Honey Bunny the Nips" (1944), a shapely robotic female rabbit used as a bait for Bugs by Gossamer's creator in the cartoon "Hair-Raising Hare" (1946), Daisy Lou (who bears a strong resemblance to Honey Bunny's eventual character design from the 1970s-1990s) in the above-mentioned cartoon "Hare Splitter" (1948), Witch Hazel (who is transformed into an attractive female rabbit) in the cartoon "Bewitched Bunny" (1954), and Millicent (an overweight rabbit) in the cartoon "Rabbit Romeo" (1957). Mama Bear, in "Bugs Bunny and the Three Bears" (1944); Penelope Pussycat, in "Carrotblanca" (1995); and Elmer Fudd, in "Bugs' Bonnets" (1956) and "Rabbit of Seville" (1950),
Bugs Bunny in both the 855th Bomb Squadron of the 491st Bombardment Group (Heavy) and later in the 786th BS of the 466th BG(H), both being part of the 8th Air Force operating out of England. In 1944, Bugs Bunny made a cameo appearance in "Jasper Goes Hunting", a Puppetoons film produced by rival studio Paramount Pictures. In this cameo (animated by McKimson, with Blanc providing the usual voice), Bugs (after being threatened at gunpoint) pops out of a rabbit hole, saying his usual catchphrase; after hearing the orchestra play the wrong theme song, he realizes "Hey, I'm in the wrong picture!"
