No, I’m NOT an ordinary cat, and I don’t poo in a box!
I really admire you !!!! Someday I’ll learn how to use the porta potty too !!
says Smiles, who got his name, cuz he always does !!
And YOU thought stare downs were the domain of cats !
Wanda !!! Been digging in the mud again, I see.
It sure is a wet day.
Remember meeting our Wild Friend a few days ago? He’s still here. Hanging out as the only goose with Patrick and Preston the pig. He seems perfectly healthy. Occasionally we have had one stop in and stay a while. Though they usually visit in groups or pairs.
I’m going back to bed, call me when the sun shines.
The 200 cases of cat food have arrived. And now I’ve got to pay for them. Just need a little bit more help and we’ll be there !!! Thank you so much!!
Now we know we’re fed for a few days !!! A case doesn’t go far when you have almost 600 to feed !!!
YES, we have our very own Platter Puss !!
No, these don’t live here.
Yes! They really exist ! Aren’t they beautiful !!! I wish they adorned our trees here !
Technicolor 3 foot long 4 pound giant squirrels. Yes this is the real coloring of this Malabar giant squirrel !! They live in India. They feed on tropical fruits in the tree canopy. And can jump 20 feet between trees. They create food stores in treetops high above the forest floor instead of underground like other squirrels.
You can verify their reality and/or learn more about them here if you wish.
