I take one little nap and suddenly I'm on sale.

And finally: It’s a Stampede!

Feliz cumpleaños, Fiona!
I love Ponyo and his dragon.
Five already!?!!?!?!? Hard to believe, portly princess!
Love the cat stampede so much. Have to save everything else for later.
Her actual birthday is January 24, 2017.
I swear at a couple points there were at least 3-4 cats going through that door at once.
Feline extruder!
Everybody needs a feline extruder. They’re so handy.
FKA 🤣😸😂!
I loved Fiona’s baby pics, Ponyo snd his dragon stuffie, and Milo and her kitten puppies!
I hate to be a party pooper, but the article says Fiona is three.
Other than that, let’s celebrate all these links!
Maybe she’s five in human years…?
That kitty stampede was intense. 😻
Okay, I didn’t really read the article, just looked at the Fifty Fotos of Fiona. But I just looked again and the article is from Jan 23, 2020; she was born January 24, 2017, so she is five this year.
Memo to me: check dates before commenting.
🙄
Sorry.
😛🦛
Thanks, I was very confused about that, too!
Fiona doesn’t look a day older than 3 anyway!
Not sure she can already count to 5 either, which reminds me of “The Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch”
Please don’t have videos that autoplay (for those of us with data limits), or at least please don’t autoplay with audio (when we hear some unusual noise and are trying to figure out where it’s coming from to silence it).
I keep the site muted in Chrome at work just in fear of something autoplaying with sound!
Kitty stampede was like watching a clown car exit in reverse. Wow, Fiona is already 5??!! And she wasn’t even expected to survive the first month. Got very dusty in her watching Milo and her “puppies”. Guess I’ll have to check all the furniture before we do our move and make sure there’s no stowaways.
Fiona–still so precious, after all these years. I love that the whole city makes a fuss for her birthday.
Kitten with dragon made my brain asplode.
And did you notice the vets did the same “operation” on the dragon so they’d have matching scars? This is the photo that made my brain go poof!
Yes, I was dying! So very sweet and adorable.
In rewatching the kitty stampede, I think I saw the one tree at the very left edge of the screen start thrashing about when the lady called the cats. No other trees moved, and I’m wondering if there were cats in the tree.
Maybe they created a localized breeze…
Ha ha probably Allein!
Goodbye Betty. Rest in Peace.
And goodbye Desmond Tutu. Also rest in peace. (I like to mention him because he’s just as important as Betty right?)
I love Fiona at 5. 💕
Mama doggo with her baby kitties. So sweet.
And the cat stampede! Crazy fun!! But why don’t they just open the door? I guess because FKA nailed it… extruded cats are amazing!
Milo and her kittens! The cat in the chair! True story: a friend of mine moved a few years ago, and several times nearly gave away one of her cats in charity boxes. He kept jumping in when her cat was turned. He nearly made it out of the house the first time, until my friend thought, “This box seems heavier than it should be” and peeked inside. She now knows to look every time she’s packing up stuff to give away.
Betty White was just amazing–we didn’t deserve her but I’m so glad we got her. In the absolutely lovely documentary about her on Netflix, she has this wonderful encounter with a big brown bear. Bear was in a zoo and the staff would let Betty in to feed him peanuts.
I have that Betty White doc on my Netflix list (put it there weeks ago…). Maybe I’ll watch it this weekend.
Oh shoot–hope I didn’t spoil it with the bear story!
Nah, I’m not someone who cares much about spoilers. I often read discussion boards and sometimes even recaps about TV episodes I haven’t watched yet.
In this case it just gives me something to look forward to. 🐻
Whoa… that was a lot of kitties.
