That look means business, Andrew Y.
Mighty fine links!!!! Happy Friday, everyone.
Malinoises (malinoieese? or is it like deer?) are such beautiful animals. They look so dignified, and only marginally less so when upside down with birds on their heads.
Have you found your shirt BFB?
Feeling schadenfreudeish towards hangovers. ?
That shirt is MIA. I even checked the utility closet.
Oddly, I didn’t have a hangover. At all. I have no explanation. I don’t ever get headaches from booze, but I should have at least been nauseous.
If I had a cat, I’d be buying the cat bed, that is too cute!!! And all the other links are fabulous as usual. Never knew cats could give such serious disapproval and side eye. Must be taking lessons from bunnies.
“[There was] a bit of chaos, but when you realised it was a wallaby it was really unusual.”
I like the implication that a kangaroo is just a normal occurrence, but a wallaby makes it strange…
Riley the museum volunteer is cute but I can’t watch the video right now. 🙁
There’s a local pest control company (I always see their commercials on NJ news channel 12 which I basically only watch on snow days) that has a Beagle who sniffs for bedbugs.
Doggy and his owl friends are too cute!
Hey! Who said you could post a photo of me sitting on the rocks?
I’m afraid that is pretty much how I look, short and round and often looking annoyed. ?
But less hairy LOL!!
Love the kitty with the stuffy! Yep, that was major side eye. ?
Good morning gang!
I see that Princess Fiona is on our header this morning – is today her birthday?
January 24th is her birthday.

That cat is smart to protect her teddy bear. I’m that way with my bear too.
Love the dog with owls – happy there were so many images. Beautiful photography.
and the “dog-scent” remark – very funny, Mike!
Great bunch of links.
Those dog & owl pics are perfectly sized for my computer desktop background. Just sayin’.
Also, doggie in rainboots carrying the “sun” in a bag makes me happy.
The dog/owl photos deserve to be in a coffee table book, in calendars and on greetings cards. I especially like the outrageously fluffy bloomers worn by the huge white owl!
Sophie could work as a bug sniffing dog. She finds bugs of all kinds, and then eats them. Flies, spiders, and moths are some I’ve seen her eat.
