Must... get... fatter!
The UK Daily Mail is reporting that this anerable dormouse had to fatten up before going into hibernation mode [zzzzzzz] So rescue workers worked feverishly to stuff him full of delectabuhl ivy pollen and blackberries.
For some reason he also lives in a coconut apartment. "Dozey" is now sleeping peacefully and will wake up refreshed in April. I bet he'll have the tiniest of beards then.
Thanks, Manoj E.G. [Closing up coconut door for lights out]

coconut HOOOOOOUUUUSSSSEEE!
also, cute feets.
Isn't there some song about a coconut grove I hear it sort of in my head but it won't come out.
Look he comes equiped with his own adorable handle too
I wanna mouse in a coconut house!
And I wanna nibble on the feets and beep the nosey.
I lurve the coconut house the most!
Coconut apartment? What is the world coming to?
Clearly, they should have put him in a teapot.
Wouldn't the coconut rot and develop bateria and other organic matter that could harm him?
Coconut apartment = instant death by Qte
Goodbye, cute world!

I want a coconut house! And a dormouse! And, frankly, I wouldn't mind going to sleep until April.
If he ate the coconut of his house, he'd be fat in no time.
Dormouse singing in squeaky voice: Twinkle, twinkle leetle bat, how I wonder what you're at, up above the world so high, like a teatray in teh sky. Twinkle, twinkle....
Fat dormouse + coconut house = SQUEEEEEEE!!!!
that first picture keels me. excessive squishulence!
mousie's like "put dee lime in dee coconut..."
This is entirely too much for me to take. I think I blacked out from the cuteness.
Curious--apparently he is hibernating in a cold room at the sanctuary. The coconut house was just for fun.
Louis Carroll meets raggae! Twinkle twinkle little nut, I put dee lime in and drank it all up!
Curled toesies! Tailio! Total BEF too. What a cute lil chubster. Love the coconut condo.
Unlike our lil friend here, i have no problem gaining weight and sleeping long hours in winter. *sigh*
why dont I have a coconut apartment????
Oh fer cryin' out loud. This takes redonkulousness to a whole new level. I mean, the cow pic was great, but this? I think I just had an aneurysm of Qteness.
If I get a coconut and leave it out overnight, in the morning will there be a dormouse in the coco-house?
Coconut Grove, by the Beach Boys. Hmmmm, if I leave out a coconut will a beach-boy show up in it? ; )
It's a mouse-colada, just needs a straw, yum.
second picture, he's all "scuse me could you please hand me my tailio?"
Put the mouse in da coconut and drink it all up, put da mouse in the coconut.....call me in the morning.
Wouldn't it be delightful to live on a diet of ivy pollen and blackberries? A fairy diet! LOL
The whiskers! The curled up ball! The COCONUT HOUSE! Do you think he has trouble hanging up art, with round walls and all?

Yeah, that totally sounds like something in a fairy tale... "Alice watched as the fairy nibbles on the blackberries, then sipped a little of the ivy pollen from her tiny cup."

I of course find the line funny, not the idea.
o. m. g. i totally love coconut and now i love coconut houses. it would smell soooooo goooood in thar. i could totally fit in there if he'd just smoosh up a little and then we could hibernate together.
Oh, dear lord, the QTE curled up piddies!!!!
"For some reason?" Who wouldn't live in a coconut apartment if they could fit?
This reminds me of the mouse houses made from used wimbledon tennis balls that were on this site a while ago. Teho, can you post the link?
OMG!!! The feet! Oh the little feet! I feel faint. Must lay down before my head splodes from the qte!
squee
*clears throat*
I have no more in me...between the cow-nappingks and the dormousiecoconuttysmooshfest I'm done. just. done.
I cannot stand coconut but the mousie is deliciously cute. (And, I now know why I am getting fatter every day and want to sleep.. I am a dormouse trapped in a human body! Or .. maybe a bear.. probably closer to the right size.)
Haha, cute! I love the BEF and feetsies :P I'm also diggin' the coconut house - I should try that sometime! XD
I'm lovin' the widdle mousie, his anerable coco-nuthouse, and best of all the earworms. But CCat, you forgot to add the hiccups in between the doormouse's stanzas. I can hear him very clearly in my mind, singing his little song.
*squee*
still done......
*sigh*
i actually gasped! when i first saw the feet...and btw there is a button on the dormouse site to donate teapots to this organization, complete w postage stamp portraits of Notable Things.
"REeeeee-membeeeeeeerrrrrrr
What the Dormouse saaaiid!"
I LOVE IT! ....I also wish I could find a coconut that had that much actual coconut inside!
i wish i could stuff myself with yummies then sleep all through this icky winter.
i can't take it anymore! move over dormouse, i'm comin' in...
*poke. poke. poke poke. pokepokepokepoke POP*
AArrrgh!!
*runs away*
EXTREMELY CUTE!
SixFootJen, I'm with you!

That's it. I give up on this site. It's not good for my health to continuously faint due to light-headed spells caused by incessant squealingks of qteness.
NO MORE, I SAY! ;)
angh! gurp buh. curled toes. nneyh!
Awww! (Now all I can think of is the Mad Hatter's Tea Party.)
Must get fatter? I wish I had that problem! Too bad I can't go to bed and wake up skinny next April. LOL!
