And finally: A Møøse Once Bit My Traffik Köne
No realli! I saw it in a video sent by Sharon G.!
The video of Kuma the corgi wiggling his butt as he walks just about killed me!
I hope we learn that the two pups get to spend time together regularly now. Such a touching story and picture.
They should let them hang out during the day while the other owner is at work.
That’s what I thought – the guy has a built in doggie camp and it would help his dog so much!
Corgi is beyond adorable – which reminds me – my SIL was talking about getting a corgi when I was out in CA visiting and then she sent me a picture – of two – count ’em TWO Scotties, one white (doesn’t look quite the same as a westie), one black, sisters named Sigge and Frida.
How great that the woman got her cat back – ashamed the man that found it didn’t have it scanned right away but maybe he wasn’t aware of the chip concept.
Re cat’s microchip – in the comments of the Mirror article, someone writing as a volunteer with the ‘Cats Protection’ charity says that the man actually took the cat to get scanned at the vet, but the chip was slightly out of place and didn’t show up. But he kept up with Whiskey’s vet care for all those intervening years. If true, that makes me feel better – so many cats never get one good home, much less two.
Interesting. We have a cat that came to our door almost 17 years ago and I really don’t know if the vet I took her to ever checked her for a chip! I always thought that, since she was neutered, someone cared about her.I put posters out in the neighborhood but to no avail. But the vet just said, “Keep her”. So we did and I’m happy about that, but I do wonder about her first home.
My last cat had a chip, but as it wasn’t registered and had been at the humane society for a few weeks, I took her home.
If they didn’t care enough to register the chip or contact the animal shelters, then they lost out. I had a wonderful kitty for the next ten years and I adored her for every second.
To be fair, I think a lot of people don’t know that the owner has to register the chip (and update the registrations every time they move. Crap! I have to do that!) Since chipping is a relatively new technology, it’s easy to visualize some vague mega-database of all chips ever and assume they just track each cat somehow involving Clouds. If you had no prior knowledge of how the chip system worked, and the person at the shelter said “yes this cat is microchipped” then it’s easy to go “oh okay cool” and not realize that anything more is required.
I, too, am an incorrigible butt toucher. It’s why I’m an outlaw in five countries…and a hero in six.
IT”S SO FLUFFY!!!!
I’m not sure Corgi likes getting poked in the butt, though…
Maybe the moose is hoping they’re creamsicles…
Corgi’s bottom is like memory foam.
😀
I wonder how far along that moose is in his dentistry license…
I think that moose just wanted a bullhorn…
Aww he wanted to be a unicone!

Somewhere out there, a road crew is face-palming.
