Random Norbert

Somebody asked for Norbert, and here’s a recent video of the fluffy little pooch, who apparently comes equipped with a “run in random directions” setting.

    Thanks for continuing with the Qte! You have successfully enabled my continued addiction to adorable animals.

    Norbert, I’ve missed you, little guy! Good to see you here!

    Norbert reminds me of my cat when she gets on one her running jags.

    Norbert is so sweet! I love his prosh little tongue.

    But I have to say I mildly obsessed over how nice the carpeting looks in that house. Between that and Maru’s house I feel very inadequate. 😀

    Go Norbert! Go Norbert! Go Norbert! Go Norbert!

    I’ve tried to point out to my husband that a morsel-sized pup like Norbert wouldn’t be a problem for his cat allergies, but for some reason he thinks I’m just besotted with Norbert. Gee, I don’t know why that would be.

    I love how he tucks his little rumpus. My bunns run around like that and we call it the sillies or the zoomies.

    Thanks for that, I’ve missed that little beaner. There was also a little Yorkie that did agility with paper cups – can’t remember the name, Mika?

      Oh, I love Misa Minnie! She’s such a teeny sweetie — and so talented! Her owner clearly loves her to death to spend so much time teaching her so many tricks, and you know Misa Minnie loves every minute of it!

    I think this is the first time I’ve seen Norbert actually moving. (Maybe I’ve missed other videos.) I used to feel sorry for him, wondering if he truly had a good life. Now that I’ve seen this video, I can tell that he is healthy, happy, and well taken care of by those who love him. Thank you, Norbert, for a little humility, and thank you, Mike, for posting this. Norbert has a new fan.

      I’ve never seen Norbs in action before either – love it! I didn’t start out as a Norbert fan, but he has won me over.

    My cats do that in the evening, one will start then another will join in the running, and another and soon I have 5 cats zooming around the house. I call it driving mommy crazy time 🙂

      The running of the cats at Gigi’s home. By chance are your cats from Pamplona?

    Seeing Norbert so happy makes me happy. Random setting is funny. He’s so tiny he can rack up distance in a small area.

    Ahhh Norbert at NTMTOM. Life is good.

        Oh, thank you for posting this – how did I ever miss it at the time? Wonderful!

      • 6rabbits February 20, 2016 / 12:27 pm

        I missed this, too, and it’s hysterical! One of the best NTMTOM songs I think!

        • Mr. Max February 20, 2016 / 11:41 pm

          Hmmmm..that’s like trying to pick the best Beatles song! Can’t be done!

    Is that Norbert or a dust bunneh with leggies?!

  12. 6rabbits February 20, 2016 / 12:36 pm

    Apparently I’ve never seen Norbert’s tail! It doesn’t even look like it belongs to him…like someone played pin-the-tail-on-the-doggeh!? Many of my rabbits have had this random zooming ability. Always amazes me they don’t crash into tables and furniture! With rabbits this activity also comes with flip-kicks, helicoptor reverses mid-air, and foot-high popcorning! No video to share, darn it!

      We so need some video of those amazing bunny moves. What’s popcorning?
