Eeyore ( Ã, ( listen ) EE -or ) is a character in AA Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh book. He is generally characterized as a pink gray, dreary, depressed, anhedonic, old donkey who is a friend of the title character, Winnie-the-Pooh.

In books
Eeyore appears in chapters IV, VI, VII, and X of Winnie-the-Pooh , and is mentioned in several others. He also appears in all chapters of The House at Pooh Corner except chapter VII. Its name is an onomatopoeic representation of the braying sound made by normal donkeys, usually represented as "hee haw" in American English: spelling with "r" is explained by the fact that Milne and most of the intended audience speak non-English where " r "in" Eeyore "is not pronounced as/r/.
Physically, Eeyore is described as "an old gray donkey." In his illustrations Ernest H. Shepard, he looks like Pooh's high chin and about hip-high to Christopher Robin. He has a long and removable tail with a pink bow at the end, which he loves very much, but he is also vulnerable to defeat (Owl never mistakenly thinks of it as a bell). Christopher Robin is able to reattach the tail with the image pins.
At The House at Pooh Corner , Eeyore's literacy level is not clear. When Christopher Robin shows him the letter "A," Eeyore does not understand what it means, just knowing that "it means learning," something he really wants to see as his own, but he angrily destroys the letter after finding the Rabbit (who is well-educated) already knowing it. Nevertheless, he spelled his own name "eoR" when signing "rissolution" given by animals to Christopher Robin as a parting gift in the last chapter. Eeyore also wrote an awkward poem called "POEM", which appeared in "rissolution", making him the only character in Winnie-the-Pooh's book other than Pooh himself who tried to write poetry (the fact that Eeyore himself notes). When Pooh humbly states that Eeyore's poetry is better than his own, it really is true, "Eeyore vainly replied that" it should be. "
Eeyore has a bad opinion about most of the other animals in the Forest, describing them as having "No brains at all, some of them", "just the gray feathers blown on their heads by mistake" (from chapter 1 of > The House at Pooh Corner ). Eeyore's favorite food is thistles. He lives in the southeast corner of Hundred Acre Wood, in the area labeled "Eeyore's Gloomy Place: Rather Boggy and Sad" on the map in the book. He has a stick home there called the House at Pooh Corner. Pooh and Piglet built it for him after accidentally misidentified Eeyore's original home for a pile of sticks. On Eeyore's birthday, he was given an empty honey bottle from Pooh to store the items in it, a red balloon that emerged from Piglet to be stored in a pot, and a note from Owl.
Eeyore is also surprisingly nice in the Poohsticks game, winning more times than anyone else when played in the sixth chapter.

Disney adaptation
Eeyore appeared in the Winnie the Pooh cartoon popularized by The Walt Disney Company. She's a bit less spicy and sarcastic in the Disney version than in Milne's original story. While often a supporting character, Winnie the Pooh and a Day for Eeyore focuses on it. He is physically one of the more powerful animals and is often treated as a packaged animal whenever there is a call for one. His home regularly collapsed, but he always rebuilt it. He usually expects misfortune to happen to him, accepts it when it happens and seldom even tries to prevent it. His slogan is "Thank you for your notice" and "Ohhh-kayyy".
Despite his depressive nature, Eeyore was able to have a great sense of compassion, while in his books he was more apathetic. Some episodes of The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh episode give this example, including "Donkey for a Day", "Stripes", "Home is Where the Home is" and "Eeyi Eeyi Eeyore". Eeyore is usually one of the core groups of animals, along with Pooh, Piglet, Rabbit and Tigger. Of these five people, he is the most reluctant to follow their plan or adventure, but not against them because he believes it is useless to try.
In adaptation, Eeyore has developed close friendship with Tigger. Despite their opposite personality, Eeyore's passive traits and Tigger's optimism and fatigue help them to better understand each other's flaws and understand each other. Their closeness begins at the end of Winnie the Pooh and a Day for Eeyore and continues later in the day as Winnie the Pooh's New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh Thanksgiving. and the movie Winnie the Pooh .
Its tail is not always fixed on it by nails, though Disney has chosen this as part of its permanent image. When Eeyore loses his tail, Owl finds it and uses it as a bell next to his door before Pooh finds it for Eeyore. Christopher Robin then replaced it. According to Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree, this is probably because Eeyore is full of sawdust. In Disney merchandise, Eeyore sometimes has an unusual smile. In animation, Eeyore is a natural gray, though it is blue with a pink muzzle in merchandising. He appeared at Walt Disney Parks and Resorts to meet and greet.
