I think the poster responded your question. The distinction made was that a rabbit is alive, but a rock is not.
I suppose then that an important distinction is that a rabbit has specific biochemical processes occuring within its components while a rock does not (while organic material could exist within a rock, the organic material would itself not be a part of the rock).

What is the distinction between a rabbit and a rock? "A rabbit floats!"
"Yeah, it floats!"
