Casanova Rabbit

Casanova Rabbit is a 1951 American animated short film produced by Harold Walker Studios and released by Standard Films.

Synopsis
Boggy Bunny heads to Balloon Cat's home to woo her with flowers, dragging Herby, tied to a bow, with him. Once inside, Boggy winds Herby into a doll and forces him to roll on a ball, impressing Balloon Cat. Boggy then blackens Herby's face with cigar smoke and blowing it. He forces Herby to tap-dance by lighting up a metal plate. Boggy then gives Herby as a present to Balloon Cat, but asks for a kiss in return. Just as Boggy Bunny and Balloon Cat are about to kiss, Herby jams Boggy's tail into an automatic ashtray, causing Boogy to scream in Balloon Cat's face.

Herby spots Charlie singing a couple of lines from "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling" (his singing was provided by Bob Shamrock) in a nearby alley and launches the newspaper headline towards Charlie. Boggy and Charlie proceed to fight each other to win Balloon Cat's heart, while Balloon Cat, sitting on the couch, watches them. Boggy slaps Charlie (because he slapped him) into a fishbowl, but Boggy ties Butch's tail to a pole. Balloon Cat then tosses sweets into Boggy's mouth, but Charlie drops a bowling ball into Boggy. Butch kisses Ballon Cat's arm, but Boggy places a mousetrap onto her arm to trap Charlie's kissing mouth. Boggy then traps Charlie between two doors and kisses Balloon Cat's cheek. Charlie then grabs Balloon Cat and goes to kiss her, but Boggy also turns around to also kiss Balloon Cat, but the two kiss each other instead and Boggy turns around and attacks Charlie in the face.

Herby then kisses Balloon Cat on the cheek, causing her to take an interest in Herby. Boggy and Charlie chase Herby, but Herby hides in a vent, ties Charlie and Boggy's tails into a knot, and pull their tails to make them pull each other into the wall repeatedly. Charlie then runs forward, squeezing Boggy through the vent. Boggy then pops out of the vent as a cube and bangs into Charlie. Then they untangle themselves. Afterwards, they looked on the couch for Balloon Cat and search for her. However, they then hear a noise outside. Both rabbits ran to the window to look at what is happening and see a car leaving. Balloon Cat and Herby are in the back seat, then after Herby has put down the shade in the car, he and Balloon Cat share a love-kiss.
