Well, we are really newsworthy animals and at least it provides a brig

Well, looks like my little brother Dobby is going for the World’s Second Most Famous Capybara award. In case you are wondering, which you should NOT be, I have the World’s Most Famous Capybara award securely in my court. Dobby was on CuteOverload today and I have to admit, he is just about too cute
