Meanwhile, at Cottontail’s Hideout…

"Awright, youse mugs, listen up! We’re knocking over McGregor’s First National Bank, see, and I don’t want no slip-ups! 

Bugsy, you drive the getaway car. Roger, you blow up the safe.

And Flopsy, you stare disapprovingly at the security guard!  Now, hop to it, see?  Nyeeaaahh!"

Daaaawww, tell me again about the humans, George!

This looks like a case for Elliot Nuff and his Untouchables, Amanda L.

  9. Theo says:

    Raemie — pea bullets? These are rabbits. Think about it.

  10. ThreeCatNight says:

    This brings to mind the old Bugs Bunny and Edward G. Robinson (Rocky) cartoon:

    Bugs: “It’s coitans for you, Rocky. COITANS!”
    (whips out a pair of cafe curtains, and puts them over Rocky’s head)
    Rocky: “Oh, they’re adorable!”

  11. sharon says:

    I just finished reading Of Mice and Men, didn’t think much of it, but these bunnies and the hovertext—made me snort right at work. priceless.

  12. rorschach says:

    Don’t you mean Unfluffables?

  13. Theo says:

    Hey Rorschach, I only ever got to see that one on TV; I hear it’s supposed to be way better in lagomorphic widescreen.

  14. 260Oakley says:

    Another hare-raising tale. Obviously, they are planning to steal diamonds because they are in need of extra carrots.

  15. sk says:

    Hand over the carrots or you’ll be sleeping with the fishes, SEE?

  16. Raemie L. says:

    LOL
    Ok, *coughs* I see they have already the ability to produce their own bullets.

  17. Theo says:

    Yeah, they won that right years ago in appellate court.

  18. (the original) Mel says:

    Once you’re in the rabbit racket, you’re always in it.

  21. Faye says:

    Best hover text comment ever!
    Of Rabbits and Men by Cute Overload.

  22. Kit says:

    Wow, Flopsy there has deflated from the amount of disapproval. Someone give that bunny 3 cc’s of carrot helium! Stat!

  23. (the original) Mel says:

    Teho: HEE!

  24. charliewabba says:

    Bunnsy Malone?

  25. berthaservant says:

    Teho — lagomorphic widescreen. Wow. It’s hard to make Tom’s posts better, but you just did.

    As someone who has seen two dozen Edward G. Robinson films in the last two years, I haughtily disapprove of this post, see?

  26. Not That Mike The Other Mike says:

    I suspect that this gang is loosely affiliated with Monty Python’s bank-robbing sheep:

  27. jmuhj says:

    BUNNsy Siegel and his sidekick, Carrots McGrew. A dangerous duo, to be sure.

  28. Lurker says:

    It’s Laurel and Hardy Bunnehs!

  29. Wombats says:

    Ok Bunneh! Don’t shoot! I’ll hand over all my valuable carrots….in exchange for a snorgle!

  30. Marie says:

    You know even with the cute hats a life of crime is just not worth it Mr. Buns.
    Pray consider mime or tap?

  31. Decca says:

    I happen to know from experience that it’s darned-near impossible to hold, let alone fire, a Tommy gun without opposable thumbs.

  32. Theresa says:

    @ThreeCatNight-AWESOME Looney Toons ref! Do you remember the one with Bogart in a Hollywood nightclub, demanding “rabbit stew” for “Baby”?

  33. Boomer's Babysitter says:

    yay NTMTOM for the Monty Python link!

  34. Paul says:

    The grey bun is like a Moai Statue of Disapproval!

  35. thepetmuseum says:

    *Splort* tiny bunny gangster hats + coffee = wet screen.

  36. chanpon says:

    Buns, meet Bob Fossie. Now our first lesson today will be something called “jazz hands”…

  37. chanpon says:

    Oops, Fosse.

  38. Miss Ruth says:

    Decca! What happened to your thumbs?!?

  39. Carrie says:

    Aww. Buns in Hats! It should be a category!

  40. AuntieMame says:

    Teho, surely you mean a-pellet court?

  41. Cool Gecko says:

    I WANT THE GRAY ONE!!!! He can have all my carrots… in exchange for his custody. He looks like he is being smooshed by his hat.

  42. johnneh says:

    BUNLOAF

  43. Metz says:

    They’re gonna pull down a lot of cabbage on this caper huh?

  44. Cool Gecko says:

    I bet the gray one is Flopsy.

  45. MaggieBee says:

    Ooooh, the gray one!

  46. snoopysnake says:

    “I’m glad you could all come to my little partih, and Flopsy’s glad too. Aren’t you, Flopsy?”

  47. Not That Mike The Other Mike says:

    “There — poor Flopsy’s dead, and never called me Mother.” :-D

    The lil’ gray one looks pretty fierce. :D

  49. Melissa says:

    i have a bun that looks like the one on the right, she is an american Fuzzy. Her name is Machine Bun Kelly, and her mate’s name is Jimmy Hoppa.

  50. Decca says:

    Miss Ruth, it was a disagreement between me and Luigi “The Big Bun” Vendetta. He taught me a lesson about talking to the Feds and I couldn’t hold my Tommy gun for a month. Never cross Big Bun…

  51. Raemie L. says:

    “Teho, surely you mean a-pellet court? -AuntieMame”

    *groans again* I misread it the first time to read as “ap-pellet-e” court. :P

    “warm and snuggly and ever so safe from the big bad rabbit, who can scratch and scratch for all he’s worth, but he just can’t get into Porky’s house.”

  57. Dave says:

    You made me feed my bunny carrots a lot now. He’s like “What did I do to deserve all this treatitude!?”
    Just being you – bud, just being you…

  58. woofysma says:

    Do they each have a gat? A moll?
    Melissa – “Machine Bun Kelly and Jimmy Hoppa.” Love it – brilliant!

  59. Tamika says:

    I swear I stared at this pic for a long time not seeing the bunnies eyes. Still cute, though. ^_^

  60. eikoleigh says:

    omg, they’re so fuzzy, they didn’t even register to me as bunnies at first. So cute! Love the little hats

  61. JenBrett says:

  62. R. Moore says:

    Bugsy can drive the get-away car, sure, but I’m no good with explosives.

    (Pssst, I SWEAR Meg and/or Theo is spying on the Castle guys!)

  63. Martha in Washington says:

    I think the sheep in Scotland are car-jackers. They lay in the middle of the road waiting for unsuspecting tourists to stop and then they steal your rental. They’re diabolical!

  64. jill-e-b says:

    Am I the only one who saw this picture and thought of Gnarls Barkley?
    A very, very fluffy Gnarls Barkley of course.

  65. caelus says:
