Zsa Zsa Zsabun
When I adopted my peeps two years ago, I was a slenderbun. I sashayed down the catwalk (bunwalk?) with the best of them. I did multiple Bunny 500's around the living room every night. Then I discovered pellets. And fruit treats. And bits of cereal stuck to my peep's empty breakfast bowls, that I would lick off when they weren't looking. Soon I weighed well over the 2.5 lb limit recommended by my vet for a minibun like me. My medical chart from last year's checkup reads "slightly overweight -- but alert and feisty." The second vet who saw me shook her finger at my mommy-peep and said, "Morbidly obese." Yes, they tried to put me on a diet, but I fought for every pellet. I still do. Damn. Those things are tasty.
These pics are from my early Supermodel period. As you can see, I was a gorgeous rabbit then. But I firmly believe that there is no one standard for bunny beauty. I am very happy to be a plus-size plumperbunny. I think a little extra pudge suits me. And my peeps love me no matter what.
This photo of my good friend Zsa Zsa was taken by Wallace Seawell.

I only give them to her in the morning now, and only about three pinches worth, but at this point almost any time I approach the vicinity of her food bowl, it's enough to trigger a feeding frenzy. And sometimes she just parks herself in front of her cage and stares me down, then looks pointedly at the pellet bowl, then back at me, then goes to the pellet bowl...
She makes me feel so guilty.
and then I read about the pics being from Indybunny's "early Supermodel period". indeed. actually if you stare at pic 2 long enough you can see Indy batting her eyelashes.
