Will you please check out this anerable McBattersons in his nursery. Awesome. He's all; nom, nom, nom.

Kathy found this one in the latest edition of Bat World News, natch.

Awwwww...how precious.....till he flies screeching into my hair trying to scratch my eyeballs out: freetomato; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:06 AM

Whoever thought a bat could be cute? But he IS!: LisaN; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:07 AM

I've been waiting for CO to have a bat picture up! I love bats. Ever since I was a little kid and found a baby that'd fallen out of the eaves of our house... (we gave it some water and then found its parents hiding in a nearby bush. They climbed out and took their baby back out of my mother's hand) They are the coolest animals. If I could have any animal as a pet - any at all - it'd be one of the flying foxes. They're amazing. Right. Done gushing now. *melts*: Kiddo; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:12 AM

awww, that is the cutest bat I have ever seen! I don't normally say that about bats.: Shannon Johnson; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:13 AM

He's quite amazineg. I wonder what his story is..why is he in a blankie instead of .. wherever baby bats normally live? I don't know if I'm quite ready to read BatWorld news to find out.: Mary (the first); | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:20 AM

Awww, he's precious!: Renae; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:20 AM

...now I can't look at this pic without hearing the Maggie Simpson sucking sounds...: Manda; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:21 AM

I was gonna say exactly what freetomato said! :) Ah well...he sure is a little cutie (for now)!: jules; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:22 AM

Do you suppose the light hurts his eyes? They should get him some bat-shades!: tamerlane; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:35 AM

after living near a swamp for many years, i learned to love bats. they keep te mosquito population in check. besides, this wee one is adorable!: magda; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:36 AM

Awww! The wee bat! Bats are the best! Looks like the poor thing misses its mommy, maybe it fell out of the nest or mommy met an unfortunate demise, but with such a warm blankie and obviously food at the ready its human mommy is taking good care of it! So cute!: Dawna; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:38 AM

Moroccan tagine bat? i fink its cute: Khadija; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:42 AM

BATS! BATS ON MY BIRFDAY, TOO! YAY!: bats :[; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:44 AM

Kiddo, there have been a couple CO bats before this, but I think this one pwns the rest.: Deckard Canine; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:44 AM

Kiddo, there was a bat at least once before on CO: http://mfrost.typepad.com/cute_overload/2007/05/climb_my_little.html (I hope I did that right, I'm not always so adept at this Interweb thingie...) ANyway, Squeeee! baby bat! I *heart* bats. I remember being a little kid with a clothesline in the backyard, and using it to shoot the clothespins in the air because the bats would dive for them (before, of course, realizing that that was kind of mean...) They are amazing and fantastic little creatures.: NotSupposedToBeDoingThisAtWork; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:49 AM

Awwwww, sweet bebeh batty!: Subhangi; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:49 AM

(Looks like Deckard is a faster typist than I..): NotSupposedToBeDoingThisAtWork; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:50 AM

He looks like a greyhound who's had an unfortunate encounter with an umbrella. Cute!: Jo; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:50 AM

At first I thought was a bebeh deer, but no! It's a Bambi Bat, complete with missing mama. And just where do you get binkies that small?: Way Cool Groovy Chick; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:51 AM

Ahn, how cute!! There are a whole lot of cute bat pictures on the Bat World News page too.: Heavenly; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:52 AM

adorable!: Lioness; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:54 AM

Awwwww - batling! I heart bats - anything that eats it's own weight in mosquitoes is pretty keen in my book! I saw a baby bat at a zoo once - it looked like a damp leather glove at first, till it looked at you. Momma bats give birth hanging from their thumbs and they catch the baby with their feets as it comes out. Maybe this little guy got missed and they had to bring him to the bat-nursery to make sure he's all better.: wendy; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:54 AM

I forgot about that dude! I just got carried away in the omg cute bat moment. Thanks you two!: Kiddo; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:56 AM

I lof him. I wish to snorgle Die Fledermaus, please?: Redzilla; | Aug 02, 2007 at 10:56 AM

Cute little bat. I think bats are cool. They fly around our house in the evening. Love to watch them.: luvinmalssomuch; | Aug 02, 2007 at 11:01 AM

hahahahaaa Jo ur killing me..: Khadija; | Aug 02, 2007 at 11:08 AM

Who knew a bat needed a binky?: mm; | Aug 02, 2007 at 11:11 AM

People, really have a look at the Bat World site- in particular their adopt a bat program here: http://www.batworld.org/adopt_a_bat/adopt_a_bat.html surely worth your time!: Valentin; | Aug 02, 2007 at 11:15 AM

that the cuteist bat if ever seen and i hate bats!!!: caitlin black; | Aug 02, 2007 at 11:17 AM

Awwwww, a baby bat with a chooch! I love bats and I've never felt afraid of them (actually when I think of it, I am not really afraid of many animals -- meeting a bear might scare me however). When I worked in a pulp & paper plant, I'd occasionally come across an exhausted bat that had flown in and gotten lost in the cavernous basements under the paper machine. Two I found on the ground, utterly exhausted, and another flitting in circles that I had to gently knock down and capture. Wearing my work gloves, I'd carry them out and leave them in a shady, isolated spot. I loved it when they'd open their tiny pink mouths and hiss at me through tiny needle-like teeth. Too enarable! Two of my rescuees had fuzzy faces, one had a more pig-like nose. But I find all bats kinda cute. And when I'd come later to check on them, they'd be gone. Made me feel good.: Snowpea; | Aug 02, 2007 at 11:17 AM

CUTE they are for sure and what a job they do, for what would this world be without them. BUG INFESTED for sure: TukaWuvy; | Aug 02, 2007 at 11:23 AM

Fruit bats are my favorite. They have little puppy faces. So cute.: Chee; | Aug 02, 2007 at 11:27 AM

Valentin, thanks for the link! I am adopting a bat for sure! :): NotSupposedToBeDoingThisAtWork; | Aug 02, 2007 at 11:32 AM

How very cute and precious! Hope this one survives.: Jennifer; | Aug 02, 2007 at 11:36 AM

Its name is Eric.: Suda Nim; | Aug 02, 2007 at 11:42 AM

omg, lol. what a cutie!!! he's wondering where's the fruit juice?: jen; | Aug 02, 2007 at 11:45 AM

What a beauty! It kind of reminds me of a sleestack. I found a bat stuck in a sink of a vacant house last spring. I took it outside and gave it some melting snow to lick. It had the most precious little pink tongue.: Tugs; | Aug 02, 2007 at 11:47 AM

WOw, the story of Mr. Kitty on batworld just made me all teary. Just the sweetest story ever. http://www.batworld.org/adopt_a_bat/Mr.Kitty.html: Mouse; | Aug 02, 2007 at 11:51 AM

A baby fruit bat. Sort of like Bambi with wings -- and sharper teeth. Eew.: ThreeCatNight; | Aug 02, 2007 at 11:56 AM

So I went to Bat World (curiousity) and found this pic: http://www.batworld.org/rehab_training/images/babybottle.jpg The tininess just makes it so cute! Interesting into on that site as well.: Sweet Pea; | Aug 02, 2007 at 11:59 AM

The Boyfriend, a biology professor who did his Master's degree studying bats and small mamals in Latin America says its a baby fruit bat, possibly from Malaysia. And he'd like it known for the record that pipe and elbow patches on curdory jackets are optional to be a professor. *nod*: Amy; | Aug 02, 2007 at 12:03 PM
