Cute Overload! :)

Feb 07, 2007

Uh oh.

Um. We're not quite sure what to think. We have the OPPOSITE of "small ear to head ratio" going on here, and yet it's still cute.

DOES NOT COMPUTE!

DOES NOT COMPUTE, Jen M.!

FENNEC FENNEC FENNEC FOX!!!: Theo; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:29 AM

What IS it?: Christabel; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:30 AM

Why, Christabel, it's a Fennec, Fennec, Fennec Fox.: Theo; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:30 AM

THERE we go. Weird. Couldn't post at first. Anyway, maybe the rule shouldn't be small ear to head ratio, but rather if one of your features is wackily out of proportion with the rest of you, it's cute. :): kelly; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:30 AM

FENNEC FOX!!! Worship the mighty ears of the Fennec!!! I love these little critters so much. they have been on my Cutelist for years n years. They are sweet little desert dwellers. so Adoooooooorable.: bucky spalding; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:31 AM

The best, and the worst, guard dog in the world.: Guest; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:31 AM

One strong gust of wind and off he goes!!!! Its like the pet of the flying nun. Can't we just add a new rule? Head to ear ratio?: PuppyMomma; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:32 AM

Maybe the rule should be altered to "body part size out of proportion is cute". Of course, this is NOT applicable to porn stars.: tove; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:33 AM

See? See? I knew the small ear thing was valid, but I never felt comfortable about the seeming exclusion of our enormo-eared friends. Now, they are here to REPRESENT the qte!: greenighs; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:37 AM

tove, so good of you to clarify...: martha in mobile; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:37 AM

I am ded. Grateful.: pyrit; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:37 AM

Meg - You got me on this one. And you're not going to get rid of me. FENNEC FOX!!!: pyrit; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:40 AM

Someone has to say it and it may as well be me: CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW? [scoots for cover]: jaypo; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:45 AM

OMG! i could go for a dozen of those! do you think they get stuck in things due ot the large ears, like stuck in puppy doors or something? still i could cuddle 12 of them no prob: vivian calloway; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:45 AM

*squeal* so cute. I LURRF aminals with giant ears. Kittehs are the cutest when they have what i will title "large ear to head ratio": Tarah; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:45 AM

looks like you need a new rule: Katrina Bristow; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:51 AM

I agree that big ears are cuter than small ears any day!: Emily; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:57 AM

And here I was all frustrated like. and now all better. Frustration? I have no job frustration.: Miette; | Feb 07, 2007 at 08:57 AM

MEG! Geez! Turn the siren off before the poor thing goes deaf!!: TheLoveOfIsis; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:00 AM

jaypo - LOL! Fennec fox - part kitteh, part bunneh, and totally redonk: jess e.; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:01 AM

TheLoveOfIsis - That was funny!: Mitsu; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:04 AM

greenighs - I totally agree. I always thought our floppy eared friends were getting the shaft with the rule of "small ear to head ratio.": Vendla; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:04 AM

NORMAN, COORDINATE! *plode* *smoke exits cranium*: cosmiquemuffin; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:10 AM

I bet that critter can hear a mouse burp five miles away!: Robbie; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:10 AM

kelly and tove -- interesting rule idea, but the proboscis monkey suggests it is not universally applicable. http://www.worth1000.com/entries/164500/164646YFhe_w.jpg: Pheas; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:13 AM

cuteness! I want one!! :): rio_kitty; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:14 AM

bucky spalding: You mean ANERABLE, don't you?: Shadyman; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:15 AM

What a Beautiful little fox pup! Fennic foxes never stop the cutness unlike some animals, even as adults. This one looks well loved with his little toy in the backround and soft blue blankie.: Mike; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:16 AM

I've always thought big ears on small heads were cuter (look at chinchillas, for example), and wondered if I was the only one. Glad to know I'm not. :): pinball22; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:16 AM

WHAT. THE. HECK. *IS* THAT THING!?!?!??!?!?!? It's yumm-licious, to be sure. But what is it?!?!?!?: red_kira; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:16 AM

um..cuteness I meant: Mike; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:17 AM

he loves me , he loves me...sniff.sniff i knew it!: Fable; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:18 AM

Omidawg. I knew fennecs have huge ears, but before the pic loaded I could see only the ears - and I expected the head to be atleast twice as big as this!!!! Ears on fennec cubs are redonkulously big!: Subhangi; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:18 AM

he reminds me of the fox from The Little Price. [sigh]there will never be another fox just like this one. [sniffle]: anner; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:26 AM

That's a fox? Looks like kanga legs. I have never seen anything like it. How adorable. Can you keep them as pets I wonder.: sidney; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:26 AM

Ha ha! My apostacy has taken roots. I claimed all along that large ear to head ratio was just as cute as small ear to head ratio, and now you have proven my gospel. Otter Fennec Fox Otter Fennec Fox Otter Fennec Fox The truth shall set you free, my peeps.: Redzilla; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:28 AM

I POSTED THIS! I am famous. Anyway, these are pictures from my mom's friend who works at the Bronx Zoo. They are indeed foxlets, being hand-reared at the moment. Can you imagine a better job?: Jen M; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:33 AM

Cosmiquemuffin-- Fabulous ref...bless you!: Dara; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:34 AM

Gratuitously gorge... completely cute... absolutely adorable... bewitchingly beautiful... OMG my brain has shortcircuited and gone into alliteration mode..... *plink* ... who put the lights out?...: Hazel; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:35 AM

Maybe a variation of Rule #10: If you haven't grown into your ears yet, it's cute. And if you're an animal that won't ever grow into your ears, all the better! All the better to hear you with, my dear!: AuntieMame; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:36 AM

The ears are cute, sure, but look at that darling little clawed paw. :poit:: rpennefe; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:39 AM

new rule proposal: "applying a rule inverse is also cute": magnus; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:40 AM

I want to grab dem ears with both hands and give the leetle head a kiss.: lurkingsmirk; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:40 AM

There is no chick in its' ear!: pyrit; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:42 AM

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one crazy about fennec foxes! ADORABLE baby!!!: Cranky; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:55 AM

I wanna hand-rear them! What a gorgeous bebeh!: chet's momma; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:56 AM

Simple: The rule should be a *redonkulous* ear to head ratio. (Sorry, I don't know how to spell redonkulous.): Andrea; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:57 AM

Oh sure, it looks cute now, but wait 'till someone goes and feeds it after midnight.....: Loris; | Feb 07, 2007 at 09:58 AM

He's sooooooooooo cute! *ear kerchomp* I wants to give him cuddles.: Gryph; | Feb 07, 2007 at 10:01 AM
