Hello! I thought of a fun game for everyone on binkybunny to play! It is a competition where someone says a theme (Fluffiest face, longest tongue, longest stretch, etc.) and you post a picture that you think will win. The winner will be stated after more than 6 pics are posted, and the winner gets to pick the theme and judge for the next round! So let’s get started.
-
Lol, my rabbits don’t have fuzzy butts but I do wish I could upload pics from my device right now. But bunny butts are so cute. Reesebun, you should do a category like, “Fur that smells awesome”, because Thor would totally win that, haha. Joking about the catergory, but I’m kinda serious about his fur smelling awesome

Chester supper flopped out!

Yay
Thor graciously accepts and would like to thank his coach, sponsors and subordinates, for all their hard work. I wanted to see a big yawn, high binky or crazy moult but since it might not be the easiest to catch, I think I will choose…
“Most Interesting Remodel”.
That’s right, your bunny’s chewing “projects” become photo-worthy as of now (of course, I hope no one’s bunny actually ingested all the debris, because that would be dangerous) but like myself, all bunny parents of tenacious chewers – you know who you are and what your child has done!
-
momma’s sweet boy! he has 2 hay baskets on each side of his food bowl. well if mom and dad don’t zip tie them to the cage Mr.Bun LOVES to throw them not only into his litter box but out the door and into his house! the he sits in his new spot nice and pretty to show mom what he did and he especially loves to throw that basket around in the middle of the night! oh and see that bun sized hole in the baby gate? that was near the transition to his new home. luckily he wasn’t eating the plastic but several panels of the baby gates had to be reinforced with wire prior to getting rid of them!
-
These are hilarious. Mine is so not funny!
Apparently Odette has been watching too much HGTV because she’s trying to take out a wall.
Odette’s Baseboard and Sheetrock Remodel
Mom’s Chew Toy Remodel
I’ve since lined the baseboard with hay and she has lots of boxes, so Princess Destructo is better.

I wanted to see a big yawnYou want it, you have it:
I wish the camera could have focused faster…
-
Thanks L4B, Oscar seems very pleased!
We all know there’s one thing every bunny loves, and that’s FOOD! So hopefully it will be easy for lots of people to get a picture for the new theme:
“Food Mouth”
Veggie juice mustaches, mouthfuls of food, post your best picture of your bun chowing down!

jerseygirl: Thanks for the link and explanation! The contest is over now, but I’ll be ready for next time!
Benthebunny: Thank you too! Unfortunately I don’t have a smart phone so can’t use apps. We’ll have to get new phones by the end of the year though, they told us they’re getting rid if their dumb phone network.
Great memes everyone!
-
Eeeee! Too many cute entries!
I’m going to have to go with Mortimers entry as the winner because of that little singing mouth, but gosh you guys….it was not easy to pick the winner. It was a hairs breadth (a hares breath?
) between them all. Mortimer, congrats! Choose a new catergory. : )
-
LOL Whoever gets to his fuzzy pants first, prepare to be Oliver Twisted with daily “Please, Sir. Can I have more?” faces. Fringe and all.
Reese: That tiny tongue flick photo is still to die for.
L4B: You do realize the General is simply assessing the efficiency of your workflow, don’t you?

Q8, I would take that anyday over being pummelled like a bowling pin at the sound of [any] ruffling plastic bag. If Chewy is Oliver Twist, Thor is Bill Sykes, minus the murdering streak.
Yes, The General was overly concerned about study breaks. Something about it interfering with his ear rubs and treat aquisition time. Go figure. As punishment, he tried to eat my study implements. -
Ah I can’t get this to work. Which photo bucket link do I use? I’ll try them all..

@ Nicolle How did Zorro shred that paper so evenly?
I fixed it so your photo appears in your first post now. The jargon in the post looked like what happens when uploaded as attachment from mobile device. When you go in to edit your post on a computer, it corrects.
The others have given some useful tips.
If you’re using photobucket regulary and are on a mobile device, copy the html code and paste it in Quick Reply box on here. You will need to resize your photo on photobucket first though. I don’t think the app lets you do that
but if you open p/bucket in a browser, you can. Or resize before uploading to p/bucket. I know, it’s all very convoluted! Hopefully we will see Binky Bunny being more mobile friendly in the future.

So many cuties~ Wish I could say ‘all’ and leave it at that.However, have to give it to jerseygirl. If only for invisibility cloak fail.
Haha, thank you, thank you. *takes a bow*.
Sorry for the terrible photo quality! I uploaded it from my phone and it looked okay…Viewing it now on my laptop, not so much.
I had to cut that hole bigger in his blanket after I discovered him like this (after getting a photo
). I was afraid he’d get tangled up one day when I wasn’t home. Okay, I will think of new catergory after my second cuppa. brb
-
@Reesebun, it took me a bit to spot Reese in that photo! She is such a little thing.
Okay people! Show us your best snapshots of your rabbits using unconventional pillows or bed. ie, something odd that they decide is comfy to rest on.
Here is Ailis and Rumball using each other as pillows. Not too uncommon in the rabbit world, I suppose.
And this is an older BB photo from member Denise12. Her bunny would sleep in a silicon loaf pan when young. She eventually had to take it away when she started to chew on it.
-
Before anything else I just have to say that all the buns, and I mean ALL bunnies are amazingly gorges!
Q8 I really don’t know whats gone into him these days… oh wait I know, moult has just kicked in in our house. And its biggest one in the year for Redford. We are preparing for Zombie bunny, and he always gets a bit funny (personality too) during his moult.
And Jersy we really should give her a superhero name. Maybe Super Snowflake?
And now, I give you Bianca’s Super Snowflake lounges. Yes this is a usual thing. I ones even saw her sleep on her back with bum and hinge legs up on the wall and head was on the ground.
-
AxGizmo, you could have submitted that last one for periscoping rabbits. He looks like he’s rocking back on his heels. :p
Napping bunnies are soo cute!
I think Bianca is the winner for me. Even though she’s using an actual pillow, she’s so silly with her butt hiked up. Looks like she’s half on a lamp base, half on a pillow?
Niamian, you’re up to choose next category. : )
I’ll close this one with this photo I saw this week.
-
Everyone’s bunny butts are cracking me up!
Odette, your submission is so simple and yet so funny- you have my vote! Here is Marble’s fluffiest submission with her drumstick legs sticking out! 
*Edit* Whoops! I guess I can’t read post dates- see that the contest has progressed and changed since then
-
we won, oh my oh my… I think fame has already got into her had since she wouldn’t let me comb her this morning, at all. Ive been getting only bunny but or give me food modes. Ah the price of fame…
The next category will be: The Majestic Bun
Bunnies being regal, serious or dramatic. We will give few examples:
-
Prince Timbu accepts the honor as is his due
… and I bow graciously. That photo is about 4 years old and made it onto Disapproving Rabbits.
I think one of the commenters had said he looked like a Chinese emperor or something. Sort of fitting, as his homecoming day was Chinese New Year, Year of the Rabbit!They captioned his photo: Make yourself comfortable, the Death Ray is warming up.
The site Disapproving Rabbits is no longer running but another took up the task, Disapproving Buns.
I think Chewie could pass as a noble sort when wearing lace cravats was high fashion. I’m still laughing at his face. Dramatic indeed!
Reese and Chester look like they’re playing King/Queen of the castle. :p
“New” catergory. I’m bringing back best meme or caption. Ready…Set…Go!
-
Took me forever to think of anything for any of my pics, hubby came to the rescue with the punchline. I’m no good at writing jokes
It’s a play on the classic Fry meme: https://www.google.com.au/search?q=fry+not+sure+if&espv=2&rlz=1C1CHBD_en-GBAU703AU703&biw=1777&bih=855&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi_goeN28rPAhWCipQKHTVCAT4Q_AUIBigB&dpr=0.9
-
Aw Breintjes face!! Who could resist.
I seriously wanted to do a poll so you guys could vote for winner for this last catergory, because Im finding it hard! Going back over them again, they all make me smile. I cannot make a poll as part of a reply though. That’s only for when you create a new thread. Bummer!
So…Im going to go with Odette’s submission. I’m a sucker for “nailed it” memes.
-
These are not a submission for the comp but do fit the catergory! I cracked up when I saw them online last night.
(On a side note, I love that floor!)

Yey Cinders!
Thank you everyone, I would just like to thank my camera, for working that day, my parents for being so supportive and Cinders for the act of bravery that caused this picture
The new theme is: Best ‘Mid Run’ picky
Started off by Terri, the chocolate orange Rex
& one of Gareth & Terri

Posted By Love4Bunny on 10/13/2016 12:26 PM
How in the world do you get mid-air shots? I can never pull out my phone camera fast enough.I’ve learned that Patton has a special ‘active’ time of the day (or night) it is between 8pm and 11 or so when he has to go to bed. It pays to have the camera out and loaded during that time
You learn to pay special attention when he gets up or starts to scamper during that block of time. That’s when he does his binkies, his Bunny 500s and leaps from sofa to sofa.
I was literally standing around with the camera on last night when I got those pics.
-
Thank you once again Ax! I also loved Vienna’s pic. Priceless.
As for the new category, I think I found something common enough that several of you should have something. New category is…
Not QUITE hidden! Should be the head hidden and part (or most) of the body not quite in there.
As demonstrated by Patton!
-
Posted By Barrett on 10/18/2016 12:59 PM
I’m tempted to bend the rules because that picture of Truffles is so darn ADORABLE!!
I wanted the theme to be “I’m hiding! You cannot see me!”
And that’s more of a “Ah, this is nice and comfy”. Let’s see how the submissions pan out. Well, he/she is trying to hide under a kitty butt…
-
Posted By Odette on 10/18/2016 1:24 PM
Wow! We had SO many good submissions for this category! Thank you everyone! There were some close calls, but in the end, I gotta give this one to Odette!
Not just hind legs but FRONT too! And EVERYTHING else hidden. LOL I’m sure she thought she was out of sight! And just LOOK at those hind legs! She’s really showing off!
Congrats Odette! You’re up again! -
Wow! I did not expect this! Thank you, Barrett! Odette sends Patton a celebratory nose rub!
Next Category: Best Bunny Selfie!
Odette likes to eat my phone. So any time I start taking photos, she runs up and I get..ahem…this:
Now, I know that bunnies don’t have opposable thumbs. We would all be in trouble if they did. So, a selfie in this competition is any bunny face pic. Hoomin help needed to click the pic!
-
Yayyyy moar picturessss!
Here is Smudge, she’s awake in this picture. Just purring away.
At four weeks this kitten takes better selfies than I do
And of course, Cyndaquil, an adventurer reincarnated into a hedgehogs body. (Hegdgehos were brought onto this planet for close up face pictures)
-
Posted By BubblesJo on 10/23/2016 7:06 AM
Do double-selfies count? This is the two of us for volunteer t-shirt day
And one of the cute rascal
So many perfect selfies. I could choose each one for a different reason.
But, one bunny takes the win for his volunteer selfie. Selfies that spread awareness are awesome. This win also recognizes his stellar street style. I fully expect buns from Brooklyn to Canal St-Martin will sport this look after seeing Chester’s selfie.
Thank you everyone for participating!
Congrats to BubblesJo and Chester!

Reese – lol – they’re lovely but they’re just called “portraits”…. LOL Yes Mortimer looks as if he’s a dog born in rabbit fur !!
I call them selfies because it is just Reese all by herself in those pictures! But they are also just portraits too
-
Thank you to those who commented about my bun in the avatar (his name is Alvin, though
) He was quite the brat, and did behave more like a dog than a bun… heh.He did beg quite a bit as well! I have a lot of photos of him begging, but since I’m out of town and the cd of Alvin’s pictures are at home, these are the only two begging pictures I have of him on this computer.
He had a slight addiction to a certain drink….
I was holding a carrot….

Posted By Vienna Blue in France on 10/26/2016 5:20 PM
@Ax, how is Frank(ie!) ? Settling in ?
Officially Frank but I love to call hi Frankie haha
He is fine thank you, settled in well and is truly the head of the household (and he knows it!)
I’ve caught him pulling at the carpet once or twice so lots more wood and cardboard required!!
-
Thou may kiss His Majesty’s nose. Thou mayest indeed.
Alvin would also let you kiss his nose, if you bribed him with the bribe of tea (which is what is on his face in the photo)…
I’m not entering this one to be considered, but it is the end result of seeing a kissable nose in front of your face right as you wake up.
-
Yumi lives for nose kisses. Unfortunately my camera sucks, but the fur around her nose does this adorable crimping thing when there is a lot of moisture in the air.
This is actually here waiting “patiently” for nose rubs/attention of any form.
And finally, Sampras rarely has a clean nose, so not many pictures of him, but here they are booping snoots with each other
-
Vienna & Theodorusrex – Thanks! That’s actually the driest hay they’ve ever sent me cos normally it’s wayy greener. I order it from Sierra Valley Pet Hay in the U.S. (family owned farm).
Jerseygirl. That is gorgeous. I mean, ALL of the bunnies are gorgeous. But that little “T” nose crinkle – no fair
Your bun looks like a stuffed toy! -

Your bun looks like a stuffed toy!Haha, yeah he always has crazy lines on him somewhere. He’s an agouti so that happens a bit because the hair shaft is striped with different colours.
I didn’t actually notice the T ! Maybe it’s a T for Target: where to place the kiss.
-
Yay!
She’s giving me the “If I really won, where are all of the treats..” face right now.(it’s actually just her regular “Where are the treats” face)Okay, next category is… “Cutest Couple“
Couples can include anything(inanimate friends will be accepted) just as long as one half is a bunny!
Gimme dem cuddly buns!
-
Haha Vienna-Sorry for my predictability! Honestly seeing my pair being cute with each other (or my other pets) always makes me happy…so obviously I’ll wanna see other peoples babies doing it! Before Yumi, Sampras was close with my hamster Tetra. http://imgur.com/a/mjxeI
To this day her washing his ear remains my favourite thing-(last image,she has to be on him to do it)Granted I really wanted to see the best costume… But figured it wasnt halloween just yet
-
THIS WAS SO HARD TO JUDGE, but I figure I have to pick someone so that the competition can go on to the next topic. So congrats to Sleepy, next topic is up to you!!

Older pic but one of favs~ Husbun and Lady Bun chilling in the sheets together.
Bonus pic, movie night with the portable dvd player:
-
On Saturday we had a pumpkin carving party, and Silas mostly hid until all the people (and mini guest dog) disappeared. Then he became very interested in the bucket of pumpkin guts. My husband moved the bucket down on the step to clean the floor, and Silas became one very happy bunny. I wish I had gotten him pulling out a huge strip of pumpkin and running at breakneck speed to hide with his prize on video. The second picture is post-pumpkin bunny happiness.

Ax – are your xpen grids fixed at all against the walls? Or do your buns not really care about pulling them away? A corner is the perfect solution. I don’t have a corner…
And do they not jump over them (or are they not shut in ever? I can’t remember…)They’re not fixed to the walls, just cable tied to the cage bars, they are perfect fit for the alcove which is a god send, if it wasn’t for the alcove i’m not sure it’d work so well.
I have been using this set up for 3 years (with pen closed & 3 different buns in there) and never had a bun jump out. I have always made sure the buns didn’t have anything to jump on by the open side of the pen (that’s why the hide box is at the back) and they cant get on top of the cage from inside the pen.
Since I got Red in May I just left it open as he wasn’t a chewer but I left it up to protect the skirting boards really (just in case). Now Frank & Cinders are in here and he has chewing tendencies, they may get shut in yet, i’m currently undecided.
The living room has 2 alcoves, the buns have been in both at some point but the one they are in now is the best one as its away from the storage heater
The other alcove is just to the left of the picture. They both fit 2 indoor cages side by side, which is nice for bonding purposes
(This is an old pic from when I first moved in but the only one I can find that shows both alcoves ha ha)
-
Yes that’s a great alcove isn’t it for bunnies – I shall look at alcoves in a different manner from now on. I’ve just realised I have a sort of one…. but it wouldn’t work if I shut it off completely (I’d need 4-5 ft barriers). I need access to the window and it’s the other side of the room (I live in a long corridor!!) the buns wouldn’t have access to the patio without crossing the whole room…. hmmmmm. My mind is going bonkers with trying to find a happy solution for all.
My friend said to me yesterday : “be careful. The buns should be living with you, not the other way around….”
So true, so true… -
“be careful. The buns should be living with you, not the other way around..
When I was looking for somewhere to live for this year, it very quickly turned into a house search for a room my rabbits would like.
-Much to the chagrin of my family, who think I’m lampy for the most part(they arent wrong)And that’s the story of how I live in a miserable house with two obliviously happy rabbits.

Lol, sometimes I look at houses for sale online, just for fun. And it always turns into “Oooh, that would be a nice room for the rabbits” or “no, this one’s not suitable because there’s no place for the bunny cage and Dory’s cage” or “can’t have carpet in the living areas, bunnies will chew it” and so on
I found one with a great sun room type thing recently which would have been a perfect room for Dory, haha. Plenty of flight room and nice and bright -
I dont like posting this after that example of Jasper and a 6 year old…they are a seriously hard act to follow!
But Yumi is a snuggle bun, here we have her snuggled in for tv time.
And bonus picture that my mom caught of me absolutely out cold sleeping on the couch, with an ‘earless’ Yumi, being my ever present, watchful teddy bear.
-
Yay, I love bunny hugs! Chelsea and Dface, these pictures are so cute
Let’s see if these fit the category:
I was completely tuckered out on the couch in my most charming ugly christmas sweater and pyjama pants. Breintje curled up next to me and I fell asleep while petting him. Bas quickly snapped this pic:
And here’s one from last week: Breintje sharing a blanket with me on the couch. (Courtesy of SpudPhone)

And come on, HOW long will the Chrsitmas tree stay stading ?!! LOL – Henry would be up it in a jiffy trying to be the fairy on the top !! and “festive” doesn’t have to be Christmas surely… all religions (or not!) celebrates something don’t they….?
Ex: Bunny in Buddha positions, bunny in front of a decorated mosque, bunny wearing a festive sari / turban… -
I love the helicopter look too
I fell in love with the breeders airoplane ears bubba but two boys wouldn’t be best option for me …. if I had got him to I wanted to call him Pilot because of the ears
Oakley has an amazing crown and his ears were looped fully before he was 3weeks old
Do you a lion head too? ( looking at your signature photos ) -
Thanks, O.M.
Pilot is a great name for a helicoptered lop. Wow about the ears. I knew I recognised something diff. about him! Yes, that’s my lil girl – Mr Google calls her a chocolate lionhead, specifically. I adopted her, but she looks perfect by my minimal awareness of breed standards, so I don’t know why anyone would give her up (if that’s what happened). She’s got the tiniest little skirt of angora? fur at the base of her bum and that goes all the way around. She is so funny, she loves it when her “mane” gets groomed. She actually starts purring, hahha. -
L4B: Lady-Thor is chill and friendly with people and also extremely bossy! I swear, she thinks we exist to serve her
BunnyFriends: She is a sucker for pets, I can pet her into a bun-loaf and she’ll just stay that way hoping for more, giving me time to adjust ears and snap an embarrassing picture, lol!
-
Aw, if there were a best dressed category, Poppy would certainly be a contender!
With the baby pic rule, I *think* it is okay if your rabbit is no longer a baby. Ive shared photos of TimTim and Potamus from when they were babies. The forum leaders at the time never edited those posts so I assumed it was okay.
I guess it was known by the community that they were my rabbits Id had for a while.The rule is more discourage photos of current litters of kits.

Haha I can totally see Podge singing :chim-chim-cher-oo!” in that 2nd pic. Or whistling the tune.
Podge already has his own favourite version of the tune. It goes ‘Chin chimery, chin, chimery, chin, chin, cher oo, I have got so-oo much chinning to do!’
With actions to match, of course
