Wing wing! Wing wing! It’s for you!

   

David Rosenberg’s guinea peeg Noodle is just one of the stars. We’ve greenlit it for 43 more episodes.

One RIngy dingy, Two ringy dingys

Hullo is this the party to whom I am speaking….

3 Annie 02.14.08 at 6:23 am

OMG That is great…. oh wait I think I hear my sheep ringing.

Ring ring ring… Man picks up baby Chikon… hello..

caller: hey do you have prince albert in a can?

Man: yes
Caller: you better let him out.

6 Sarah K 02.14.08 at 6:41 am

DID THE WHALE CRUSH SCOTT??!!?!?!

7 bdwilcox 02.14.08 at 6:53 am

My pet is an amoeba; I guess you could call it a “cell” phone.

8 redbone 02.14.08 at 6:54 am

That pit bull looked entirely too delighted to be a telephone. XD

9 Trisha 02.14.08 at 6:57 am

The g.pig’s face is the best. Would have liked to see a hedgie phone

10 Subhangi 02.14.08 at 7:03 am

SQUEEEEEEEEEE!!! I love this!

11 Lizzy 02.14.08 at 7:17 am

Thank you, Meg. Seriously thank you. I’m not going to share the details but I’ve had some really dark, scary thoughts going on tonight and this really helped. I’m going to go hold my guinea-phone and cry for a while.

12 Edward 02.14.08 at 7:20 am

Lizzie, I know about dark scary thoughts. And a piggie and a cry will make it better. Not perfect, but better.

13 colleen 02.14.08 at 7:23 am

I wanna play phone with my Boxer Sammy.

14 Annie 02.14.08 at 7:25 am

Lizzy Hugs.. hope you feel better soon

15 Zee 02.14.08 at 7:26 am

OMG! Yes, I thought the red rooster phone *might* be trickier. You’d tink it’d be willing to nap in the hammock w/its dude.

I never thought maggots (whatever that icky bug is) were so hi-tech.

16 Josh 02.14.08 at 7:31 am

I thought that was Patton Oswald for a second there.

17 Martha in Washington 02.14.08 at 7:36 am

I wanna phone like Scott’s!! ‘Cept I don’t swim…hmmm.

18 Juniper Jupiter 02.14.08 at 7:43 am

Zee, those were mealworms!! Used to feed them to my iguanas! My buddy boy Nermal cat used to love them, too. But then we found out the lizards were vegetarian, we didn’t need to buy them anymore…

Great video!!

19 Kar 02.14.08 at 7:48 am

That maggot phone scares me. Seriously.

That chicken phone is great. Would really stop you from over-extending your minutes, wouldn’t it?

20 susan 02.14.08 at 7:54 am

omg, i sooooo want a turtle phone!! this has made my day.

p.s. sending a big hug to lizzy :) dark thoughts are the pits :(

21 Jennie 02.14.08 at 7:59 am

Sound scared mon Kittehs! I laffed muchly. Lizzie, if you need an ear or a friend, let me know. I’m a depressed older lady and can understand and listen without judgement….

22 fish eye no miko 02.14.08 at 8:23 am

Oh god, yes!
Can I have a rattie phone?

23 SixFootJen 02.14.08 at 8:30 am

I will definitely NOT be getting a RoosterPhone! Way too much work.

24 Monkey 02.14.08 at 8:46 am

bdwilcox : Win!

25 Hon Glad 02.14.08 at 9:08 am

I must try my cat phone tonight.

26 Lawrence 02.14.08 at 9:32 am

Wait… no Bun phones? I wanna bun phone.

27 Gail 02.14.08 at 10:14 am

@lizzy: Sending {hugs} and happier thoughts your way!! Thank God (or whoever) for pets—mine have kept me going through many “dark nights of the soul”. (And, you have friends out here in CO-land!)

I was thinking the Rooster phone might be good for those of us (me, in particular!) who need to increase our exercise!!

28 Sug 02.14.08 at 10:15 am

My cat phone’s battery lasts only half a day. And the voice is a bit muffled.

29 Barbara 02.14.08 at 10:44 am

OH MY GOD. I have never laughed this hard at a youtube video in my life, AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

The mealworm just blew my mind.

HAHAHA

30 StormCat 02.14.08 at 11:02 am

OMG!!! What smart people to come up with this idea!!!

Lizzy, I totally understand about dark thoughts… In the last 4 months: I totaled my motorcycle (but wasn’t seriously injured), my son attempted to commit suicide, and is now being thrown out of the military, and went to divorce court to finalize my divorce from a 21 year marriage… But coming here every day helped… Seriously… Hang in there, and keep visiting this wacky group with it’s own language!!!

Thanks Megs for creating this site!!!!

Now back to our regularly scheduled craziness! How do *I* get a Shamu phone????

31 DLR 02.14.08 at 11:27 am

ROFL! Me like, me like very much, except that wiggly wormy thing!

32 Keith Handy 02.14.08 at 11:55 am

Re: bdwilcox’s comment (way way up near the top)…

Rim.

Shot.

(Sarcastic rim shot. Um, sort of like the sarcastic hand clap.)

;)

33 bookmonstercats 02.14.08 at 12:39 pm

@bdwilcox, so funny. This is one of the best vidoes I’ve seen for ages. My GPs are looking nervous now every time the phone rings…. I thought the mealworm episode was very funny and even forgive his faux English accent (was it?)

34 Nancy 02.14.08 at 12:40 pm

That’s somehow disturbing. LOL!

35 Ali 02.14.08 at 12:55 pm

That was a terrible video. Not even funny. And def not fun for the chicken or the worm. The problem with animals in entertainment – even low budget stupid entertainment, is that they rarely have any fun.

36 Michele 02.14.08 at 12:59 pm

I can have a whale phone? I have a German Shep and a Aussie Shep phone now. I think I need another one…for emergencies…yea, emargencies…

37 metsakins 02.14.08 at 1:09 pm

((Hugs)) to Lizzy. We’re all here for you. Believe you me, a large portion of us are medicating with CO. It’s a lot cheaper than the ‘zac.

I think this video is goin’ to join the ranks of cat conversation and it’s Caturday morning. Pure genius!

38 Beth 02.14.08 at 1:11 pm

I enjoy the high-tech mealworm earpiece, but I feel that I would choose an iBun. The nose wiggles greatly reduce static.

bdwilcox: Baaaaaaahahahahahahahahahah!!!

39 Beth 02.14.08 at 1:12 pm

PS- Meg, can you bleen your own website? I didn’t even know that, fah realz.

40 Vicki 02.14.08 at 1:38 pm

Have you guys noticed how cell phones have been shrinking lately? I mean, it was just a few years ago that the smallest phone you could get was a turtle. Now, I’m seeing all sorts of hip kids carrying around hamsters and mice. Sooo cool. And me, stuck with my fricking ginormous yorkie-phone. :P

41 Cat 02.14.08 at 1:47 pm

I like the turtle phone- he would do well in my purse during the day!

The chicken phone might be inconvenient, but think of the cardio-vascular health benefits!

I think the hedgie phone would be more anti-theft than useable.

42 dwine 02.14.08 at 1:52 pm

…actually its not that smart because its STOLEN!!!

*pauses for effect*

i think it was in a british comedy called last of the summer’s wine (or it may have been a different one) which involved a ‘puppy phone’

43 Ruth 02.14.08 at 1:53 pm

Hanging up by bopping the dog’s nose just completely put me over. This was great!

44 Jorden 02.14.08 at 2:05 pm

A big hug to lizzy.

45 arielle 02.14.08 at 2:21 pm

tries to dial on old, deaf dog…who promptly rolls over for belleh rubs…so i have to lie on the floor to use the phone…hello? hello….gets kicks in the head by reflex back leg…

46 Ann 02.14.08 at 2:24 pm

The guinea pig phone is the BEST part. Omg.

*wheet*
~(OoO)~

47 Heather 02.14.08 at 2:48 pm

Ahhhh, that freaky little worm bluetooth was the best. Oh and the pig’s legs all waving around in the air was pretty good too!

48 Pheas 02.14.08 at 2:54 pm

Chickon and mealworm aren’t bad when compared to…

RING RING RING RING
RING RING RING RING
Piranha Phone!

49 Sarah K 02.14.08 at 3:05 pm

Lizzy,

BE STRONG! I’m really glad that this video helped you last night. I hope that today is better for you. Know that you’re not alone. Know that whatever it is, it will get better. You just have to keep on fighting and pushing through. Know that it’s okay to cry. I hope your guinea pig gave you lots of love last night. I’m sending you a big, big hug right now!!
Love,
Sarah

50 Babs 02.14.08 at 3:20 pm

Meg: Naughty! Theo gonna git you!

bdwilcox: Heh-heh. Nice.

Good thing no one ever calls me – my cats don’t like my face getting too close to theirs.

Meanwhile, that bluetooth worm has put me off my brekky. Blergh.

51 Joe 02.14.08 at 3:29 pm

Please tell me this series will be a new daily feature on Cute Overload.

52 mandykw 02.14.08 at 3:42 pm

HAHA! This video is so redonk. It totally made my day

53 Fegli 02.14.08 at 4:41 pm

That’s the greatest thing ever! When the guy got out the guinea pig phone I thought I was going to pee myself! And the mealworm bluetooth! Oh, and lol at: *picks up pet* “that’s not me…”

The chicken phone must be very annoying. Love buddy falling out of his hammock.

54 Juno 02.14.08 at 4:47 pm

I tried this with my pet earwig. It didn’t end well.

55 jen 02.14.08 at 4:51 pm

meg – i love your bleenfest.

this is so cute. the guinea pig cracked me up the most.

56 Jason J Brunet 02.14.08 at 4:56 pm

Orcas don’t make sounds like that!!!!

And FTR, the kayaker survived.

57 debg 02.14.08 at 4:59 pm

So was the bluetooth the original earworm or what?

58 A thinker 02.14.08 at 5:24 pm

Dat ees…beezarre. But eenterestingk.

59 A thinker 02.14.08 at 5:36 pm

Also, bdwilcox: eeeeexxcellent.

Ali: how can you tell if a worm is having fun? (that sounds like it should be the setup for a bad joke)

60 megusmaximus 02.14.08 at 5:38 pm

Redbone, I thought the same thing about the pit bull looking very happy to be a phone! And Ruth, I died at the boop-nose-hang-up too.

All I could think was that if I tried to do that with our foster pit bull, it would be a very soggy phone call because if you get your face within a two foot radius of his, he kisses you like crazy. And if you “boop” his nose, he soaks your hand with kisses.

61 Alex 02.14.08 at 5:44 pm

Whale phone isn’t that far off, seeing as how close Scott is to the water.

62 alliecatt 02.14.08 at 6:13 pm

i love this video! Can you imagine the roaming charges if you had a llama phone?

63 Maimes 02.14.08 at 6:58 pm

the guinea pig actually killed me that was hilarious
i was expecting kitties and puppies the whole time and then it was like adorable lump of a guinea ahahha SO funny

64 CoffeeCup 02.14.08 at 7:03 pm

Hahahahaha, that’s awesome. But really, no Bun phone? A Bun phone would’ve propelled it to a perfect 10. Instead, 8. Sigh.

65 ollka 02.14.08 at 7:41 pm

I love the way she pokes the Boxer-dog-phone:))

66 annoyed. 02.14.08 at 7:48 pm

I’m annoyed. you guys actually found this interesting and funny.

sigh.

67 annoyed. 02.14.08 at 7:50 pm

“Please tell me this series will be a new daily feature on Cute Overload.”

No. For the love of God, no.

68 Sprock 02.14.08 at 7:52 pm

I just taught my dog-phone some new tricks so I can have roll-over minutes.

69 Juniper Jupiter 02.14.08 at 8:02 pm

**Groan**Sprock, that was BAD!!! No biscuit for you!!!

Okay, I lol’d!!

70 Noelle 02.14.08 at 8:12 pm

OMG! This was too funny for words! I nearly fell out of my chair! Must go home and try lab-phone tonight. Could use Canary-phone but I think I’d get pecked to death before I could even finish dialing.

Lizzy…big hug! I hope you’re feeling better today. Hang in there! We care!

71 CoffeeCup 02.14.08 at 9:12 pm

Why are people peeved by this video? Didn’t like it? That’s okay, but why can’t you just ignore it?

72 Barbara 02.14.08 at 10:13 pm

I am STILL laughing at this video and I watched it before 7 a.m. this morning.

Anyone who nuffs this is weird and humorless.

Also, I believe the mealworm was fine. I say this because I’ve fed many a mealworm to bearded dragon lizards, and it didn’t look smushed at all to me.

73 Annabel 02.14.08 at 10:50 pm

L to the O to the L bebeh!
I loved the yuppie’s hands free ani-phone!
The guinea pig cracked me up. Just imagining sitting at my desk picking it up to answer so profashionally lol.
Well done again CO … u r the best site evar!

74 Courtney 02.14.08 at 11:13 pm

Best. video. EVER.

Oh, hang on, my gerbil-phone is ringing…

75 janelle 02.15.08 at 1:09 am

I LOVE the ‘wing wing, wing wing’ caption with this…. and this video!!

76 H 02.15.08 at 1:15 am

I love it! And LOL at Meg bleening her own post.

77 Saraously 02.15.08 at 1:54 am

You know, as much as I love the pitbull nose bop, or the little guinea pig tush (I can only imagine his phone cradle is even cuter. Like a little bed full or carrots or something), what really gets me is the killer whale. You can just imagine he wants to be as cute as everyone else.
“I’m helping!” ::squish:: “Praise me!” :D
BTW, the killer whale/kayak clip was faked for a commerical. No harm, no foul, just in case anyone wanted to nuff on that.

79 berthaslave 02.15.08 at 2:49 am

Back in the day, I had one of those phones where you listened through the kitteh but you talked into the belly of the duck.

And my grandpappy use to send wireless telegrams via carrier pigeon.

80 Annie J 02.15.08 at 3:18 am

Haha, great! Guess I won’t ever be getting calls – I’ve got a fishie!

81 Quincy 02.15.08 at 3:40 am

Wha? They totally stole my cell phone to do that video! The chicken ring tone is the ring tone I have sent for my boyfriend! I think it’s a sign.

82 Fangwulf 02.15.08 at 4:03 am

Eee! Russian tortoise-phone!

83 Erica 02.15.08 at 5:31 am

I think the next time I go in to upgrade my cell phone service, I’ll ask for an iPoodle.

84 Lizzy 02.15.08 at 6:25 am

Thank you for all the support, everybody. I’m doing a little better today, and hopefully spending some time with my favourite fuzzy ‘phones’ at the zoo tomorrow will help more. I wants a ferret phone!

85 Kimski 02.15.08 at 7:09 am

There’s a Koala in the tree outside my window ringing! :P

86 Kimski 02.15.08 at 7:13 am

Also big hugs for Lizzie. I’d call you on something furry if I could hon. A lot of us have been there it seems.

OOXX
Kim.

87 Kimski 02.15.08 at 7:16 am

That rooster phone was the funniest. I might get one for weight loss porpoises.

88 Kimski 02.15.08 at 7:30 am

How about a poisonous spider phone…..or a Tasmanian Devil phone. I am so not answering those calls. These models will be discontinued before long. Those Tasmanian Devils generated a lot of interference, let alone the fact that they have a lock-jaw and can chomp your finger off. Worst of all when the phone rings, both they and the poisonous spiders chase you around.

89 acelightning 02.15.08 at 10:00 am

I remember, not too long ago, there was a commercial for a credit card where a man was in a pet store with a little boy, and he bought the boy a bunny. When he tried to pay with his credit card, the store owner kept trying to phone the credit card company to get the transaction authorized. The process dragged on and on, and the bunny began to multiply. Soon there were dozens of bunnies all over the counter, in the cage with the original bunny – bunnies everywhere. The phone rang, and the owner picked up a bunny and answered. Ever since then, I’ve wanted a bunny phone…

90 spiffy 02.15.08 at 11:30 am

i love how all the animals (except that happy bully-dog)look so confused. especially the guinea pig.

91 Barbarella 02.15.08 at 4:34 pm

Uhm, err…. that is just bizarre. :o

92 Barbarella 02.15.08 at 4:35 pm

Uhm, err…. that is just bizarre. :o

93 Lizzy 02.15.08 at 4:45 pm

… Wait, wouldn’t you get a lot of fuzz with those phones?

*ducks tomato and pudding bombs*

I HAD TO!

94 Emmerly 02.15.08 at 6:31 pm

AAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

That made me irrationally, exuberantly HAPPY

95 Sharon Wilson 02.15.08 at 6:38 pm

That has to be the most redonk CO video EVAR! Even better than “300 Kitties” and the bear that came for Thanksgiving, and that’s saying a lot!

96 Django 02.15.08 at 9:57 pm

I liked this movie alot. My only concern is that I feel bad for the animals here. Also, I don’t get what happened to Scott? Did the whale eat him?

97 marina t. 02.16.08 at 12:08 am

OMG!! I want a cat phone ’cause it’ll always be on vibrate. P.S. Juno “earwig phone” *snort* hahahahaha!I loved Night Gallery!

98 Too Late 02.16.08 at 1:57 am

Arielle & Sprock: HAHAHAAHA*snort!

99 Kimski 02.16.08 at 9:36 am

Maybe nobody had Scott’s number, because since he got the whale phone, he doesn’t want anyone to ring him.
*raises eyebrow*
do ya think?

100 Nancy 02.16.08 at 4:33 pm

So what the hayell kinda cell phone does Patches use?? Watchin’ all these videos on caterday mornin’ is a might bit confusin…

101 Colleen 02.16.08 at 9:35 pm

I watch this several times a day!!!!!! Is that sad? I am getting such a kick out of it!

102 Alex H. 03.01.08 at 1:43 pm

OK, although this is cute, NEVER HOLD A GUINEA PIG LIKE THAT. And that killer whale bit reminded me of a video where this guy was in this paddle-type boat and then this killer whale came up from the deep and the boat was on the killer whale and then it fell off and the guy on the boat wasn’t hurt. Pretty sweet.

103 Christiane 03.08.08 at 2:33 pm

Do they have a PANDA phone?
