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.
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.
My Birthday Cometh
It is almost my birthday! I’m going to be four big ones! My birthday is Feb. 7th. Make sure you mark your calendars!
New Year, New Me (Just Kidding)
I do not know what this “New Year” thing is. One day it was the old year, next day it’s the new year. Doesn’t a whole year have to pass between those things? Who can understand humans! Or maybe MelT made the whole thing up.
Visitors Galore!
I had so many visitors this past weekend! It really wore me out. See that photo above? And that wasn’t even all of them. MelT says I wasn’t very accomodating. I don’t know what that means, so maybe I wasn’t.
what the ROUS Foundation Means to Me
Melanie’s post: I think a lot of you know that after Caplin Rous’s death in January of 2011, I started a charity called the ROUS Foundation for Capybara Veterinary Medicine (RF). I am happy to say that the RF has done a lot of good work for captive capybaras and their caretakers, but it hasn’t […]

I’m the You in YouTube

My pneumonia cleared up but I am still not quite myself. MelT is always worrying about me, even when I’m in tip-top shape, so you can imagine what a stress her stress is putting […]
In Memoriam: Joejoe the Capybara Kennedy
It is hard to lose such an enormous personality as Joejoe the Capybara. Arguably, he took over the crown of World’s Most Famous Capybara after Caplin died. As a capybara ambassador, Joejoe was the best, most outgoing, brave, photogenic, and friendly. To say he will be missed is putting it mildly.
Return of the Tatars
Skipper’s Post: This post is a long time coming since my friends from Tatarstan were here at the end of March, but times have been busy. Anyway, look at the truly amazing plate they gave me! I didn’t know that capybaras were so popular in Tatarstan. But of course we are; to know us is […]
