    Some see this chicken’s actions as crimes. I say it’s a statement. Viva la revolucion!

    Those chickens look completely innocent to me. πŸ˜‡ I wish our dogs and cats could understand that we take them to the vet’s only because we love them, not to torment them. 😊

    Is that a puppy curling up on the back of a duck??? 😁

    And if I’d been able to take my dog to work every day I never would have retired.

    “How do you get down off an elephant?”
    “You don’t–you get down off a goose.”

    (A joke I had to have explained to me as a child.)

      It took my brain a few seconds to figure that one out.

        Me too. I was thinking ok, this joke makes absolutely no sense ad was wondering why you’d step off an elephant to the goose and then to the ground. Maybe use the goose like a stepping stool????? Then I re-read it a little slower and then the πŸ’‘ went off in my brain and was like ha, ha good one!

          No, goose-stepping is something entirely different.

          I found it quite annoying until it was explained to me. It just seemed like another useless scolding from an adult–you know how, when you’re a kid, you get in a bad spot and some adult makes it worse by saying, “Well, you shouldn’t have done that!” So I thought this joke was just another example of that, and I was thinking, “Well, that’s all well and good, and I suppose I shouldn’t get on an elephant in the first place, but telling me to get down off a goose instead won’t do me any good when I’M STUCK ON TOP OF A FREAKING ELEPHANT!”

            LOL, gotta love kid logic sometimes. And I love the ending – I’m stuck on an elephant!

              Speaking of elephants…my aunt just got home from a trip to Africa and she just posted some pics and a video of a troop of elephants…including a bebeh or two!

    So many interesting posts today. I had o idea a chicken could eat a mouse or frog whole. Loved the little mini-me cat and mother – I always wonder if cats’ tongues get tired from all that licking. And I’ll wager that duck can’t go anywhere ’til the pup gets off its back. Its legs would split like kindling!

    So glad I’m not still living in FL or those two calico girls would be at my house. Hmmm, wonder how much it’d cost to fly them to Cali?? No seriously, I would never do something like that so please no nuffing on me. I realize there are too many cats/kittens needing homes in my area.

    Other links are pretty funny, animals can be such a-holes sometimes. And that video, too much. But smart doggo, finding a comfy spot to curl up. Just hope the duck doesn’t object too much.

      Just hope he doesn’t try that in a few months…

    I want an office kitten. I only get one of those when I work from home. And that one decides to nap on my keyboard or hand, not my lap

    The chicken who insists on singing the song of his people at dawn appears to be wearing a feathery head-dress borrowed from a Moulin Rouge showgirl…

    I’m so glad Mike saw the red panda story too! I don’t know how to post pictures/articles yet.

    Heh. You know, I know, I am in the right place reading the hovertext, “Honestly, who hasn’t?”

    Instagram says the calico mother and daughter were adopted together a week ago. Yay!
