    Lemur yoga loaf?

    They are done with the “I like to move it! move it!” portion of the program & are now forming a exclamation point to signify this.

    Well, I hate to mention it, but the first thing I thought when I saw this furry pile was how much it reminded me of the “Dan’l Boone Coonskin Cap” I wore as a six-year old cowgirl back in the 50s. I shouldn’t even mention that it featured a “real coon’s tail.” Forgive me, I was a clueless city girl then. Are these little fluffies taking a nap? Playing a game? Trying to camouflage themselves?? They are much fuzzier that the ladyfingers I use to line a bowl of trifle.

  4. Allie says:

    Wow it looked like a bunch of little lemurs laying on a giant one at first…

    hmmm, lemur guess…ahhh…. elebenty jillion?

  9. jakepets says:

    I think the extended tail at the front is like the string you pull to open an envelope … just one yank and all the lemurs come apart, easy-peasy!

    They are making a representation of the lost island paradise of Lemuria.

    That is all.

    Escapees from the local prison (aka Zoo).

    Or could it be the Olympic Finals of TWISTER.

    What in the world…?

    (Besides adorbs, of course!)

  16. Kar says:

    This is like some weird, existential fraternity pledge prank.

  17. murkle46 says:

    Leapin’ Lemurs are all leaped out.

  18. fleurdamour says:

    Lead lemur seems to be supplicating himself as if begging for the tender mercies of a vengeful god. It’s kind of deja vu.

    *whistles quietly while slowly making her way to the Pile O’Lemurs, scoops up said pile and RUNS LIKE CRAZY*

  21. martha says:

    Very cute photo – Mom or Dad is trying to get a grasp on their own tail by the side Surprise photo. And then – you get the whole family jumping on board for their free ride.

  22. beeny says:

    It’s like a lovely congealed mass of humbugs. Just as sweet with added snorgeling!

  23. Nancy says:

    Fudgie the whale, it was Fudgie…

    • Theresa says:

      Yes, it was Fudgie the Whale! Tom Carvel was one of the original terrible “I own the company” pitchmen. :D

  24. hilz says:

    I keep trying to count them, but the fuzz is overwhelming!

    The baddest buck buck horse ever. :)

    deeelicious pull-apart monkeh(lemur) bread

  27. Saffron says:

    Not a true Jello mold lemur dessert unless it is topped with mini marshmallows.

  28. ScoutsMom says:

    Looks like they need to take lessons from the hippos on how to properly make a conga line.

  29. Kar says:

    The Lemur Bobsled Team continually failed to qualify for the London Olympics. In addition to having too many members on each run, they forgot:

    1. No bobsled event in the Summer Olympics as there is no snow.
    2. They need a bobsled.

    When I was little the local zoo had ringtailed lemurs and they really do seem to cuddle like this all the time so when all five of my family would pile on the couch together we said we were pretending to be lemurs. Eventually they had to remodel the zoo and sent all the lemurs to San Diego. I still miss them.

  31. Marianne says:

    That is wonderful, adorable and dare I say it, more snuggly and snorgleable than a basket full of Kittens!! It looks like something you could purchase in FAO Schwartz!! I count 9 tails, but there might be more underneath the pile.

  32. T.U.M. says:

    Yipes!

  33. Katie says:

    Is there a prize for guessing the number of lemurs in that ball?

  34. Alissa says:

    Maybe they were cold? Either way, OMG LEMURS ARE SO CUTE! They are almost sloth-level cuteness ( my new cute ranking: 1)sloths 2) Slow Loris and now 3) lemurs! )

    “Team Tailio” relaxes after an Olympic training session.

  36. Sasha's Mum says:

    I think the Olympic theme is the right track here. Check out this far-less-cute-but-probably-more-Olympic-eligible team of lemur-wannabees:

    “Lemur Loaf” made me think of the song “The Lion Sleeps Tonight.”

    Verse 1
    On the concrete
    The colored concrete
    The lemurs sleep tonight.
    On the concrete
    The colored conrete
    The lemurs sleep tonight.

    *Hup,hup*

    Chorus
    Backup: A lemur loaf, a lemur loaf, a lemur loaf, a lemur loaf, a lemur loaf, a lemu loaf, a lemur loaf, a lemur loaf
    Lead: Weee-eee-eee-eee-eee-eee, wee up um buh way

  38. sugitomo says:

    Ratio of pickles to lemur in the loaf is slightly off.

  39. Ace says:

    Oh my gosh. I am going to be singing “a lemur loaf, a lemur loaf, a lemur loaf, a lemur loaf” to the tune of “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” FOREVER AND EVER.

    *begins singing*
