The Reluctant Bunnycat

April 18, 2019 By: Summer Samba44 Comments

Somali cat dressed as a bunnycat for Easter photo shoot

My human found this flannel sheet that had Easter colors sitting in a closet, so she decided to do something with it. So here I am in a bunnycat outfit, with an Easter basket.

Somali cat feeling dubious about bunnycat costume

I’m not so sure about this bunnycat costume, though. My human got it for me a few months ago, and it’s never seemed quite right.

The ears never seem to stay on right!

This is an older bunny costume, but at least it behaves better.

somali cat rethinking the whole bunnycat thing

But really, I think I would rather ditch it altogether. I mean, who wants to be a bunnycat anyway?

Ah! That feels much better! What do you think? Should I wear one of the bunnycat outfits, or go au naturel?

    Hmmm Summer, the first outfit should be donated, far far away, the second costume is actually quite cute. The ears work. You love wearing outfits and this woeks for Easter. If course, au naturale is your best look

    I like the second one much better. The first one needs wire or something to hold up the ears. Au natural is the best but the ears are cute

    I would think the Easter Bunny would fancy you in or out of that bunny hat. But nothing is pretty than your ears “au naturel.” If our humans want us to wear bunny hats then I think they should have to wear them, too. But I never saw my mom put a bunny hat on her head as she did on mine. Humans seem to have some sort of play book that doesn’t include our input! Luvs.

    The first bunny outfit you could fly, 2nd is much better but best with own big Somali ears. Eggs without treats are deviled.

    Oh my Summer, I was laughing out loud for real. The first outfit is…well…your face says it all. I think the second one is very cute (better ears) but you in your natural state is by far the best. I think the second one is okay for one day

    What good are those eggs without treats? Where did your human find eggs with paw patterns or are we seeing things? I should send you the bunny ears TW bought ME today. Heh heh. She thought I was you, I guess. You’ll see them on the blog tomorrow.

    Our favorite bunny ears were the second ones. They are really cute on you. The first looks a little like a windmill, MOL. You always make everything look cute Summer! Purrs

    I think your human needs to put some wires in the ears of that new bunny costume! We think bunnycats are kind of cute, but we agree delivering Easter eggs would be a lot easier without floppy ears 🙁

    OK, we have to admit it. When she saw the title of your post, #1 said “Oh she didn’t, did she?” and then she opened the page and she BURST OUT LAUGHING! She also said that you looked really cute, Summer. But where, oh where is Binga?????

    Definitely – you should wear a bunnycat outfit.
    I really like the longer ears of the first costume.
    You look good both ways.
