Hey, rabbit. Hey, rabbit, come here. How come I've never seen you jump? How come I've never seen a bunny jump? Sure, you hop around all the live-long day. How else would you get around with those big ol' hind legs and feets? But hopping and jumping aren't the same thing. I bet you can't jump. I bet you 100 carrots that you can't even jump. I dare you to. I Daily Squee dare you to jump.
Here's a new video to update us all on Drac's progress. Watch Drac eat his first solid food, and learn to fly. Get a hanky ready or a box of Kleenex, because you're about to cry, you're about to laugh, and you're about to rush out to the pet store to see if they carry bats.
A note from Bat World Sanctuary: We would like to get the message across that is is not a good idea to keep bats as pets. Many of the bats at our sanctuary are cast-aways from the exotic pet trade. Bats like Lil' Drac have a life-span of up to 20 years in the wild but rarely last a year when kept as a pet. They need large flight enclosures, dozens of roostmates and an enriched life in order to survive any length of time in captivity. Some of Lil' Drac's mother's roostmates were sent to the pet trade when the zoo closed. We took all the females from the zoo in order to keep the breeding population down in the pet trade.
Our comment about rushing out to the pet store was of course tongue-in-cheek. While we stand by our claim that Lil' Drac will make you want to keep a pet bat, by no means should you. Instead, please consider sponsoring a bat in need through Bat World, or even simply making a donation.
Did you know that Keyboard Cat's career is much older than the Internet? Oh yes, he's been around for a long time. His act has changed quite a bit over the years, though. In the early days, he wasn't a solo artist. But he had to break up the band because that mouse can't keep a beat and the lead singer, well, he was just creeping everybody out. Smart decision. We much prefer the 21st-century incarnation of Keyboard Cat. But watch this clip to see an old-timey version.
In contrast to what Oskar demonstrated earlier, it seems that if you want a pet who will help you trim your holiday tree, go bunny. (Or, at least, go B.B.)
When the fire alarm goes off in a public school and there was no fire drill scheduled, you know the principal must think, "Oh great, no I have to figure out which one of these bratty kids pulled the alarm." As it turns out in this case, however, it wasn't a bratty kid at all. It was a bratty squirrel. Well, I think it's obvious what happened here. That squirrel had a history test first period that it didn't study for, and it thought it could weasel its way out of it with this sneaky move. I bet he thought he was being sly as a fox. But somebody ratted him out.
