Bono sure is the image of "dead bunny" when he does that: http://f1.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/lew...Bono+Bunny.jpg or http://f1.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/lewemi/detail?.dir=/X-mas&.dnm=Red+hot!.jpg this is in front of the fire place at my parents' bunny cause he usually keeps his front paws together (and abys are known as "rabbit cats") and the other part because I have to go up to check if he is breathing every so often ...
