So, I manage to solve my problem with this approach:

Created one AsyncTask for drawing

private class DrawRabbit extends AsyncTask {    
     private int fps = 24;
     private int frame = 10014;
     private String drawableName; 
     @Override
       protected Void doInBackground(Void... params) {
         while (running){
           try {  
            if (frame == 10014)
              Thread.sleep(1000);
            else 
              Thread.sleep(fps);
          if (frame < 10160) { 
            frame++;
            publishProgress(frame);
          }
          else 
            running = false;

        } catch (InterruptedException e) { 
          e.printStackTrace();
        }
         }           
         return null;
       }

       protected void onProgressUpdate(Integer... frame) {
         drawableName = "rm" + frame[0];
         int res_id = getResources().getIdentifier(drawableName, "drawable", getPackageName());        
           rabbitFrame.setBackgroundResource(res_id);
       }   
   }

and start it onWindowsFocusChanged

public void onWindowFocusChanged(boolean hasFocus) {    
    super.onWindowFocusChanged(hasFocus);         
    if (hasFocus)
      new DrawRabbit().execute((Void)null) ;
    else 
      running = false;
    Log.d(TAG,"onFocusChanged");
  }

Hope it helps someone!
