Somehow, it reminds me of Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit...

Bunny clouds! This design has so many fun surprises @Redbirdhermes. Sending the same lovely wishes your way for the New Lunar Year.
Lovely gav @Karenska! Christine Henry is a good bunny source!What a delightful introduction, Snausages! And many thanks to @xincinsin for her wonderful hosting last week.
Are the last two photos Wild Singapore?
Been thinking of where I have bunnies on my scarves and you, dear twin, have shown them on Premier Chant. I look forward to checking out my collection this week for all sorts of domestic and wild creatures, great and small. Forces de la Vie has a sweet hare:

Edited to rescind my question, @Snausages. I see it is DuJA - of course, bunnies! A beautiful cw. And little animals that I adore.
This is stunning and you look gorgeous @Ashanti_Rose -- I hope the concert was wonderful. Love Jazz at Lincoln Center.Happy New Lunar Year to everyone!
I am not on a theme but here is my SOTD from last night. Taking one of my Samorais to a jazz concert at Jazz at Lincoln Center last night

Beautiful cw @Snausages...
All great @Living.la.vida.fifi -- so fun to find the bunny on Cuvee. I was happy to see your Orphee bunny too and your new Tea for Two is wonderful on you. Congratulations!
I remember this one well @xincinsin and @Redbirdhermes!Very clever idea with the two gavs @xincinsin -- I almost used this strategy with Robe Legere for similar reasons-- thought two gavs might yield more flowers and less space... Your Pantheras are all beautiful. Nothing compares with Dallet's magnificent catsMy kids read it too, and mutter about vampiric bunnies when our veg in the fridge look limp
I was quite surprised to learn that in Vietnam, they celebrate the Year of the Cat rather than the Rabbit. I remember there was a song by that name. The big cat scarf which I find difficult to wear is Dallet's Panthera Pardus. The panther is majestic but hard to feature when you wear it. Here in a 90 and 2 gavs.

I am on team Zenobie for this one @supermommy101 -- so beautiful, auspicious and festive with your lovely jewelry.
Beautiful @Naessi-- I always love your selections and I am your twin on that gorgeous cw of the charming Tea for Two!
You need to add bunny scarves to your Hunt List @Nomad! These are great examples...

I did not know about these rabbits! They are wonderful - and that one who escaped down at the bottom!
I am really hoping this thing is mythical and not real. OMG
Welcome to Day 2 of the Paws for Thought theme week! Today we're focusing on kitties*! Housecats. Kittycats. Pussycats. Tomcats. Grimalkins. There are somewhere between fifteen and 73 breeds of cat, depending on your source. These include the fluffy Persian, the sleek Siamese, the tail-less Manx and the hairless Sphynx. The smallest breed is the Singapura, which weighs under 5 pounds. The largest breed is the Maine Coon (aka fluff monster) which can weigh as much as 25 pounds.
There are many famous cats: Morris, Grumpy, Smudge, Puss in Boots, Garfield, Sylvester, the Cheshire Cat.
Man’s love of feline companionship is not new. In ancient Egypt, cats were sacred animals, and often mummified at the sanctuary of the cat goddess Bastet or entombed with their owners’ remains. Abraham Lincoln had two cats, one which was fed with a gold fork, and the other which was reputed to be smarter than Lincoln’s whole cabinet. France launched a cat into space (Felicette, who was chosen for her calm disposition, survived the flight), and tradition has a mouser with Britain’s Prime Minister at 10 Downing Street.
Kitties are featured prominently in Daphne Duchesne’s Les Chats, Christine Henry’s Cave Felem, and Florence Manlik’s Le Chat Carre.
I went searching my scarf drawer for a good ol’ grimalkin, and found them in Pierre Marie’s La Maison des Carres, and Dimitri Rybaltchenko’s Sur Mon Nuage.
And so, my Silken Sisters and Brothers, I ask you to show me your kitties! Bonus points for showing your real life catkins!
(*Have no fear – wild cats will be featured later this week! And remember, any SOTD is on-theme!)

Oh, good morning and thank you @Snausages-- what great scarves and examples. I wish we could have cats at my house but everyone is so allergic (including me!) so we have to admire from afar and love our hypo-allergenic dogs! If I did have a cat, it might be tempted to nestle into one of my orange boxes and become as flat as the little kitty on my SOTD: Le Chat Carre!
And now I’m off on a tangent of killer rabbits, with Monty Python’s lethal lagomorphMy kids read it too, and mutter about vampiric bunnies when our veg in the fridge look limp

This would of course be less humorous had they featured a panther. A lot of times I feel like the personal meaning of a scarf is the wearer’s private secret. I hope your Pardus doesn’t feel slighted this week!
Contributing some Chats. I have a weakness for kitties and BIN this design whenever I find it at a reasonable price point.

Also, there are entire websites devoted to the loaf form of dogs and cats. I just discovered them today! And fell off my chair when I saw this photo of an extremely loaflike corgi!

Many thanks LKB, MAGJES, Snausages and fifi!
Happy Lunar Year of the Rabbit (or Cat) silkies! Lots of fUn furry deets and regretfully I released my Zodiac Rabbit scarf because I hoped to collect all the zodiac pochettes and H stopped producing my zodiac year (Ram) and DD’s (Year of the Monkey). But, the lovely winter to spring design Ballade de Heian makes up for the loss!
one of my fav furry creatures silks of the north: la Vie du grand Nord. Honore captured huskies, Polar bears and creatures with such sweet faces.

Thank you moma ... they‘re escaping from your propertie!
Yes! Whether it’s to armour ourselves against adversity with Samourais or L’egides de Mars, laugh at the superficiality of the modern world with Hermes Story, find a moment of grounding and serenity with Siestes au paradis, adorn ourselves with Parures des sables, or channel our inner queen with Zenobie, there’s a scarf for every occasion. A secret message for the wearer, and perhaps the initiated few who share our silky obsession.
It would make a really fun theme for next year, perhaps?
Here are some rabbits on Petit Venerie, or small game hunting, designed by Charles-Jean Hallo in 1971.
My teal version is sisters with the red version shown by @Croisette7 yesterday. Petit Venerie is my scarf of the day.
And, my apologies to the sweet kitty on Sur Mon Nuage for missing her yesterday.
