cabbit

What you get when you cross a cat with a rabbit. Big floppy ears, a poofy tail, and a bad attitude. This is a creature from the Tenchi Muyo series, which is also a space ship of the space pirate Ryoko.

There is actually some dispute among anime fans whether to call these cute critters from Tenchi Muyo "cabbits" or "catbunnies". The devotees of each name thinks the other sounds incredibly silly.

A similar naming crisis formerly existed among some Bubblegum Crisis fans as to whether the biomechanical androids in the anime are "Boomers" or "Bumas".
