The Ears (Don’t) Have It

October 20, 2018 By: Summer Samba43 Comments

somali cat wearing quilted hoodie, without the hood

One of the other items my human got for me recently was this gray quilted hoodie. There’s only one problem with it….

It’s got bunny ears! Now, the bunny ears may look cute to you in this photo, but they turned out to be a real problem.

They tended to go out of control. And they are huge!

Plus it was really hard to keep my ears from sticking out from underneath the hood.

See what I mean? I look like a hot mess, as you humans like to say.

My human had to take a bunch of photos to get a couple of decent ones. And there was a lot of hoodie and ear adjusting. Let me just say, I’m glad I’m not a bunny in real life!

    Well Summer, I said it before but I think those ears can be made smaller. Your human is very talented.

    How about “clipping” those ears a big. Bet it would look cute with smaller ears. You still look cute

    Summer, I think if your human is good with a needle and thread, I’d cut them down to a reasonable size

    Well I can see the harness looks more comfortable from the side, but I get your ear problem. Smooshing down your ears must be difficult. One thing though, I cracked up when I saw the cotton tail

    Having ears like those IRL – I think I’d be stepping on them all the time and falling on my whiskers!

    You look cute as bunny but the ears are a little too big even for a Somali.

    Summer, 4 ears must be a way more difficult than 2! And I think you wore it (the hoodie) well! Even if the ears were NOT behaving!

    That’s too bad, cause it looked kind of cozy..and sweet. But, well, maybe some pipe cleaners might solve some of the issues.

    Those are ears gone wild! Tee hee hee. Maybe your momma could open up a little hole in each and slip in a chenille stem wire so they stand up better and can be positioned where you want them? You still make a cute bunny no matter what! Kisses.

    If you were a bunny in real life, you’d have had every moment since your birth learning to manage those ridiculous ears. Plus: no hoodie.Get your Human to take that OFF you!

    HAH! When I first saw the pic on the home page, I said “what is she? the Flying Nun?” HAH! Perhaps your human will be nice and cut the ears and tail off and it will be OK.

    Summer, you do look like the Flying Nun in a few of those. Those ears were out of control. And it’s not even close to Easter time. Something tells us that hoodie will show up on you in a calendar photo. XOCK, angel Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, angel Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy and Sawyer

    The believe the phrase “airplane ears” suits this look purrfectly, MOL. You look cute in any outfit sweetie. The bunny ears do look gigantus on you though, MOL. Maybe Boodie would like to model them. You know we actually have a pair of bunny ears, without the hoodie though. Mr. Chivers modeled them for us last Easter, still funny! Purrs
