Any excuse to post the stomping porcupettes…
(how does google not know that porcupette is a word?)
Adding synchronized doggies to my ‘relaxation videos’ folder…
Winnie and her kittens are too cute.
Winnie is the goodest girl…
“I asked this little ICU patient if he would like a therapy dog visit. He wouldn’t make eye contact with me and whispered, ‘What’s she for?’ ‘She’s here to make you feel better,’ I told him. He set aside his ninja turtle doll and Winnie immediately cuddled up in his arms. After several minutes of silence, he looked at me and said, ‘She works, can I keep her?'”
Porcupette’s dad’s name is Quillbur and their brother’s name is Quilliam!!!!!
💗💗💗
I will never not love their pohawks.
Winnie–an angel. She’s the bestest mom.
So looking forward to the linkies today! Only had time for the hipnotic puppies, who killt me.
Love the labrabutts. In awe of the yellow majesty.
Oh are they labradors? Unfortunately I don’t have such skills, I can recognize dog breeds only from the other end 🙁
They have distinctive heinies and white buttfringe. And otter tails.
I can’t stop watching the synchronized wiggly doggies 😳😳😳
I like big butts and I cannot lie – talk about being in perfect step with each other. Such a great set of links today – Winnie! Dunkin & Token – BFF’s forever! Shoulder riding kitties! (And hubba, hubba, kitty dad is easy on the eyes too). And who know pocupettes could be soo cute. Typical Jersey boird – won’t talk to the law.
Mom and porcupette – ridiculously cute. I could watch Winnie snd her foster kittens all day. I love when they groom her. I’ve never seen foster kittens react that way to another species friend. Maybe they really do believe she’s their mother. Dunkin and Token – I got all misty-eyed.
Dunkin and Token—hey, who’s cutting onions around here?
More porcupette goodness:
Bebeh’s name is Fofo!
As always, the links made my day! Love the little porcupette and now I want a prehensile tail as well as a trunk.
Token and Dunkin–words fail. I especially loved Mom’s “Oh, Dunkin” when he tipped over the wheelbarrow. Of course these two bonded over food.
Shoulder kitties have the right idea. If I had a man like that in my life, I’d ride on his shoulders all the time.
