Either way you’ll love the little animal like its your baby. A chinchilla is alot more money physically tho. If you purchase one its about $ 140 where as a rabbit you can buy for $ 20-50 depends kind
But please think about rescuing. You can also post an ad on craiglist if they need a home too but please be aware not all animals rescued are 100% healthy
Good luck!!! I did research for you. hahaa
