The Rodent Robber (Part Next: Fluffy Strikes Again!)
I love squirrels, you know I do. As Rodent Royalty it is my responsibility to love all of my subjects. But sometimes they don’t make it easy.
The Elusive Lesser Capybara: Video Edition
Smelly is being really lazy about getting her photos together of the lesser capybaras she saw in Panama. In case you’ve forgotten about them (but how could you?) here is a link to our first post on lesser capys.
I Can Haz Cheezburger?
Sometimes rodents have to work together to achieve fame, and that’s what Bakersfield and I are doing. We are each cute separately but we are exponentially cuter together.
The Price of Cuteness – Part 1
I am a capybara. I am cute. I have to get used to it. There is nothing I can do about it. But it comes with a cost and that cost is visitors fawning over me, feeding me, scratching and petting me, giving me treats and hugging me. The only one of those things I […]
San Diego Zoo Capybaras
Owner’s Blog: I was out in California last week to visit my sister and I couldn’t pass up the chance to visit the world famous San Diego Zoo. Last time I was there, about five years ago, they did not have capybaras but I knew that they had a band of them now and I […]

Super Saturday Part I
I don’t know whether to love weekends or to hate them. The good thing is that Melly doesn’t have to go off to work in the morning. The bad thing is that Melly doesn’t have to go off to work in the morning. I’ll attempt to explain why I have such conflicting feelings using this […]
ARITHMETIC
Do you remember when I introduced you to my new rat co-pet Bakersfield last month? Well, here he is again! We are learning to get along, which seems much easier for Bake than it is for me. Bake is like the bravest rodent that ever lived and I guess I might be the most fearful. […]

Maybe later we’ll be able to get him to touch with the paw but the trick is pretty cute as it is. Kind of reminds me of a dressage horse.
