Frolicking Little Hos

by Meg on May 4, 2008

Kettlesnout Shetland Pony Stud has some frolicking foal action going on—most recently, "Bambi" and "Cinderella" the knobbular foals who are obviously part stuffed animal.

Bambi and Cindi are spoken for, but Kettlesnout expects more foals this year. More miniature redonkulousness at the Gallery! Thanks to Sender-Inner Andrea ;)

Wuss!

2 Creepy Sheep 05.04.08 at 9:12 pm

Sorry, I regressed, I never could say “horse” when I was little…

3 Barbara 05.04.08 at 9:22 pm

I want one of these SO MUCH, OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

4 Michelle 05.04.08 at 9:37 pm

OMG PONIES!!1

5 Andi 05.04.08 at 9:44 pm

haha “part stuffed animal.”
Well, obviously.
o.O

6 Christine H 05.04.08 at 9:46 pm

“hos”? :P

anyway, they are teeny cute fluffy ponies and they are adorable.

7 Icanhazpony? 05.04.08 at 9:47 pm

I’m clearly not of sound mind. I read “Frolicking little hos” and was all, What!?! Meg would NEVER use a word like “ho”! Then it dawned on me. D’oh.

If I could snorgle one of those sweet babies, I would forever. There would be carrots involved too.

8 gndtn 05.04.08 at 9:47 pm

OMG. Did you check out the link? They have a white lop bunny named Mr. Pancakes.

Now THAT is redonk if I’ve ever seen it.

9 cheryl 05.04.08 at 9:56 pm

squeeee!!! OMG MINI PON1ES!!!!
man, is that the cutest thing! so fluffy! such cute tocks! (and hocks!) i wanna lappony!! NOW!!!!

10 Melisma 05.04.08 at 9:57 pm

Awww! I love tiny little ponies. In fact I collect My Little Ponies… *shifty eyes* No, I’m not a college student who plays with toys! I’m a collector! It’s way different! That was somebody else who did their hair and took pictures of them having a pool party!

On another subject, where can I find these famous guidelines for submitting to CO? I saw some amazing product cuteness today…

Nooo!! Don’t put a word like “hos” on a headline!! Did you mean “hoss?” Unlike Icanhazpony?, I still don’t get it. But still, cutecutecute little horsinesses!!!

13 crazy weinerdog lady 05.04.08 at 10:12 pm

hos, it’s horse without the hard consonants….

14 k. o'dee 05.04.08 at 10:49 pm

Kettle? Snout? Tee hee! And, aww, horsies!

(I’m with rubypearl, though. Can’t make “hos” into “horses” in my head. I also, um, misread “frolicking” on the first glance. I was wondering what the hey it was doing in my RSS!)

15 Whiskas 05.04.08 at 10:57 pm

Frolicking little hos?

16 momof2kitties 05.04.08 at 11:03 pm

Add me to the peeps who said “Huh? Hos?”

I think “hoss”, too.

And I NEED one. NOW. He can live in my room and sleep in my bed. Where’s the link to order one???

17 Dianne 05.04.08 at 11:38 pm

I want to sprinkle pink glitter and ribbons all over them and make them into “My Little Ponies”

18 Katherine 05.04.08 at 11:41 pm

OMG! Of course they are part stuffed animal! Can I sleep with one??

Not like *that* you pervs.

19 tank 05.04.08 at 11:47 pm

they are auditioning for the My Little Pony live action movie to be directed by Michael Bay

20 HorsieLover 05.05.08 at 12:07 am

21 jen 05.05.08 at 12:14 am

awwwww!! so cute! they look so happies!

22 Leilani 05.05.08 at 12:17 am

*SIGH* Of course, they’d have to be in the UK. Only the Brits, God bless ‘em, would have miniponies this cute!

23 Theresa 05.05.08 at 12:18 am

OMG!!! You know what. ;)

24 chanpon 05.05.08 at 12:20 am

@Leilani – Confirming that Seinfeld was right. We are a non-pony country. *sigh*

25 Ermine_Violin 05.05.08 at 12:30 am

Pocket Ponies!!!!!!!111!!!!OMG

(I do things backasswards a lot)

26 binky-mama 05.05.08 at 12:35 am

@Leilani and chanpon–I live in the US and have a pony! Not only that but the place I keep her at breeds mini-horses just like this. I look forward to every spring when the behbeh horselets are born. What cracks me up the most are the little fences in their pastures- they hit below my hip! Don’t even get me started on their leetle halters and blankets….redonk!

27 Kar 05.05.08 at 12:49 am

binky-mama, I don’t believe you.

I think we need some pictures of proof of these scaled down fences and little horselets.

28 metsakins 05.05.08 at 1:08 am

OMG PONIES!!!1!!!!1!!

The beeg head and the fluffy body…thud…that’s gonna leave a mark!

29 Barbara 05.05.08 at 1:25 am

Ooh! They have a video:

30 Tammy 05.05.08 at 2:03 am

Oh my! They are the cutest little ponies I have EVER seen! Big aww factor here.

31 berthaservant 05.05.08 at 2:18 am

The headline is accurate. Everyone knows Cinderella is a tramp.

32 Totalee Puppy 05.05.08 at 2:46 am

THANKS, BINKY-MAMA for sharing about the ponies.
It’s like you’ve opened the
gate to a place I never knew.
“PONY FEVER” has taken over my mind…if I am found frolicking in the
park, I hope someone will gently lead me home.

33 260Oakley 05.05.08 at 2:59 am

OMG, I want to bake the wee ponettes a batch of oatmeal cookies. Anybody know if ponies like raisins?

34 ashagato 05.05.08 at 3:02 am

i heard bambi will take just about anyone for a ride…

35 Lanie 05.05.08 at 3:19 am

I think it’s spell Hauws

I choose to believe that these are 100% stuffed animals. If i refuse to believe they are living breathing creatures, then perhaps I can deal with not smoochinzz on the schnozzins!!

36 binky-mama 05.05.08 at 3:47 am

Lanie- what’s your address? I’ll steal one of the spring behbehs and mail it to you…hee hee

37 Rachel Sweeden 05.05.08 at 4:09 am

I want one of those ponies they are so adorable.

38 Epona 05.05.08 at 4:15 am

At my barn my call them ‘Po’s’ or ‘po po’s’ (Short for ‘pony’). We have one named Smokie who is also ’smo-po’, and one called Roxy who is also ‘ro-po’!!!

39 Bloo 05.05.08 at 4:45 am

There is a miniature horse breeder not too far from where I grew up – I checked and they’re still around, if anyone’s serious :)

http://www.drkminiatures.com/fun_pics.htm

I love the pics of the one foal with the dog, playing soccer. Qte!

40 PumpkintheCat 05.05.08 at 5:14 am

One of them is sitting on a LAP, people! A wee pony…is snuggled…on a lap. Where do I trade in my lapcat for one of these?

41 Subhangi 05.05.08 at 6:54 am

Teeny tiny horsies with giant fuzzy haids, o my!

42 harlemgrrl 05.05.08 at 10:25 am

43 Kwistee 05.05.08 at 12:42 pm

44 Hon Glad 05.05.08 at 1:10 pm

45 Theresa 05.05.08 at 1:34 pm

Bloo, yes, LOVE the pics of the ponies playing with the doggie!

46 zeldapie 05.05.08 at 1:54 pm

I always wanted a coal black charger with a golden saddle for my birthday, but I’d do anything for one of these ponies. WANT!!!!!

47 Susan 05.05.08 at 2:22 pm

48 Ermine_Violin 05.05.08 at 2:33 pm

49 shane 05.05.08 at 2:42 pm

So sweet. But people, please check this out:

Warning: looking directly at the hands and feet may prove unbearable for some.

50 Beanie 05.05.08 at 3:01 pm

Part stuffed animal indeed.

Oh, yeah, for those interested, I’m making a podcast called The Bean Pod(cast). It’s a podcast for teens (Since I am one), but you all would probably enjoy it. I’ll post a comment on this blog when I’ve got the first episode up.

51 Pliny 05.05.08 at 3:21 pm

The headline materialized before the photo, and I was really wondering how frolicking trollops could be all that cute…

Then- zvarri!- “Hos”–>”hoss”–>”horse”
That makes much more sense.

52 Theo 05.05.08 at 3:25 pm

Pliny — yes, but what’s “zvarri”? Is it like “et voilà” or “eureka” or maybe “ta-daah”?

53 lisa 05.05.08 at 3:28 pm

“Meg would never use a word like “ho”" haha! That was the best laugh I’d had in ages ;) Meg has a bit of a potty mouth, haven’t you noticed?! I think she gets it from that naughty fella at dlisted. They’re always copying each other.

heehee.

Great to see the horses, they’re gorgeous.

54 Susie 05.05.08 at 3:33 pm

Knobbular Furry animals that are close to the ground break all the rules of cuteness. IT SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED. I cannot look directly at them for too long lest I whelp and have snorgle attacks. Toooo cute!!!!!

55 tracyFlick 05.05.08 at 4:40 pm

WHY? Why are they so small

56 AuntLisa 05.05.08 at 4:43 pm

I was promised a lappony but I can’t find the picture ! Can someone post the direct link so I can get my lappony fix ?

57 brinnann 05.05.08 at 4:49 pm

Mineigh Horse haz a Mineigh Me! What happens if the cycle continues? O_O TEENSY POCKET-SIZED HORSIES FOR EVERYONE!!!!!

tracyFlick, I believe the answer to your question would be “For us to squee & splode over.”

58 Sara 05.05.08 at 4:50 pm

I believe the correct term is “ho-ses”

59 Katrina 05.05.08 at 5:03 pm

Horse puppies! They are tiny horse puppies!

60 Meers 05.05.08 at 5:31 pm

Nice head to bod size ratio on those little hosses!

61 riolinda 05.05.08 at 5:47 pm

OMG.. I can’t believe these are real! I want one! :)

62 snorglepup 05.05.08 at 6:09 pm

Must have me a lap pony!!

63 Tisha_ 05.05.08 at 6:09 pm

http://kettlesnout.co.uk/news/?p=35

OMG, look! Ponies in Dog Coats!

64 posey 05.05.08 at 6:37 pm

I knew exactly what Meg meant by “hos”, it’s that cute speech impediment that little kids have where they can’t say their “r”s or “l”s. I’ve been using it for years- I’m with you, Meg!

65 Gail 05.05.08 at 7:14 pm

I LOVES the baby horsies!!!! Talk about your OMG Ponies!1!!!!

66 Holy Cuteness 05.05.08 at 7:18 pm

So cute! Love these little tiny animals….

67 Beth 05.05.08 at 7:25 pm

I know it’s already been said but OMG PONIES!!1

These little ones are SO NOM-ABLE!

68 llamas 05.05.08 at 8:06 pm

OMG Ponies!!!11!!

One of my friends lives adjacent to a mini hos farm; yes, you can look out her kitchen window and see said hos most days. I’m ridiculously jealous.

69 Marie 05.05.08 at 9:33 pm

Ditto Barbara.

Mother’s Day is coming (sing-song) and I know what I waaaant!

70 Heavenly 05.06.08 at 12:01 am

OMG Mr. Pancakes! Thanks for pointing that out gndtn; I totally would have missed it.

71 katybug 05.06.08 at 12:26 am

are these 1/2 stuffed aminals 1/2 ponies available in your local walmart stores?

I WANT A PONY.

72 Pheas 05.06.08 at 1:01 am

OMG — all they need are hats and they can star in the live-action Planet Unicorn!

Heyyyy

73 villy 05.06.08 at 4:49 am

That first video…the unnecessary and completely indiscriminate laugh track ruined it for me. What the hell is so amusing about zooming in a horse just standing that it needs a laugh track?

I used to have a miniature horse. She really did look like a my little pony. unfortunately she died on my 16th birthday… :-(

74 Clare 05.06.08 at 2:08 pm

I am currently attempting to persuade my housemate that we desperately need one of these, despite the fact that we live in a tiny upstairs apartment with hardwood floors and a very small balcony. I am failing somewhat, but I must have one of these!

75 peep 05.07.08 at 4:42 pm

STOP IT STOP IT STOP IT STOP IT NOW!

If I cannot have one or 12 of these, I will hold my breath.

………………………
red………..
holding breath………….

76 clair 08.12.08 at 8:56 pm
