Obviously, he loves his wife but he is also a bit worried about the cultural distance there is between the two of them. While the most logical deduction here should not be eating the rabbit, it is worthwile both as a joke and as a telltale sign of his fear of the unpredictable aspects of his wife's sociocultural background. He therefore prefers to be on the safe side and warns her beforehand.
On the other hand, we might also be suspicious of a burning desire in his subconscious to eat that rabbit. Rabbit symbolizes some sort of a bounty a winnable asset. It might have gone through his own mind beforehand, maybe in childhood.
The rabbit and wife duality could also be symbolizing a mental process. Accrdingly, the rabbit might be symbolizing the freedom he enjoyed before his marriage, his younger days which he is afraid of parting now, as a result of this abrupt radical change in his life. That his wife could eat the rabbit might actually be associated with his fear about her taking over the rest of his life. The choice of rabbit as the symbol of as something that is in jeopardy might either indicate a deep rooted homosexuality or a sever lack of compassion in childhood. Children who crave for affection in childhood are afraid of losing their belongings. They never discard objects belonging to them even if they have become completey unuseful through extensive use. They may also develop obsessive feelings towards their family members or friends. In many situations a split personality might also develop. I would like to draw your attention to the similarity between a rabbit and a bridal gown. Chances are that his other personality might be planning to harm his wife and as tpyically happens in these situations, it attempts to put the blame of that offense on another person. She therefore becomes both the victim and the murderer in his thoughts.
