    I want to pet a stoat.

    Don’t worry, birdie, you’re much prettier than that duck.

    omg, ded.

      Now ded too. Kittens, man–they’re spectacularly lethal.

    When my old kitties decide to take the rainbow bridge I would love to adopt a bonded pair like Flora and Reuben.

    My two cats like each other and they still play and chase one another once in a while but they have never cuddled or slept together. They both prefer cuddling with us humans, not that I’m complaining you understand.

      I was just thinking about special needs kitties too! Flora and Reuben are so handsome and very sweet together.

      My brood of 6 includes cat-oriented kitties and human-oriented cuddlers. Our cuddle puddles are quite something! Scorpius is the only holdout right now.

    I love the bird dispatching its rival.

    That’s what we call “flipping the bird.”

    I love that Texans are looking after the new borns out in the cold. Just not sure they need to be in the living room next to the fireplace! But what the heck…why not!? 🤣

    Love the stoat girls and the hoomin who helped them.

    Finally got to see Lucky on the job . . . or not–what a gorgeous doggie!

    So good of people to rescue sea turtles and other outdoor critters.
