Panda On!
Bob T Panda
…as this Friday, when my Kickstarter project to visit the panda ranches of China, is now about 60% funded, in less than 3 days. OMG!!!!!! If you haven’t visited yet, get on down to Kickstarter headquarters here! I am so thankful for all your support, and for the photos shared by some of my fellow Panda-trekkers that decorate my project page.

Who could resist having lunch with a panda? (Actually, their table manners are terrible, but so are mine!)
But meanwhile, it is Fabulous Furry Friday and you know what that means…

…if I were a panda, yadda dah dah da- da- da- AAARGH! I can’t stop!!!!!

Part 1 of Bob and Mehitabel’s explanation…

What makes a panda run? Cuppycakes, of course!!!!

Babette and Bee, the Bear have a “discussion”

Oh, Bob, you didn’t really say that, did you?

Early fake news?

Mehitabel did NOT approve this cartoon.

Archie, is that you?

We KNEW that was you!

I was really afraid this was going to happen.
You can’t fire a icon.
And don’t forget to check out my Kickstarter campaign! Pinky misses me!
Panda On!

We are tired of gloom and doom. As is my practice, I am getting this post ready in advance, so while in real time, it is still election day, by the time you see this, it will all be over but the shouting. And the suing. Rev up your attorneys! It’s gonna be a bumpy ride! I don’t know about you, but I could use something way more cheerful to read today, so I looked in the archives to find some of the funniest, most light hearted ‘toons I had.

Pandas aren’t dopes!

Huzzah for the Cake Party!

Or how about some cuppycakes?

Visit the Panda Ranch!

What do you mean by “was?”

Bee-lieve!

Who says real life can’t be funny?
Well, That’s all for now! Stay tuned for more pandas and panda satire!
Be the Bear and have a Fabulous Furry Friday!

Note from the Panda in Chief: As I mentioned at the beginning of this post, it was assmbled before the election. As you may surmise, I am deeply distressed about the outcome of the election. Please take this group of lighthearted cartoons as a little respite from what ever anxiety, sadness, and fear you may now be feeling.
I don’t know how to process this news, or even how to go on, but I have been through bad times before, and this one is a doozy. Art is the way I process what I experience and feel. And so, the upcoming cartoons, with the exception of the next two (which were done before the election) may be…um…a little dark. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
I have to believe that we, as a nation will survive and maybe even thrive, even while I am not hopeful of that. Know that panda satire will prevail and will hopefully bring a bit of light into the darkness that surrounds us right now. Unless they arrest me. I guess that there is always that possibility.

Oh my! The suspense here at 31 Days of Pandas is getting too much to bear…get it? Too much to…oh, never mind. You knew I had a weird sense of humor already, so no complaining in the cheap seats.
Let’s get back to it’s a Wunderful Life, shall we?

Repeat after me, “It’s a story” ‘kay?

Everytime a bell rings, a panda gets a cuppycake.

Yay! The heartwarming schmoopy ending!
You didn’t think I was going to make you wait another day for the heartwarming schmoopy ending did you? what kind of bear do you think I am?
Don’t answer that!
And while you are doing your holiday shopping, why not add a Bee, the bear, mug to your collection! Yours for the asking (well, and your credit card) from Pandyland at CafePress!

and on the other side…
Be the Bear! and tune in for more pandy fun tomorrow and Saturday, with a brand new ‘toon on Sunday, starring…hmmmm could it be Pinky and Bubba? We’ll see!
Bob T. Panda
Yes, it’s a wonderful Wu, and a Wun-derful Life! Huzzah! We are back with the next episodes for your panda satire watching enjoyment.
Sit back and enjoy the show!

You won’t like this, Mr Wu!

Those darn cats!
Oh this is so traumatic! I hate to upset the wu self, but a writer has gotta do what a writer’s gotta do. No one ever said it would be pretty.
Meanwhile, you could head over to Pandyland at Cafe Press and show your support for the Wu-self this holiday season!

…and on the other side…
Be the Bear!
Bob T. Panda
We’re back with the next episodes of It’s a Wun-derful Life, starring Mr. Wu, Bee (the Bear) and other pandas besides!

Bee the bear tells it like it is

What part of “you don’t exist” didn’t you get?
Where IS Mr. Wu’s mom? It’s getting very existential around here!
Tune in tomorrow for the next episode!
Be the Bear!
Bob T. Panda
We are back with another holiday classic, It’s a Wun-derful Life! Huzzah! Mr Wu is given the gift of seeing what the world would be like if he had never been born. But why are we standing around here talking?

Thank goodness Bee the Bear still has her magical wand from the last adventure.

Wu is a good bear at heart….
Oh the suspense is killing me! What is going to happen next?
Be the Bear!
Bob T. Panda
PS: Several people commented that they wished the PandyClaws and his sleigh (and a tiny Pinky Panda) image was on a coffee mug. Well, guess what! Now it is!
Here we are at Day 5 of 31 days of Pandas. Is this getting you in the holiday spirit yet? Tomorrow we will have a brand new ‘toon for your 31 Days of Pandas enjoyment. For now, get your popcorn and cuppycakes, sit back and enjoy this next installment of…

Who would have thought cuppycakes could be enchanted?

Stay tuned later this month for the outtakes and blooper reel!

Good witch Bee, the Bear, to the rescue!
Well hate to leave you at the edge of your seats and all, but….tune in tomorrow for a brand new ‘toon. Could it be starring our newest american panda? tune in and see!
Be the Bear,
Bob T. Panda
Oh boy! Here we are at day 3 of 31 Days of Pandas! Are you as excited as I am?
On with our encore presentation of The Wizard of Wu…

Don’t I know you from somewhere?

Mehitabel would like to register her protest about given the least sympathetic role in this adventure.

Okay, now it’s getting exciting! Scary parts dead ahead!
Pandas and kitties and cuppycakes, oh my!
Are you having fun yet? Tune in tomorrow for more from the Wizard of Wu!
Be the Bear,
Bob T Panda
Well, this may be a first for The Panda Chronicles.
You know how people who are born on holidays like Christmas or 4th of July always complain that no one ever really celebrates their birthday because..um…MAJOR HOLIDAY!!!!!DUH!!!!
So, think about what it means to be born on what is probably the most infamous day in recent American history (and I don’t mean the day that the Supremes appointed George W. President) Yeah, I am talking about the ultimate conversation stopper. What if your birthday is on September 11th? Let me put that another way, in case you missed the reference.
Well, that just happens to be the case for one of The Institute for Contemporary Panda Satire’s most faithful followers, a young woman from my home town of Phillie PA. so in honor of your birthday, we bring you….


All salute the sacred cuppycake!

Thanks again to Henry Nicholls for alerting me to this story

Legalize cake today! Prevent illicit cuppycake activities.

Escape! Come with me, little cake, so we can be alone together.

Bee-lieve!

One panda’s disaster is another panda’s delight!

Mini Bob Contemplates some cuppycakes from the famous London Bakery, Peggy Porschen Cakes
Well, apparently, much to my surprise, I could go on and on with cartoons of pandas and cakes, but I won’t!
Happy birthday, once again Cami….be sure to…um…have some cake. How did I know about this? Let’s just say that small pandas have big mouths. I’m looking at YOU, Emperor Pew! ( see article: When good pandas go bad!) Thanks for alerting me to the news that there is something to celebrate about 9/11. That Bamboo Psychic network is really something!
Be the Bear!
