Oolong, known to most as the ‘pancake bunny’ has passed away. He was a sweet little bunny, that balanced various items on his head and loved to pose for photography.
There is an LJ Community in his honor and the original site for Oolong and his owner is here, although it is in Japanese.
Are there sadder, more tragic things going on in the world right now? Of course. Was Oolong ‘just a rabbit’? I don’t know…
But the point is he was a creature that brought a lot of smiles and giggles to a lot of people, and now he’s gone, and I just wanted to say good bye…
and now…I will put this pastry on my head in tribute.
I don’t know… he looked kinda shifty in those pictures. Something about the eyes.
He looks like the kind of guy, you think he’s all sweetness and light… “Oh, Oolong’s a great guy! He reads to blind tubercular orphans, y’know”… you’re borrowing each other’s car keys – and you turn your back for one second -just one second- and BAM! In with the shiv!
