*golf clap* This is an EPIC round up of links and just in the nick of time. What a balm against all the unbelievable shenanigans and negativity this week. I’m sharing these like my life depended on it!
The corgi hug was especially epic! Even “I” feel better after he nudged his way onto the little girl’s lap! Thanks NTMTOM and sender-inner Murray C.!
I believe that what you witnessed at the end there was nuanced and short-legged version of a “phlumph”.
I love the elephant’s stylish leggings!
Me, too!
I am baffled as to how they put the leggings on the elephant since it looks like the legs are attached to the sweater.
Hmm, I hadn’t noticed that. Perhaps a set of really big garters?
I would probably try this: get the elephant to step into both legs on one side, throw the blanket over the top to the other side, then have her step into the other two legs…?
I did some checking, and it looks like the two sets of leggings are separate, and the top and tummy section are are separate. They’re put on the elephant (or the elephant is put into them), and then everything is sewn together.
I could really use a doggie hug right about now.
I was late for work because Stars came in to snuggle with me (read: lay on my arm and nuzzle her head against my cheek) right about when I should have been getting up.
Mine was considerate enough to come in and wake me up half an hour before my alarm went off, so I’d have plenty of time to adore her before I had to get up. 😛
My parents come home today. As much as I want to be back in my own bed, I’ll admit I’m gonna miss the morning cuddles.
Love love love the doggy mama, what a show of trust and love she showed to the lady who fosters her by bringing her precious pups to her. And the little girl being consoled by her dog? I’ve been in her shoes often as a child.
If people showed a tenth of the same kind of devotion and love dogs do, the world would be a much better place.
Agree with everything you said!
And, I could really use an armful of puppies or a corgi hug myself. 🙂
ZooCute tweetoffs need to be a daily thing. Love love love these links. Sending positive thoughts to the little baby hippo.
I think weekly so it’s a real treat!
The hipplet is wonderful. I love its cow eyes and shrek ears.
Me too! Those ears are so adorable. It must be stressful for mama hippo and the zookeepers having the baby born so early. I hope she pulls through!
Such a good corgi :3
