Slog used to put cute animal pictures up all the time and I thought this was perfect. This deer is tiny and darling and deserves to be seen by people everywhere.
Photos at the Daily Mail, plus details that will give you diabetes of the mind:
…staff at Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital in Buckinghamshire believe Rupert, as he has been named, will make a full recovery….
At five days old, he is being kept in an incubator and has just opened his eyes.
Mikki, we apologize for being remiss of late in the cute animals department. Efforts are being redoubled.
So sweet!

THAT LOOKS DELICIOUS!!!
Aww.
Not only is the deer cute, but have you ever seen such a precious, adorable URL??
That will soon be on the menu at Quinn’s at Bethany can’t wait to dig in!
Just raise it on a nice diet of grasses and grains then in a year or so blow it’s brains out and chow down!!!
But seriously, why haven’t they bred mini-deer that you could keep as an outdoor pet? And naturally we would domesticate them to be friendly.
I can’t decide which is cuter, the baby deer or the name of the animal hospital.
The Daily Mail may be a crap newspaper, but whoever does its adorable-animal coverage deserves medals.
Sometimes I found the cutsie animal pics a little cloying, and didn’t really miss them. However, I confess this is just about the cutest thing I’ve ever seen. Ever.
I believe Tiggywinkles has appeared before in Cute Animal Watch.
@3: good work.
Rupert? What kind of name is that for a deer? They’ve doomed that poor deer to being the other guy in all those British period dramas. Colin would’ve gotten top billing…
#7: They have. They’re called whippets.
These are dark, depressing times and it gets worse: Cute Overload has it the Rupert has died. I’ll be under the covers.
