Bugs Bunny: Rabbit's Kin

Characters: (3) Bugs Bunny, Pete Puma and Shorty

Released in 1952 and directed by Robert McKimson, "Rabbit's Kin" heralded Pete Puma into cartoon history.

Though Mel Blanc is held as the main voice artist in "Rabbit's Kin," the cartoon also features well-known artist Stan Freberg as the voice of Pete Puma.

The original drawing was rendered by Juan Ortiz and the master hand-inked by Laurie Dindis. The background was painted by Hector Martinez and reproduced with the fine art Giclee process.

You can find the summary of the story here in Wikipedia.

Here goes a memorable quote from Rabbit's Kin (1952) (extracted from IMDB)

Bugs Bunny: Eh, what's up, Doc?
Pete Puma: I got a little rabbit in this hole. And I gonna catch the little rabbit and eat him up. Eeeeee!
Bugs Bunny: A little rabbit? wouldn't you rather have a big rabbit?
Pete Puma: Er... Yeah!
Bugs Bunny: Well here I am. Take me.
Pete Puma: Mmmm, num, num, slurp
Bugs Bunny: [Slaps pete's hands] Take your dirty mitts off of me! What do you think you're doing?
Pete Puma: But you told me to, you told me to, you told me to!
Pete Puma: [Hands Bugs a cigar] How 'bout having a cee-gar
Bugs Bunny: Gee thanks [sniffs cigar]
Bugs Bunny: Mmmm, nice.
[Sees it's an El Explodo cigar; Pete presents Bugs with a light, but Bugs puts the cigar in his pocket]
