''Rabbit's Kin'' is a 1952 ''[[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Merrie Melodies]]'' short directed by Creator/RobertMckimson, starring WesternAnimation/BugsBunny.

In this short, Bugs meets a young unnamed rabbit (dubbed "Shorty" by him) who warns him of a ferocious beast that tried to eat them. Bugs realizes said "ferocious beast" is the dimwitted Pete Puma, and decides to help the young rabbit out while having some "fun" with Pete while he's at it.

!!''Rabbit's Kin'' provides examples of:
*AmbiguousGender: It's not quite made clear whether the young rabbit is a boy or a girl.
* BrickJoke: Pete gives Bugs an exploding cigar at the beginning, which Bugs decides to save for later. After a spot of tea with Pete which ends in Bugs giving him some [[CranialEruption Cranial Eruptions]], he promptly gives him the cigar.
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Pete (disguised as the young rabbit's mother) stops Bugs from setting up tea with him a second time... because he'd rather have coffee.
* CranialEruption: Bugs provides a few to Pete throughout the short whenever he asks for some lumps for his tea/coffee/oven.
* ExactWords: Bugs will always give Pete some "lumps" when he wants them. Also, when he gives Pete 5 lumps instead of 4 like he asked, he takes a tiny hammer and pounds one of the lumps in until only 4 are left.
* ExplosiveCigar: Pete gives one to Bugs, though unfortunately for him he decides to save it for later instead of having it right then and there. Even more unfortunately, [[HoistByHisOwnPetard Bugs lets him have it shortly afterwards]].
* GotMeDoingIt: At the end of the short, Bugs makes the same inhaling noise Pete had been making throughout the short.
* ImmediateSelfContradiction: Bugs tells Pete he should take him instead of the young rabbit, convincing the puma to grab him by the hand. Bugs immediately slaps Pete, offended the puma would try and touch him unprompted.
-->Pete: But you told me to, you told me to, you told me to!
* NoNameGiven: The young rabbit Bugs meets doesn't seem to have been given a name. Bugs dubs them "Shorty", though it's unknown whether this is its actual name or nickname.
* OhCrap: When asked by his "cousin" how many lumps of coal he wants for the fire, Pete tells him he'll need "a whooole lot of lumps". He immediately realizes he just talked to Bugs and that he's about to give him [[CranialEruption exactly what he asked for]].
* PaperThinDisguise: Notable in that for once, it's Bugs's foe that actually tries to pull this off, claiming to be the Shorty's mother. Neither Bugs nor Shorty are fooled.
** Bugs himself does this in his usual fashion at the end, claiming to be Pete's cousin Paul Puma. Pete doesn't realize it's him [[OhCrap until he asks for some lumps]] (of coal).
* RuleOfThree: Bugs asks Pete how many "lumps" he'd like three times throughout the short.
* SecretMessageWink: Shorty pleads for Bugs not to let them go with his "mother" (Pete in disguise), but Bugs makes it clear he knows the guise and intends on giving Pete another workout this way, convincing Shorty to go along.
* TheUnintelligible: PlayedWith regarding Shorty. They actually ''are'' speaking English, provied by Mel Blanc, it's just pitched up to the point where it's sort of hard to make out without slowing the audio down. Bugs conveniently repeats abbreviated versions of what they said.
* TooDumbToLive: Pete manages to prevent Bugs from clobbering him [[RuleOfThree for a third time]], claiming he'll get the lumps himself... and he then proceeds to ''start hitting himself on the head repeatedly''.
* VerbalTic: Pete makes a loud inhaling sound after speaking sometimes.
