You’ve Got a Bit of Teeth Stuck in Your Food, There

"Ah, that’s better.  Does anyone have a moist towelette?"

That was the tastiest salad I ever disapproved of.

Raise your hand if the bun’s feet in the second picture remind you of…ZE FRENCH TAUNTER!

Glad to know it’s not just my piggle pies that get lettuce ’stach. Sometimes it’s so bad they stain my shirt green if I pick them up too soon after snack time!

Gotromaine?

6 Michelle S. 03.05.09 at 7:32 pm

teehee I love how he’s nibbled the edge of his bedbox. I used to do that as a kid.

7 Kari 03.05.09 at 7:34 pm

Love the hovertext, NTMTOM. Not only is this bun disapproving of the salad, he’s also highly disapproving of the green mouth! Cute, though.

8 Kari 03.05.09 at 7:35 pm

Oh, and here’s a towelette for the little cutie.

9 Von Zeppelin 03.05.09 at 7:37 pm

I occasionally have the same embarrassing problem with my mustache. However, I hardly ever get food on the tips of my ears like this rabbit.

“Hrrmph, needs more dressing.”

Ummm…not tryin’ to sound like a nuffer here, but is it me, or is that salad thar a wee bit too…ripe to serve a bun? Sure he ate it but when I had iguanas I never fed them slimy gross greens…

I promise I’m just asking and NOT nuffin’!!! :D

13 Theresa 03.05.09 at 7:57 pm

@Jun-Jup, I just got a mental picture of a tableful of disapproving iguanas sending their salads back to the kitchen. ;)

14 alex 03.05.09 at 8:03 pm

that bunny is ready to burp.

15 Beth 03.05.09 at 8:11 pm

mel2 that’s so funny.

16 Sprock 03.05.09 at 8:15 pm

How come when I have food hanging out of my mouth it’s gross, but when it’s hanging out of a bunny’s mouth it’s cute? I wholeheartedly disapprove!

17 FranieFrouFrou 03.05.09 at 8:19 pm

This looks a lot like Plopp the bunny (one of my fave bunnies on Flickr) but there’s no link to the original photographers website so can’t be sure (on a side issue doesn’t this break Creative Commons/Flickr rules?)

Anyone able to confirm if this is indeed the lovely Plopp?

18 catloveschanel 03.05.09 at 8:24 pm

Ew. I was just eating my spring green mix for lunch and…… guess I will finish it later.

19 Katrina 03.05.09 at 8:24 pm

Mel2- “Now go a-way or I weel dis-apprrrrove of you a se-condd timm-eh”

Thanks for the yuck!

Green ’stash’ was all my joy, green ’stash’ was my delight, who but my lady green ’stash?

20 catloveschanel 03.05.09 at 8:31 pm

I disapprove of this ad.

21 Pansy 03.05.09 at 8:57 pm

no way is that Plopp. his markings are all wrong. What is he eating with his salad that’s all wet? looks like he had baby food dressing in the first pic. my bun is similarly colored and never gets lettuce stache.

22 FranieFrouFrou 03.05.09 at 9:03 pm

Yeah, I’ve been back and had a look, the nose is far to dark to be Plopp, just looked like his cheeky way of holding food in his mouth, all nonchalant :) Still would be good to know who took the photos, love Cute Overload don’t like the lack of credit to the original photographer :(

23 gryt 03.05.09 at 9:08 pm

His mouf is all zigzaggy in the 2nd shot. :D

24 berthaservant 03.05.09 at 9:10 pm

This is definitely a NOM-Tom post.

25 JB 03.05.09 at 9:16 pm

Mel2 — Your eye for minutiae is impressive! Very funny.

26 Allison G 03.05.09 at 10:22 pm

It’s a very cute photo. ! If buns eat veggies that are even slightly past their prime they can very easily die from it. I wish I were exagerating—–it’s a thing about their tummies. No barfing abilities, just quick and unexpected expiration. :(

Vets say rabbits can only eat the same fresh lettuce that a human would. True, plenty of other animals are hardier so I think scraps are OK with those! Thanks!

27 Julia 03.05.09 at 10:27 pm

Sooooo cute. Just too adorable.

28 Kari 03.05.09 at 10:33 pm

I just realized that the caption of this pic says, “You’ve got a bit of TEETH stuck in your FOOD”! NTMTOM, you’re such a cut-up! ;-p

29 Patito Gigante 03.05.09 at 10:57 pm

“I must warn you, she haz a very messy act–you will get quite wet on zis ride.”

31 Marie 03.05.09 at 11:33 pm

Just when you think you’ve seen all the cute there is to see with bunnies, another adorable one shows up! I can’t take it! Must squeeze hard.

32 momof2kittiesandapuppeh 03.05.09 at 11:44 pm

LOL @ NomTom and Mel2.

33 Lerrinus 03.05.09 at 11:48 pm

There’s a brown-nosing joke in here somewhere…!

34 auntyb 03.06.09 at 12:41 am

In all my years in vet medicine, I absolutely have to state that BUNS HAVE THE CUTEST LEEPS EVAR!!! They also have cute little tongues to clean the leeps and whiskees with! I could watch a bun eat all day and bask in te qte.

35 Von Zeppelin 03.06.09 at 12:43 am

@Theresa–Dear lady, after reviewing your Grand Gallery of Mustaches, I would have to say that my personal ’stache is most similar to your third selection. In fact, I look EXACTLY like Tom Selleck in his prime, if you don’t count the part above the nostrils or below the upper lip.

36 AuntieMame 03.06.09 at 1:09 am

Well, Von Z, that is what the girls were all ga-ga about. Among other things…

37 Nik 03.06.09 at 1:18 am

It’s not easy being green…

38 Tractatus Blorpico-Philosophicus 03.06.09 at 1:42 am

Hey US peeps, in the UK they say “tache” instead of “stache” as universal abbreviation for moustache. I still can’t get used to it.

39 Theresa 03.06.09 at 2:10 am

@Tractatus, they would always giggle or snicker or raise eyebrows when I said “Don’t get all bent out of shape,” meaning don’t get upset. They thought it was “rude.” They thought a lot of things were “rude.” ;)

40 totalee puppy 03.06.09 at 2:33 am

Hey you, Fiber Face…Can’t believe how
cute you are.

41 Theo 03.06.09 at 3:00 am

*snrrrk* “Fiber Face” baaahahahahahaa

42 Patito Gigante 03.06.09 at 3:31 am

Tractatus– I’m totally out of touch with my fellow Americans, but… I say ‘tache (as in “Bitchin’ ‘tache, Carl. Lookin’ goooood.” I don’t care who knows it. I won’t stop.

Bitchin’ ‘tache, rabbit. Lookin’ goooood.

43 Frankie 03.06.09 at 4:10 am

Keep brown-nosin’,little fella–You might work your way up to fresh, crispy
Romaine.

44 Hon Glad 03.06.09 at 6:38 am

I think he looks like Darth Vader in the second picture, or is that daft Ada?

45 eris 03.06.09 at 6:47 am

“Why so serious?”

46 nismo 03.06.09 at 7:22 am

Whoa. Check out that disapproval in the second pic.

47 kzgz 03.06.09 at 12:45 pm

I think a little pretreatment will get those grass stains RIGHT OUT, sir. Please stop disapproving.

48 zeldapie 03.06.09 at 3:36 pm

My word, what a slobby bun bun! I think perhaps *I* may disapprove of such table manners!

49 Sue 03.06.09 at 3:39 pm

What an adorable face.

50 dee 03.06.09 at 4:30 pm

I have to agree with other posters….that lettuce looks unpalatable….bunnies demand crisp, fresh lettuce!

51 Daddy of Snuggles 03.06.09 at 5:31 pm

Her name is Snuggles.
No!!! The lettuce is not rotten as some people have implied. She only gets fresh and crisp lettuce. The lettuce is very juicy. After she eats, there’s usually a puddle and her floppy ears end up soaking in it. I have to wipe her chin and ears after she finishes eating.

52 Kayls 03.06.09 at 6:44 pm

The lettuce doesn’t look bad (from what is sticking out) and some bunny’s just make messes when they eat fruits and veggies (it has to do with how their teeth are, just like humans). plus bunnies will usually refuse foods that are bad. I am happy to see that Snuggles is getting dark green lettuce and not iceburg, which is VERY bad for bunnies and seen in some other postings.

53 Mommy of Snuggles 03.06.09 at 6:55 pm

My little snuggle bunny is not disapproving. She is just asking if there’s anymore treats for her. I know because I’m her mommy and mommy knows best! By the way, we don’t feed her anything rotten that we wouldn’t eat ourselves.

54 Paunchie 03.06.09 at 7:39 pm

wipe yer mouf!

55 Gail (the first one) 03.07.09 at 2:22 am

@Parents of Snuggles: Congrats on having such a cute little (green) bun-bun!!

56 Babydon 03.14.09 at 8:48 am

its really a bunny

57 clydesdalegirl77 04.03.09 at 9:17 am

When my bunny eats carrots, he looks like that, only in orange, and his tonke goes out and he liks his little fuzzeh bunneh leeps, then he gives me this head-tilt look that is all “Just one more mommeh, PLEEEZE!!!!!!!!!!! I am just a little bunneh, and, and, and, just look at my little nose! See it tweetch!” and then I give in to his royal cuteness and give him another one, and the cycle just keeps going till my bunneh just cant eat no more!!!!!!!!! (not really, I only give him another one when I am in a good mood) :)
By the way, his royal cuteness’s name is Houdini :)
