Poodle Guitarist Only Plays Telecasters
In an interview with Rolling Stone Magazine, the manager of legendary guitarist Maru the White Poodle says the pup is loyal to Fender, and only plays Telecasters these days.
“He has quite a collection, many different colors and tone variations,” Gil Foreman tells Rolling Stone. “He likes to match his guitar and his outfit on stage. It’s an instrument and a fashion accessory.”
Maru has put his signature Tele twang on the albums and concerts of greats, including Bob Dylan, Merle Haggard and more recently, The Wiggles.

It’s a little known fact about cloud leopards that each one has a tickle spot – an area on their body that when tickled can completely incapacitate the giant cat. In the video above, representatives from the Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium in Tacoma, WA demonstrate on a cub this non-lethal and completely humane way to absolutely delight these majestic beasts.
Cockatiel Unsuccessfully Wears Makeup for First Time
Azizu, a cockatiel from Britain’s West End, has been trying to find a mate for 6 months. She’s tried everything: single’s bars, meetups, blind dates, online dating – nothing has worked. That’s when a friend suggested recently that maybe her appearance could use an upgrade. So Azizu went out last weekend wearing makeup for the first time in her life.
According to friends, however, the new look didn’t go over so well with the other birds. Perhaps it was the Pikachu-esque amount of blush or perhaps it just wasn’t her night. Whatever the reason, Azizu struck out big time.
[Ed. note: Relax, that’s not actually makeup, it’s the birds natural coloring plus an Instagram filter.]
