At Least Someone’s Having a Goodyear

Shout-out to Shannon for showing the tip jar some love, thank you! Moving on, we haven’t seen an elephant in a while, so let’s check in on this happy juvenile joyfully throwing a truck tire around — until the other tires gang up on her. You might say they got… tired.

    You can almost hear her giggling.

      She is just so adorably happy!

      I could hear her chirping, and that was beyond cute.

        I didn’t have the sound up loud enough before. Just watched again. I think she IS giggling! 🙂

          I just added the “Speakers UP!” tag to the post so that maybe other readers won’t miss out. (Yes, I heard the chirping, too!)

            I just had the volume down because I was watching on my tablet at work and I was too lazy to plug in my headphones.

    I’m loving how she’s swinging around her trunk. Can almost hear the music, “I’m swinging it like I just don’t care, just don’t care, ooh.”

    Adorable young lellypant. Was she making those cute chirping-type sounds ?

    I guess the tires had enough of being tread on at the end.

    • allein ? December 15, 2016 / 3:51 pm

      That was a wheely bad pun.

      • Starfish December 15, 2016 / 4:12 pm

        I guess I did kinda blow it. Tire puns are hard, there’s only so many in rotation. But when you finally get a grip on one, it really inflates your mood.

          You’re making my pressure go up…

          Starfish, you really know where the rubber hits the road.

          • Phred's Mom December 15, 2016 / 5:04 pm

            ?

          • Starfish December 15, 2016 / 5:26 pm

            Let’s just say I’ve got a few of these under my belt. 😛 I’ll have to rack my brain to come up with any more, so I’ll stop now.

          • Laura December 15, 2016 / 5:30 pm

            Yup, Starfish, you’re treading on thin ice. 🙂

    • Gigi the cat lady December 15, 2016 / 5:23 pm

      I think most of those puns fell flat ?

    I got so scared when she got tangled in the tire! But mum and keeper were standing by, and she figured it out. She’s so smart.

    Such a lovely heffalump, and such a sweet video. Yay!

    Thank you again to everyone who sent (or even just thought) support for Ricky and me when I wrote about Ricky’s heart disease. So far he seems to be doing pretty well on his new meds, and I am slowly coming to grips with it all. I think it hit me harder than it did him! But we are settling into our new routine, and right now he is happily snoring away. 🙂

      One day at a time, Ricky’s Mom, take it one day at a time and enjoy your sweet fur baby!

      As for the video, just another reason to lover elephants, as if we needed another reason!

    • Starfish December 15, 2016 / 9:42 pm

      Happy to hear that you and Ricky are both feeling better.

      • Murray C. December 15, 2016 / 10:46 pm

        Same here, Ricky’s Mom – I hope he continues along happily . I know you’ll give him heaps o’ love and warming comfort for the rest of his days – and may they be long!

    • Smartypants December 16, 2016 / 2:24 am

      So glad to hear it, Ricky’s Mom!

    What a silly little heffalump!
