      TILT! The laws of physics do not allow a sweeter story.

        I saw this story. Absolutely amazingly sweet.

      Very wonderful. I’m also chuffed for the blind kitten who found people to love her.

    So of course Maru the Cat’s opposite number is Maru the Shiba, and this one does not care for empty container one bit.

    If I dye my hair blonde, may I join the annual Goldie Conference?
    Oh well, I wouldn’t look any good with blond hair, so I am waiting for a similar event, this time for choco labradors 🙂

    I love hero dog* statues. I especially love that they included Frida’s gear!

    * all dogs are heroes

    I drunk-kickstarted a project last night that’s making D&D miniatures of adventurer dogs. There’s a wizard goldie with grimoirs strapped to his side and a chihuahua rogue with a knife in his teeth. Turns out backers also get fluff material and character making guides with example doggie personality traits. One of them is compulsively…marking territory. I’m going to have so much fun, and its’s going to drive the dungeon master *nuts.*

    Brooklyn’s Make-a-Wish had me tearing up.

      Yeah, that’s one awesome kid.

    I can’t believe no one commented on this: “The breed was created at Tomich near Glen Affric in the 1800s by landowner Dudley Marjoribanks, also known as Lord Tweedmouth.”

    It totally sounds like a name Mike would come up with!

      Now I’ll be waiting for that to show up in a post.
