It’s the Panda Birthday Season!

There's no season like the birthday season!

The narrator is stepping in here to explain a little bit about the concept of “the birthday season”. I invented the season in order to refute the idea  that your birthday should only comprise ONE actual day. Huh! As if that gives enough scope to celebrating, not to mention indulging, all your birthday whims and fantasies. And more importantly, opportunities for cake!

So for pandas everywhere, Happy Birthday Season!

be the bear!

The UnBEARable Panda-ness of Being

Dancing in the moonlight with Pandas

Dancing the "red dot" dance in the moonlight with Pandas!

OK, this has gone far enough! It’s bad enough that there are pandas all over the house and all over the bed and I just don’t want to think about all the other places that those rotten pandas have insinuated themselves.  It’s getting so that a cat can’t relax in her own house anymore.

In case you are wondering, I, Mehitabel, princess of the universe, have taken control of the keyboard from that insidious, adorable menace, Bob T. Panda.  I am currently locked in the bathroom with the laptop, so that I can counteract all the  panda propaganda that has been passing for intellectual discourse around here, lately.  Just what, I ask you is a cat to do?  You tell me.

“Panda On,” my foot!  Felines Forever!

Pandas are a popping out all over

We are SO excited to report that Baby Panda season has begun. I don’t know why all pandas seem to give birth from the end of July through the end of September, but that’s the Way of the Panda. predictable, yet mysterious. Kind of makes you want to have a panda for your very own, doesn’t it?

Speaking of The Way of the Panda,  the book of that name by noted F.O.P.* Henry Nicholls comes out at the end of september. Order Your copy now from Amazon.com ( or your favorite local bookseller).  Meanwhile, we wait with baited breath for the next announcement to come from Panda News (really!) of more furry little bundles of joy!

till then,

Be the Bear!

Cloning Pandas: Have they no Shame?

F.O.P. (Friend of Pandas) Henry Nicholls recently revealed that he had to drop a section in his upcoming book, The Way of the Panda, about cloning.  We at Bob the Panda, INC. are sorry to hear that, as we think that panda cloning is already going on, as evidenced by the above photograph.   We sincerely hope that panda proliferation does not become a problem in the future.

He also revealed in a recent post that New Zealand is attempting to trade Kiwis for Pandas. As if!!!!!!!!  I mean, just on a per pound ratio, pandas are worth FAR more than Kiwis!  Reminds me of the old days when they used hand out pandas like party favors at a drunken weekend in the country.  “Great to see you, old boy. Oh, and take this panda as a lovely parting gift, don’t ‘cha know?”

Panda On!

It all seemed black and white to me!

 

Pandas, just like everyone else, are feeling the economic pinch these days.  I mean, who has the spare change to rent a panda for a million or so smackaroos per panda per year? Gone are those golden days when China handed pandas out like party favors at a fraternity party.  Some pandas don’t mind doing the zoo-travel thing, but those personal appearances can be tiring and the beds are not always as comforable as your home den.

So whats a panda, who wants to suppliment his income to do these days? National Panda Radio to the rescue!

Panda On !
