Fantastic Fabric

Mudskipper: There are many things that are adorned with capybaras. This is because capybaras are so adorable. I’m not bragging, but there is no hiding the truth. Well, one of the things that can and is adorned with capybaras is fabric. If you don’t know what fabric is, it is that stuff that your clothes […]

Turning Five

Well, it finally happened! I turned five! And guess what I got for my birthday:bamboo! Delicious and nutritious. I’d much rather have bamboo than a dumb birthday cake. We capys aren’t into confections.

The Missing Year

Melanie: Well, Mudskipper’s birthday is coming up again. On February 7th she will be 5. That’s a big event for a little capybara. In the wild, very, very few capybaras reach the old age of five. Of course, if all goes well, she could live to be twice that old. Life in captivity is pretty […]

Things I Pretend to be

I hear human kids like to play pretend. So do capybaras. Or at least I do. All of my life I have pretended to be many things. Of course, being a capybara is the best possible thing to be, but I don’t need to pretend that.

Wings in the Water

The weather has been hot lately and I have been taking advantage of it. Actually, I took advantage of it when it wasn’t so hot, and maybe even when it was a little chilly. MelT is such a wimp! She won’t go in the pool unless it is as warm as a “bathtub,” whatever that […]

Caplin Day 2019

I can’t believe it is Caplin Day again already! Wow, the year went by really fast. Maybe that’s because I haven’t been posting like I said I would for my New Year’s resolution. I guess I’m not the first capybara to fail to keep one of those. Caplin Day is also known as Capybara Appreciation […]

I’m Back!

I haven’t been posting for a long time. Mostly that’s because I’m lazy, but it’s also because I have been sick. Really sick. I’ll write a post about that later, after I feel a little better. In the meantime, you can read this article about exotic pets and featuring your favorite pet capybara! Yes, Caplin […]

Spring is springing

Wow! Suddenly the weather is nice and the whole world has turned green! I have been waiting for this my whole life…or at least since last fall, that’s what MelT says anyway.

Happy Birthday to Me!

It’s my birthday! Yup. I was born on Feb. 7th 2014. That makes me very, very old. How old is that? Look for yourself.

Four is Coming!

Apparently MelT has stopped taking photos of me so I have to post old photos instead. I am just as cute as I have always been so I don’t know what her problem is. She says its too dark and cold, but she still makes me go outside.
