabbit on the nose, liquid gets on it's whiskers. Whiskers are intended to help an animal sense certain things, and having liquid on them is sort of like having dust in your eyelashes: annoying. Kissing a rabbit usually ends up making the rabbit flinch, and how much depends on how calm the rabbit is typically. If the rabbit usually doesn't react to anything, most likely the same will happen here; but if your rabbit is very frisky, expect a rather spastic reaction.

What is frank the rabbit truly in Donnie darko?

Tricky question. Depends on how you choose to read the movie ... SCI FI EXPLANATION - Because the real Frank (who you see near the end get shot in the eye) dies in the "Tangent Universe" (meaning he dies after the point where the jet engine lands on Donnies house) his future self somehow is able to reappear as a ghost like figure and guide Donnie toward his destiny - ie. sending the jet engine back and therefore closing the rip in time and making things right again. This is as defined by the sci fi rules set out in the "Philosophy of Time Travel" (kind of a compendium to the move - pages are displayed on screen in the directors cut). SPIRITUAL EXPLANATION - He represents a divine intervention. Be it God, an angel, an alien? ... who is also trying to guide Donnie. The being has chosen the form of Frank so that when the time comes Donnie will recognise that Frank is the one he has to shoot. LOGICAL EXPLANATION - He is a figment of Donnies imagination, because he is crazy as batshit. There's probably other ways to look at it too.

Where can you get your rabbit neutered when the vet doesn't do rabbits?

Yes, a rabbit-savvy veterinarian can do it. It is recommended to do it as early as possible, as it has lots of benefits : a neutered/spayed rabbit will stop marking it's territory, will have less aggressive behaviors and destructive habits (chewing everything, etc) and it will extend it's lifespan, among other things.

Rabbits will still mark their territory even if they have been neutered. It is something all rabbit do, a wild rabbit trait. They just might not do it by spraying, they will still urinate and defecate to let other rabbits know they are there and they are patroling their area. Neutering a rabbit will not curb it's chewing behavior.

How do rabbits survive winter?

In summer they turn brown, but in winter they turn white.

That's true of some wild breeds, but not pet rabbits.

Generally speaking, mammals (including rabbits) adapt to cold weather by burning more protein and carbohydrates, and growing thicker fur.

Pet rabbits that live outdoors might benefit from a slightly different diet than indoor bunnies (like alfalfa hay, instead of just grass hay, and a different kind of pellet).

But pet bunnies don't adapt to freezing cold weather: they get hypothermia and die. Even if it's not that cold, rain and wind can lead to hypothermia.

If you have outdoor bunnies, you should make sure they have proper shelter. In the winter, you may have to bring them inside. See the related questions below for more info and helpful links.
