"Who can know what effect our smallest acts of kindness may have on others? Perhaps the most important contribution of Mother Teresa, who serves the most destitute and neglected, is that she instills in those who have been abandoned the realization that they too are loved." ~ Sant Darshan Singh Ji Maharaj ~ Panda Pig's Peace Sanctuary exists so that abandoned, neglected, sick, and dying guinea pigs may experience that they, too, are cherished and loved!

WHAT KIND OF PIG, YOU ASK?! AND WHY HAS HE STOPPED EATING SO SUDDENLY? WE HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS!
Note Bear's sudden, introspective demeanor: Any other guinea pig would be tearing into his fruit! But a HUBBLEpIG will stop -
EVEN DURING BREAKFAST! --- yes, even during breakfast,
To receive the newest transmissions from deep space, billions of light years ago, hinting which direction astonomical humans ought gaze to
find the ORIGINS OF THE UNIVERSE.
After which time, our HUBBLEpIG will resume munching on his
juicy fruit before napping cozily on his favorite, warm blanket.

MEET LOLA, QUEEN OF THE FOREST!
Dear readers,
from time to times we enjoy introducing you to new friends and Lola is definitely one! Just look at that face!
Mom met Lola and her dad and her dad's friend on her Walkabout and discovered that this precious Havanese puppy not only lives on a boat but loves to run so fast down the ramp before leaping into the air and onto the boat that her dad is seriously considering buying her a cape!
But, on this particular day she was ecstatic on terra firma, staking her claim with admirable aplomb. We salute Lola and her Dad! WE 3 GUINEA PIGS and mom unanimously wish you both Happy Sailing when you head north to Alaska this summer on your boat, Lola's cape flowing majestically in the tradewinds while orcas swim merrily by.

Dear Readers,
We love our Runabouts. We run, we popcorn, we scamper, we slide (on the kitchen floor if we run off the towels and pretend to be skating) and we play with all the boxes, toys, and hidden snacks mom puts out on the floor for us. When working as a volunteer at Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle she learned all about "enrichment" and we enjoy enrichment specific to guinea pigging!
Yoga we do not do.
Mom does yoga.
We watch mom do yoga.
We watch mom do yoga, relieved it is not something guinea pigs do.
This news story has done nothing to change our minds, and
if you have guinea pigs, we hope it does nothing to change yours.
If you have dogs, enjoy yoga, and are a crazy-person, we hope you
enjoy doga.
WE ARE NOT, NOR WILL WE EVER BE, POGIS!
PANDA PIG OUT!

YumYum has been squealing "NAMASTE!" at the top of his lungs
all day - so enjoyable, while Bear the Beaver Pig has been practicing
forward stretches to reach hay
stuck in high places.)

THE PERFECT DISCIPLE
"Mom, can you find out?"
"No problem, PandaPig."
Meet The Perfect Disciple: humble. quiet. unobtrusive. never seeking
attention. serves with loving devotion. open, affectionate, kind face.
dressed simply. not materialistic, content with pretty green ears and
hand-painted brown flowers, orange eyes always seeking to serve with
a gentle smile. horns like a giraffe, and tail hanging gently down
towards earth; yes, earthy and modest. Childlike and innocent.
With enough faith
to stand
perilously close to the edge of am's kitchen countertop
without an
ounce of fear. Wears a beautific expression of grace:
this perfect disciple!

VENERABLE CHIN-SUN KITTY
BEAR PREDICTS NO SUN ON SUNDAY
Yum-Yum woke up this morning, peeked out of his colorful, snuggly sleeping bag, asked Bear for the weather report,
discovered the sun might or might not make a surprise cameo appearance but a windstorm was definetely in the forecast,
and decided, "Why Bother?"
Indeed!
You stay tucked in, little fella, 'cause you're right where you belong until mom wakes up for breakfast.
And YumYum stayed right where he belonged until mom woke up for breakfast. (Our breakfast, of course!)
And, after her migraine, mom got a special surprise: time to visit her spiritual/art friend and neighbor, am,
and the Venerable Chin-Sun-Kitty! Who actually did find Sun!
HAPPY THEM. HAPPY US.
NOW WE WAIT FOR WIND.
PANDA PIG OUT!
PACIFIC NORTHWEST PALETTE
Same day. Same planet. My how a day can change the appearance of Reality through a camera's faithful lens!
Thanks, mom, for showing us what your Walkabouts look like. Because if it gets dark in here, you just turn on
the lights. Different outdoors, huh? We like being indoor guinea pigs but know mom likes being an outdoor girl.
Even if we move into town, we promise to pack your gear and camera, kick you out the door, and make sure the
Magic Lives On!
PANDA PIG OUT!
NORTH SHORE OF LAKE WHATCOM
THIS AND OTHER SIMILAR PHOTOS ARE ACTUALLY IN COLOR: PACIFIC NORTHWEST COLOR, THAT IS.
When mom headed out, she had the Sun predicted by Bear the Weather Pig. But when she headed back, the
weather changed and her color photos took on the color palette unique to the Pacific Northwest. Today Bear did
not predict sun. Accurate prediction, Bear. But, for those brief, shining hours yesterday, that bright thing did
dance in the sky and turn things green and people smiled again. It was glorious!

EXOTIC THAI RIDGEBACK DOG: WOW!
Yesterday, mom went Walkabout on the north shore trail along
Lake Whatcom and look who she ran into!
We have never even heard of Thai Ridgeback dogs before, and
this girl is still young and learning about America, and Bellinghamsters,
who do not keep their big, gigantic dogs on leashes while walking on trails specifically asking them to do so. For everybody's safety.
She was lovely but so many unleashed dogs rushed up and, excited by her exotic aroma, went beserk, that she really did not feel safe. And her mom had a hard time protecting her.
Please leash your dogs, dear dog owners. For everyone's sake! Thanks!
PANDA OUT!
