cross-dressing rabbit!

Warning: Spoilers
This is a cute little Bugs Bunny short where Bugs and Casbah both vie for the affections of a lady rabbit, Daisy Lou. Casbah is bigger and stronger, so Bugs decides to use his brain to outwit this bunny. He dresses up like Daisy Lou and pretends to be her--inviting Casbah to the house for some hanky-panky. Casbah is smitten and doesn't notice it's Bugs (he's apparently not too bright). During their time together, Bugs repeatedly knocks the stuffing out of Casbah until he eventually knocks him out of the running. A bit later, Daisy Lou returns and finds Bugs waiting. The accidentally eats one of the exploding carrots Bugs used on Casbah and then immediately kisses Bugs--at which point, they feel the explosion and think it must be true love.

The cartoon deserves credit for high production values and an unusual script. A very good but not great Bug Bunny effort.
