An Unlikely Friendship

PandaPig, our very first rescue, became totally best friends with Chai, our Bengal Cat...they snuggled, played, and grew so close that one summer when Chai became near-deathly ill (which he always did whenever anyone got a bonus at work or some "spare change") Panda became so worried he would often approach Chai to cheer him up and make him better, gazing into his eyes, taking his widdle nose and snuggling Chai...of course it took all of our "spare change" and ginormous vet bills to "medically" fix him, but we know Panda and his love were always the REAL cure! Chai was a rescue because he was too wild for his first owner. He was bred too closely to a wild Asian leopard cat..."pet-quality" Bengals need to be bred at least four generations (Hence the "C4" designation) from the Asian leopard cat, but somebuddy decided Pretty bested the animals' best interests...
THUS:
A stunning litter of C2's were bred and sold...and we unwittingly became the lucky recipients of, basically, a wild animal capable of killing us in our sleep (hence the daily medication!) but who has devotedly rescued all kinds of animals, nurturing each as if it was his own. Panda was not his first guinea pig rescue, but Chai also had dog friends and even wild fawn and deer friends we used to visit at dusk back when we still lived at the wildlife sanctuary. Spindly-legged, spotted, spring fawns approached him with such wide-eyed curiosity Chai actually rolled over on his back and wiggled, a sign of submission so they would feel safe enough to approach: every late spring and summer afternoon, Chai donned his black leather harness & leash before walking out to wait for the doe and her fawns. Then he would return home, resplendent in his Fragrance of Wildness, telling PandaPig what it's like to be Chai: an unlikely friendship, indeed!

P.S. Chai was not named after tea. In one of the far eastern Asian countries, Chai means
Tiger. Just can't remember what language. His face and long legs bore wild tiger stripes
while the rest of  his unusually soft "pelt" glittered gold, copper, and glowed like diamonds
in the sun. Bengals with these characteristics are considered to have "glitter coats" aptly named!
He now lives in Seattle with his girlfriend, a spunky tortie rescue Dominatrix named Sami.

Another WONDERFUL Unlikely Friendship!

Richard Can't Stop Laughing. Make Him!

Dear Sympathizers,

Thank you for all of the love and support you have shown us guinea pigs as we endure "The Bollywood Dance Debacle."
It hasn't been easy for any of us. Of course you understand.
Mom now wants to know who spilled it to Richard.
Moreover, how the heck we even found him in his "undisclosed location." Even she doesn't know where he is and Brian Williams isn't returning her calls, texts, emails, Skypes, iPhone, iPad, i GiveUP, and well, she's getting worried.

And she should! Not about Richard, he's fine. In fact, he's havin' a good laugh here with our buddy Stephen Colbert about the role of journalists in a post-modern society that reveres sound bites over hard-hitting, deep, investigative news journalism! Or maybe they were talking about ta-ta's, you never really know with those two. One thing's for sure...here, they're getting a big kick outta mom's new "Professional Dance" career in Mumbai, formerly known as Bombay, film capital of the far east, hence "Bollywood." Beats "MumbaiWood" don'tcha think?
Of course. Whew, please keep the love flowing our way and we'll keep you up to date on Richard and Stephen's pre-paid "Intervention." Stephen has speedskates; that's all we know for now.

Ciao,
YumYum

WHATEVAH COULD WE EVEN SAY?

Mom asks if she doesn't look prettier now? Happier now? Jauntier now? Elegant now?
Even feminine NOW?
...to wit: "Ain't I just the bee's knees NOW, piggies?!"

help.us.help.her.
(she the one on the right...
but, uh, have you ever SEEN mom before?
we didn't THINK SO)

***couldn't talk her outta it***

BollyWHAT?

Dear Friends. We haz had it now!
Mom went to the Post Office and was completely surprised to find a package waiting for her.
A package containing something that can only bode badly for we wee piggies and our Peace of Mind.
She pulled it out, and surprised, exclaimed, "Uh-Oh, I guess I pressed SEND!"
She promises us she did not remember.
But we told you about this a few posts back.
She had already forgotten what we have been dreading...
The "Learn to Bollywood" Fitness and Dance Instructional Video video with Pallavi, Volume ONE (there's MORE?)
"DHOOM TAANA"

We doesn't know what "Dhoom Taana" means in Hindi, but mom don't know what "Doomed Chana" means in
GuineaPigSpeak, either...

Nothing good can come from this. Nuttin'!
Help us, won't you? Please, she got (muffin-top) and what she gonna wear? Like, wrap a sheet 'round h'self and ---
stop the madness. Before it too late.
Yours,
Taj Mahal

OPEN LETTER TO CALVIN...

Dear Calvin,

You recently "endured" your first nail trim and our hearts go out to you, they really do!
Can you press on the photo to see how short my own toenails are? All I'm gonna say is
they are the reason mom had a styptic pencil in the house in the first place. 'Nuff said!

But ain't i pretty? You do get used to your manis and pedis and start to like them once
you realize your toes don't get all twisted up like they once did in a former life, before
coming here...they won't get all twisty and - in some cases - even grow back around into
the bottom of your foot! Bear's toes were so deformed by the time he came here in 2009,
we think? Twisted...

So, you can relax and breathe easier knowing...OH, WHO ARE WE KIDDING? SHE
GONNA GET THAT LAST TOENAIL BUT WE'LL MAKE SURE THE STYPTIC PENCIL
ALREADY MOIST AND WAITING: GOOD LUCK, WEE LAD! YOU GONNA NEEDS IT!

love,
MacNutPie
