STEPHEN COLBERT MAKES U.S. OLYMPIC TEAM!
GOOD EVENING FROM CAVY OLYMPICS COVERAGE COMING DIRECTLY FROM MY CAGE NEAR VANCOUVER,B.C. in another country
Who are we? you ask.
We are: CAVIES FOR COLBERT!
Mom was a short-track speedskater once, actually a short-track slow skater, but she tried. Honest. Her coach could never think of a nice thing to say, so he told Mom that she was "an elegant skater" which she always thought was really reserved for figure skaters and she was definitely not figure skating...so she wondered. And skated. Very, very slowly.
During the Salt Lake Olympics she was inspired to design her own speedskating racing skinsuit and she did and someone made it for her.
But it is turquoise because that is her favorite color. It did not look very sporty, but then, she wasn't very fast.
Which brings us to NOW. Mom is too sick to skate but Stephen Colbert saved the U.S. Speedskating Team and in this episode races long track superstar Shani Davis for the last spot on the team after Shani called Stephen "a jerk" and mom said none of us can call each other that word. She also said I can't tease Bear for being constipated.
So, in this link, Stephen Colbert races Shani Davis (the fastest speedskater in the world) and you can see for yourself that he should have raced Mom instead. She said Bear is not constipated but that older guinea pigs can get impacted, which is why she had me neutered, but since we just adopted Bear on Christmas Eve and he's already five we will cope somehow.
In the meantime, we are counting down every day until we go to the Olym- WHAT?
We aren't GOING? Mom said we'll have to watch it on the laptop because the border will take so long for humans we don't know how they would do a full body scan on Bear since he's constipated, I mean "impacted" and they might not want to let him poo in Canada, even at the Olympics. That does not sound fair but we are all rescues and used to life not always being fair. We believe in love and affection no matter what, and cheering for our superSkaters, and for Stephen Colbert, new assistant psychologist for the US Speedskating Team! Go Shani! Go Stephen! And Bear, please go on a regular basis so Mom doesn't have to do "helpful" things to make it easier.
No one ever wants to discuss these things. That's why I have a blog of my own. GO TEAM! GO BEAR!

Animals Need Rescuing in Haiti, too.
When I worry, my hair looks like Mom's. She said people are good and will help the guinea pigs and all the animals in Haiti. The good people, like at Best Friends Animal Society are getting ready and waiting to go! Please send love and prayers to every animal in need of rescue so that we will have a world where no one is forgotten, no matter how large or how small, whether furry, feathered, scaley, slimy, swimmy, or maybe no one has ever even discovered some of our species, like in the rainforests! We all need love and love you, each in our own special way. Some of us might look scary (like me on a "bad hair" day) but we have beautiful souls inside.Please Help Animals in Haiti
Dear Readers, Mom is helping me write this. I am thinking there must be guinea pigs and lots of other animals in Haiti waiting to be rescued. Best Friends Animal Society is organizing rescue as soon as possible. There is need for volunteers and donations. There is a backlog of aid waiting to enter the country but they are preparing. I feel very sad for all those suffering and ask you, dear reader, to consider what you can do to help. A prayer is always a good start...
