Pillow Bun

by Meg on March 5, 2007

Will you please check out the white guy on his back, schnozzle up, paws up, acting as a pillow for everyone else? Puh-lease. He’s all singing in a Enrique Eglesias voice: "I will be your pillow Behbeh!"

Shelly B., nice extra touch of yin-yang bunnery too.

Bun buns for ME!!!!!

Look at the little white bun’s teef and pawsies!

I’m gonna smush my face into the middle of all that bunnyness, and snorgle to my heart’s content.

By the way, I think the pillow guy is sayin’ “I can’t breave! Get offa my froat!”

9 Suda Nim 03.05.07 at 3:21 am

Why do little baby animals’ muzzles* turn pink when they’re sleepy? It’s, dare I say, CUTE?

*pronounced in my family as MOOOZ-lay.

This reminds me of the sea of bunnehs!

16 pyrit 03.05.07 at 3:46 am

Night-night little boudoir pillow bunnies.

17 Jules 03.05.07 at 3:51 am

*cries* Too preshus!

18 stina 03.05.07 at 3:54 am

Every time I visit CO, I babble on and on for ages afterwards about how I want a babeh bunneh. My husband is threatening to cut me off. :)

19 lauowolf 03.05.07 at 3:56 am

I want to nap cuddled up with sleeping bunnies as big as I am.
Big fuzzy warm bunnies honk shu-ing in my ears.

20 SeaBreeze 03.05.07 at 3:59 am

Bunbun bunbun bunbun bunbun bunbun bunbun POP goes my head! Cuteness extreme!! … sigh….

21 laura m. 03.05.07 at 4:07 am

every time i check this site, i go “well nothing can be cuter than the – OH MY GOD! THAT IS TEN TIMES CUTER!”

pretty soon, you guys will be up to a lethal level of cuteness.

22 mikaela 03.05.07 at 4:11 am

OMG!

I think I OVERLOADED!

23 chelsea 03.05.07 at 4:13 am

i can’t handle those teefs.

oh man!

24 Pamela 03.05.07 at 4:13 am

Oh My! I am at a lost for words. That is just beyond the cute!

25 Yitzysmommie 03.05.07 at 4:15 am

The pink feetsies with the wee toesies……

26 Tor 03.05.07 at 4:18 am

I think I see a spot–can I squirm into the bun pile too?

27 Suzanne 03.05.07 at 4:19 am

UHK…I think you’re right…

5 little bun buns sleepin’ in bed and the bottom one said…

Will you get off meh PUH-LEEEZE?

too too cute!

28 Aubrey 03.05.07 at 4:19 am

Cherish this moment, peeps. Revel in the innocence of bebeh bunnery; in no time at all they will lagomorph into young adult rabbits:

“Is this the little bun I carried?
Is this the little bun at play?
I don’t remember growing older,
When did they?

When did they learn the art of binking?
Seems like they couldn’t hop at all –
Wasn’t it yesterday when they were small?

Carrots, pellets, Carrots, pellets,
Swiftly flow the days,
Bebehs turn overnight to rabbits,
Soon forever leaving the cage . . .

Carrots, pellets, carrots, pellets!
Swiftly fly the years,
One season following another,
As rabbits bring joy and dry tears . . .

One season following another,
As rabbits bring joy and dry tears . . .”

29 R. Moore 03.05.07 at 4:24 am

GASP!!!

This reminded me that I had reoccurring dreams of baby bunnies when I was younger.

I wish all my reoccurring dreams were like that now, rather than nightmares of getting lost on campus and showing up late to a grumpy prof.

30 Suzanne 03.05.07 at 4:26 am

Aubrey, no “Bun’s in the Cradle”? :P

31 Yubi Shines 03.05.07 at 4:33 am

“…Can’t…breathe.”

32 lauowolf 03.05.07 at 4:33 am

Aubrey that’s wonderful.

33 wolfwhocriedboy 03.05.07 at 4:39 am

DUDE! Can I just curl up and die in the middle of that pile – PLEASE.

34 Angus and Misha 03.05.07 at 4:43 am

This is sooooooo cute. We are totally (and happily) conquered

35 Suda Nim 03.05.07 at 4:58 am

Aubrey — They’ll “lagomorph” into young adults?

I weeel keeel you.

36 Not That Mike The Other Mike 03.05.07 at 5:05 am

OK, Aubrey — try another one. I’ll get you started:

“Hutchmaker, hutchmaker, make me a hutch
Fill it with straw,
Cotton and such.
Bring out your tools and your magical touch,
To make me the perfect hutch.”

37 Shadyman 03.05.07 at 5:06 am

OMG

I will love him and hug him and call him George!

38 acelightning 03.05.07 at 5:23 am

I’m surprised nobody has mentioned what seems to be obvious – the one on the bottom is Mom, and the ones piling on are her almost-grown “babies”. Kinda like when your kids are teenagers, and some of them are in college, and everybody’s home on a holiday break, and the college kids bring a friend or six. But no matter how old your kids get, they’re never too old for a hug and/or snuggle from Mom. (Mine’s 28, and he still hugs me, and I hug him.)

39 pookiepuff 03.05.07 at 5:40 am

Bunny teefies are sooo silly! I love them! More bunny pictures pleeeease! I love bunnies!

40 E. Collison 03.05.07 at 5:56 am

“…the one on the bottom is Mom, and the ones piling on are her almost-grown “babies”.”

err… not to be pedantic or anything, but not exactly – those are all baby bunnies. when the moms nurse, they usually stand, and the babies lie on their backs and squirm around. When the babies are this little (under 10 days old), they lie in a pile with each other for warmth, as you can see…

41 Hazel 03.05.07 at 6:03 am

*speechless & gasping & amazed*

42 Aubrey 03.05.07 at 6:04 am

Nice work, NTMTOM, but no more Fiddling With The Cute for me tonight.

43 Martha in Washington 03.05.07 at 7:10 am

I would like to just dive in head first. But I won’t cause I’d squish ‘em. Maybe I’ll just sloooowly sneak up and geeeently lay my head on top and sooooftly snore along with them.

44 Martha in Washington 03.05.07 at 7:11 am

If I were a rich man I’d buy lots o’bunnehs to snorgle all day with.

45 jamela 03.05.07 at 7:14 am

awwwww…. can we pweeease have an extweeme toofy cwoseup pweety pweeese? fank u

46 The Honourable Gladys Anstruther 03.05.07 at 7:21 am

47 Gina 03.05.07 at 8:48 am

The pinks bits in this photo and peacefully closed eyes are driving me crazy…

48 TAJ 03.05.07 at 8:59 am

Ack! Teeny-tiny-baby-bunny-ears!

TOOOOOOOOO Cute!

49 book_monstercats 03.05.07 at 9:43 am

It took me about 30 seconds to see the pillow-bun.

Then I died!!!

The teefs (sobs)

50 Christy 03.05.07 at 10:52 am

Awww. They’re so little and soft and snuggly!

51 Juniorette 03.05.07 at 11:41 am

Awwwwww. That’s like, the second-best thing to wake up to on my birthday. <3

52 kgirl81 03.05.07 at 11:58 am

OMG. The teeths. The pawsitude. The muuzzzlleeeeppoooooouuccchh *splodes*.

‘Scuse me while I go and clean myself up…..

53 Sheenanana 03.05.07 at 12:45 pm

Speaking of bunnies, what happened to the bunbun with the crown on? I can’t find him anywhere! :(

54 jeremiah johnson 03.05.07 at 12:46 pm

“i will be your pillow behbeh” is the cutest thing about this post, and that’s saying something.

55 jen 03.05.07 at 1:22 pm

O M G this has got to be one of the cutest photos ever. check out the little toofies! they look so warm and sweet and peaceful. i want to snuggle with them!!! i’m feeling faint! awwwk!! *passes out*

58 layla42 03.05.07 at 2:02 pm

My day’s just starting and my head has already asploded.

59 PuppyMomma 03.05.07 at 2:04 pm

Oh! The feet! The feet!

60 Redzilla 03.05.07 at 2:18 pm

Stupid alarm!! Snooze! Snooze!
[snorgles back into bunny pile, using a pair of bunnies over the eyes to block out the cruel sunshine of Monday morning.]

61 sydney 03.05.07 at 2:26 pm

O M G Doesn’t get any cuter than that. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSWEET.

62 Mimi 03.05.07 at 2:29 pm

Must snorgle bun buns now!!!

63 sydney 03.05.07 at 2:36 pm

That is so funny and cute. He’s got his dukes up ready to pop someones lights out.

64 BunFF 03.05.07 at 2:40 pm

O….M….Gawd!!!

OH this made me seek out Max for bunneh snorgles…now i’m getting the “back feet flick” (aka, the Bunneh F-YOU!) all the way back across the room…but, it was sooooo worth it!

65 Christine 03.05.07 at 2:52 pm

I’m confoozed. I have never seen a rabbit with pink feet, or toes…or paws that aren’t furry. Are we sure these are bunnies? I know that sounds stupid but I have had rabbits all my life and never seen rabbit feets like that. Help!

66 BunFF 03.05.07 at 2:59 pm

These baby bun’s are at most 7-10 days old…and are perfectly normal. Most people have never seen buns at this stage unless you’re a breeder or a rescuer (i am happily the latter)

here are some more baby bunnehs…

67 Subhangi 03.05.07 at 2:59 pm

OMG BUNBUN OVERLOAD.

68 anner 03.05.07 at 3:18 pm

Aubrey – beautiful, beautiful, beeeeeyoooteeful!

69 Redzilla 03.05.07 at 3:29 pm

Call de police. BunFF and her linkage have keeled me. So many soft, pinky, warm little buns.

70 Aunty-G 03.05.07 at 3:31 pm

sooo schweeettt; and look, too young to disapprove!11!!

71 zeldapie 03.05.07 at 3:41 pm

Softest
bunnies
ever!!

72 bunnyslave 03.05.07 at 4:03 pm

Aubrey, your song made me get all goose-bumpy remembering bunny babyhood. Now my tiny little handful is ENORMOUS!!!

*head explodes*

73 sydney 03.05.07 at 4:42 pm

I overloaded and I can’t get up.

74 book_monstercats 03.05.07 at 5:11 pm

Has anybody got a link to Desdemona, the biscuit (or cookie, depending which side of the pond you’re on) stealing bunny and (most important) the guy who’s impersonating her? My link has disappeared.

75 Theo 03.05.07 at 5:20 pm

Book MC — here’s the first one…
http://mfrost.typepad.com/cute_overload/2005/12/c_is_for_cookie.html

…having some trouble finding the dude imitating Desi, tho. This is where it WAS, anyway:

76 Minifey 03.05.07 at 5:32 pm

That has got to be the cutest thing ever. My heart squeezed a little.. ya know what I mean??

Great caption Meg!

77 Chris B. 03.05.07 at 6:15 pm

This could be a picture from my house. Eleven days ago my ‘boy’ bunny had ten babies. So far seven have survived and look just like these. They are so soft and snuggly and are starting to move around. My momma bunny is actually named Snorgle Bunny because she is so snorgleably soft.

78 Faekitty (Heather) 03.05.07 at 6:36 pm

*Honk-shuu, honk-..shuuu…*…-meep-…*teeny paw wiggle, shiftshift*….

*honk-shuuuu…*

79 Tor 03.05.07 at 6:43 pm

Cookie-stealing bunny has been my desktop wallpaper on my work laptop forevvs–makes quite a statement when I give a presentation, ‘specially during budget season.

On the laptop I take when I travel, though, I like to share (also from the archives):
http://mfrost.typepad.com/cute_overload/2005/12/delicious.html
before launching into my Keynote. That tongue still slays me! My best holiday present that year…

80 sydney 03.05.07 at 7:38 pm

BunFF you are the lucky one to have such cuties. I’m lucky enough to have jack rabbits in my yard but of course I sadly can’t pet them. I’ve tried.

81 Christine 03.05.07 at 7:40 pm

Phew, thanks BunFF! That link was educational as well as adorable. The chub! The chub!

82 layla42 03.05.07 at 8:31 pm

BunFF–you have keeled me. Such soft, snorgle-able babies!
It’s making a rough day better just looking at the velvety softness.

83 Kim 03.05.07 at 9:00 pm

OMG!!!!! THE CUTEST OVERLOAD IN THE HISTORY OF OVERLOADS.

84 Kate 03.05.07 at 9:25 pm

I literally let out a “oooh!” because the cuteness was just too much. That bun bun gets an A++ for cutest muzzle and teefs eva’

85 fionnmhaith 03.05.07 at 9:48 pm

I literally snorted after reading “He’s all singing in a Enrique Eglesias voice: ‘I will be your pillow Behbeh!’”

Too funny!

86 Mia 03.05.07 at 10:01 pm

OMG, soooo sweet! But, dare I say, aren’t there actually 7 buns in there? See the little arc of brown on the bottom next to the brown & white one, and the bottom right corner looks like another brown & white ear that wouldn’t go with the others’ heads. So…

bun bun bun bun bun bun bun!!!

87 useta hada kitteh 03.06.07 at 3:10 am

Mia — well, you know how it is with bunnehs. Turn your back for a minute, and there’s another one.

88 Suzie 03.06.07 at 7:00 am

When my eyes reached the bun with the little mouf and nose showing I started babbling incoherently…just before my head exploded from such cuteness! CAN’T STAND IT! DON’T LOOK AT IT ANYMORE!

89 Mary 03.06.07 at 11:34 am

Just what I need on a cold morning, a basket of warm buns… :-)

90 Arvay 03.07.07 at 3:59 am

How terrifying! Savage beasts!

91 jennine 03.07.07 at 7:32 am

jebus, there oughtta be a law.

92 Carrie Neeson 03.07.07 at 4:08 pm

OK here’s what we need to do: make 1000′s of copies of this picture and drop it by air over the Middle East and other hot spots around the world. Then, instead of saying “I hate you because you’re Jewish/Muslim/Shiite/ Sunni/funny-looking/from the wrong tribe…”
How can people hate others so much when they live in a world where such sweet innocence exists? Good question.

93 Audrey 03.07.07 at 10:40 pm

Carrie? That is seriously ingenious!

94 Josh Scholar 03.08.07 at 6:35 am

Too bad Escher never got to see this picuture or he would have been inspired to make a tiling of bunny cuteness.

95 emaleika 03.09.07 at 12:26 am

so sweet!

96 book_monstercats 03.09.07 at 11:23 am

Thanks for the link to Desi, Theo. Now I’m happy. Sadly couldn’t get the link to the guy impersonating her, but hey, as Meatloaf nearly said, “one out of two ain’t baaaaad”.
