Bun Alert System

478 readers
15 users here now

A place to alert others/be alerted of bun sightings.

The smoler the bun the better, please see this for an explanation: https://xkcd.com/1682/

RULES:

  1. Be kind to each other. Buns are cute, cuddly, and nice. Be like buns.

  2. Posts should be images of buns doing bun things. Bun things include eating, chilling, playing, hopping, and sleeping. You wouldn't want to be alerted of a capybara doing calculus through the Bun Alert System, would you? For other bun discussion, see some other communities below.

  3. Images should be of living, healthy, happy buns. The Bun Alert System exists to bring smiles to bun enjoyers around the world, not sour frowns.

  4. Keep it suitable for all bun enjoyers. Nothing too freaky or NSFW.

  5. With respect to this community, moderators are the smolest buns. Please shoot us a message if you have questions or concerns!

Cutie! Is this your bunny? If not, they look like a domesticated bunny who has likely been abandoned and left to fend for themselves.

Do they seem like they're pretty used to humans?

Not my bunny. I took the picture in Washington state’s Olympic Peninsula near a camping ground. There were actually two bunnies that looked nearly identical! I didn’t try to get close but they seemed wary of me

Hmmm...if they and you are still in the same area, you can try sitting down nearby and eating a banana close enough to them that they can smell it. There's a good chance they'll come to you. If you don't want to keep them as pets, I'm also in WA state and happy to help find a shelter in your area you can take them to

I was just passing through the state and had already left by the time I posted the pic :/ didn’t consider they could have been abandoned at the time.. there were humans around camping though so maybe they just strolled off for some snack time

Ah, I see. Hopefully they belonged to someone at the camp and are nice and safe :)
