SmartPig: Printer Error Code Poof




Poof: SmartPig or LolPig?

Poof was trying to set up one of those all-in-one printer/scanner/fax machines earlier. However, she got a little sidetracked investigating all the different buttons. As she reported back, the humans will make noises of protest if you nibble on them. Whoever would have guessed that they are chewable? Needless to say, she ended up leaving the job to the humans.

Anyways, whee also wanted to bring your attention to her first pigture. Many people have heard of LolCats. Well, whee personally think that we piggies are just as cute as (if not more so) than cats, so why shouldn't we also be represented? That's why we came up with LolPigs, featuring guinea pigs!

So piggy friends and fans, what do you think? Do you enjoy chewing rubber buttons like Poof and Belka do? Does the world need LolPigs? Or should whee leave this to the cats?

Herd Film Strips


Whee heard our humans talking about something called 35mm film, and decided to investigate for ourselves. Nowadays everything is digitalized, but vintage has its charm too... click on the film strips for closeups!

Coppy's Coca-Cola advertisement

Getting her fur styled in hair and makeup

Since Coppy is such an internationally well known piggy model, she was called upon to star in a Russian advertisement for Coca-Cola. The modeling campaign went off without a hitch, until the talent discovered that Coca-Cola is not a suitable refreshment for piggies to consume...


Drink Coca-Cola (in Russian)

"Okay, I'm ready for my closeup shots now!"

"What do you MEAN, Coca-Cola is not a healthy natural vegetable based juice?!!"

"That's it! I quit!"

Nevertheless, this revelation did not stop our male slave from consuming endless additional quantities of Coca-Cola.

Piggy Songs: Volume I

Everybody knows that humans have hit songs. But not as many are aware that whee guinea piggies have our own songs too! Can you guess the human version of this one?


Can You Hear the Food Tonight

Can you hear the food tonight?
The peace the feeding brings
The herd, for once, in perfect harmony
With all their green veggies

Veggie points if you guess correctly! Who needs those icky human brownies anyways? Blegh.
