Found a toy bunny outside the House of Commons

This poor bunny was left outside Westminster yesterday. Is anyone missing bunny? He looks well loved.

I am keeping bunny safe until he can be reunited with his owner.

It doesn't look like a plastic nose to me. Looks like the same bunny - to an untrained eye at least!

Good to hear she's not a Tory! Grin

Mirandawest · 31/12/2016 09:09

I do hope it is the right Bunny

Mooey89 · 31/12/2016 09:10

Political bunny definitely has a pink fabric nose.

SoupDragon · 31/12/2016 09:10

Looks like a fabric nose to me. You can see faint bobbling on it.

ChipInTheSugar · 31/12/2016 09:17

Have zoomed in on a previous pic - I say fabric nose too.

I think blue bunny's ears are too long Xmas Sad

ohfourfoxache · 31/12/2016 09:17

Oh I'm hoping so hard that this has a happy ending!

Relieved. There's still a good chance. DD2 says she will know if it's her "by asking her" Smile. Bears I wonder what effect having spent 5 months living in a devolved, social democratic society will have had on her affiliations? Will she come back expecting DD's tuition fees to be paid and me to get free nursing care in old age?

EElisavetaOfBelsornia · 31/12/2016 09:22

BB's ears do look very long in the picture I posted but I think that may be the position of her head . Bicycle Bunny's ears look quite long?

APlaceOnTheCouch · 31/12/2016 09:23

Will she come back with a Scottish accent? I'm guessing bunny is determined to enjoy Hogmanay in Scotland before she/he heads home Grin

SolomanDaisy · 31/12/2016 09:24

I think they're the same bunny, DS has the same one. It's jellycat, isn't it?

myoriginal3 · 31/12/2016 09:25

I can imagine the tears from Dd when blue bunny returns with a Scottish accent.

DoctorTwo · 31/12/2016 09:30

It would be lovely if Bunny's human has been found! Not placemarking, oh no, not me

EElisavetaOfBelsornia · 31/12/2016 09:31

I think they were called Bashful Bunnies SolomanDaisy, not sure if they are Jellycats. DD1 got Blue Bunny as her gift for DD2 when she was born.

Doublemint · 31/12/2016 09:40

This is my favourite thread I've read on here in ages!

aforestgrewandgrew · 31/12/2016 10:15

Bashful Bunny is indeed made by Jellycat. I love Jellycat, they're so soft.

SuperFlyHigh · 31/12/2016 10:21

Place marking!

SocksRock · 31/12/2016 10:25

Oooh I hope this is it!

Westminster bunny is definitely a cream (if a bit dirty) bashful bunny by jellycat. And Bunny has a fabric nose.

Unfortunately, Bunny is spending the festive season in London while Bunny's temporary keeper celebrates Hogmanay in Scotland, so I can't check. I will be back in London on the 9th or 10th though.

I only received one email, by the way, which I replied to... should there have been another?

Bunny seems quite partial to the idea of free tuition I think.

I sent you another one with pictures of Blue Bunny - I'll send it again. I'm very hopeful that she may be The One. Squeeeeee indeed!!

EElisavetaOfBelsornia · 31/12/2016 10:38

Oh and the ears are definitely long in the picture of the two of you!!

Keremy · 31/12/2016 10:51

Love this thread. I'm so glad bunny was kept for so long and hoping for a little miracle.
