No offense but you're being somewhat alarmist here. I think an accurate assessment of what articles and research on the matter say is that if you have to choose 1 without any other info than that it's for a cat, then go with a wet food from a good brand because it's the least likely on balance of probability to cause a problem.
That doesn't mean that it's the best choice for every cat, or that dry food will in any way whatsoever be detrimental to the health of your cat. If you're going with a reputable brand either will be equally good for most cats - and a good dry food is much better than a cheap wet food.
Like I said though, paying attention to your cats, and regular vet checkups are far more important than just picking a type of food. If your cat is not getting sufficient water your vet should pick it up and he/she will recommend going onto a wet diet. If your cat has dental problems, the your vet will likely recommend going on to a dry diet. I've asked two different vets about this and both concurred: It's pretty much a non-issue unless you're picking up specific problems. Go with a good, reputable brand, come in for regular check ups (or if you notice something not right) and you're golden.

Rabbits are not rodents. They are Lagomorphs.
They were reclassified from rodents in 1912 apparently.
PS: My brother-in-law has a dwarf rabbit as pet. They are pretty enamoured with the thing. I can't say I really see the appeal over a cat or dog, but it is cute and cuddly. Different strokes for different folks I guess.
