Cis-snake on bun is a 13-cell still life which involves a snake stabilising a bun.

This specific isomer is named cis due to having a smaller bounding box, as the two "ends" of each island are effectively aligned. Since the snake is a stable pattern by itself, the term on is used rather than and.

Commonness

Information on this still life's commonness with respect to other naturally-occurring patterns is currently unknown.

Glider synthesis

All strict still lifes with a population of 22 or fewer cells, all oscillators with 16 or fewer cells, and all spaceships with 31 or fewer cells are known to be glider-constructible. A glider synthesis of this object can be found in the infobox to the right.
