Eeyore is a pessimistic, gloomy, depressed, anhedonic, old grey stuffed donkey who is a friend with Winnie-the-Pooh, Tigger, Kanga, and the other animals in the Hundred Acre Wood. He has a long, detachable tail with a pink bow on the end, of which he is very fond, but which he is also prone to losing , but Christopher Robin Milne is able to reattach the tail with a drawing pin. Eeyore's favorite food is thistles.

He lives in the southeast corner of the Hundred Acre Wood, in an area labeled "Eeyore's Gloomy Place: Rather Boggy and Sad" on the map in the Winnie-the-Pooh book. He has a stick house therein called The House at Pooh Corner. Pooh and Piglet built it for him after accidentally mistaking the original house that Eeyore built for a pile of sticks. On Eeyore's birthday, he is given an empty honey jar from Pooh for keeping things in, a popped red balloon from Piglet to keep in the pot, and a note from Owl.

Eeyore is also surprisingly good at the game Poohsticks, winning more times than anyone else when it is played.

Eeyore's level of literacy is unclear. When Christopher Robin shows him the letter "A", Eeyore does not understand its meaning, knowing only that "it means learning", something he desperately wants to be seen as having, but he angrily destroys the letter after finding that Rabbit (who is quite literate) knows about it already.
