I read the thread about puppies this morning, and for all of you who are feeling anxious, I can highly recommend this video by John Green:

Stay strong. We’ll get through this… together!

  Thank you.
  
  Here’s the link to the article he mentions:

  N. Fritz, thank you. I know I’ve been saying some of the same things myself, but it’s enormously helpful to me to hear it said by someone else.
  
  Allein, thanks for adding the links, I’m going to check those out right after I take my dog training webinar. (I took one the other day, to get tools to deal with Bibi’s alert barking, and it was super helpful – and another way to see other people’s faces and hear their voices, so also emotionally helpful).

    Here’s a pretty good infographic for those who like pix (it’s from WHO):

      Thanks 🙂
      
      I looked through some of the comments on the video and two things I liked:
      
      “Your now is not your forever.”
      
      Someone said they call it “distant socializing” instead of “social distancing”; “physical distancing” is also a better description that I’ve heard. Makes it sound not so lonely.

        I hope you are feeling better today Allein? I thought about you overnight – crazy huh supposedly don’t even “know” you – but I feel like you are a friend.
        “Your now is not forever” is so much better than my “this too shall pass”…Which I rarely express because it sounds so much like NOTHING MATTERS!!
        Have a hopeful and positive day Allein. 💕

        I’m doing okay today, thanks. 🙂 Busy cleaning out old files and stuff because our servers are running out of space.
        
        Saw this on facebook and no cute animals but it’s hilarious.

Baby pumas chirp…who knew?

Fiona! 🎶Raindrops keep fallin’ on my head..!🎶

  Fiona is a role model for us all. She is simply the most joyous hippo in the world.

  I went with Singing in the Rain myself. What a joy she is.

‘k, I’ve seen the naptime puppies before but I really want to know how long it takes to get them all tucked in..

  I clicked on the next story on that one and it’s a puppy getting a haircut!

    Thanks. That was something quite pleasant I wasn’t expecting.
Ricky & Bibi's Mom March 25, 2020 / 9:45 am

I’m so happy Lt. Dan won this year’s contest!
AJ March 25, 2020 / 11:07 am

Great links. I think people really need to take any stray kittens they find straight to vets for a DNA test as the last two have had people adopting “kittens” that turned out to be something else. And cat-dog Nacho proves he truly a cat by being such a jerk. And I’m so thrilled for Lt. Dan being the new Cadbury bunny.
- Debg March 25, 2020 / 9:52 pm
  
  I guessed Nacho would be a marmie before I read the story. Yep. Marmitude always comes out in the end.

Wonderful links today. I’m tempted to get another bird, not check its DNA, and call it Fluffy or something.
The Christmas lights are definitely helping. I’m in such a not-down mood that I think I’ll eat lunch on my deck.

  Well, that escalated quickly.
  
  Can’t believe that puma jaguarundi hasn’t killt anybody yet. Its cuteness is lethal.
  - murkle46 March 26, 2020 / 1:15 am
    
    As far as cute goes,that is definitely what it is,in spades!
