The white spots on the “kitten” ears are a dead giveaway.
“Funny growling noises?” Giant paws and claws? I guess the rescuers were not familiar with actual kittens.
Lovely man in Honolulu dedicated to taking care of street cats. The story of GG and the goats is like a novel.
Mr. Stuffy will be disemboweled right after the big hugs.
Can’t actually see the story on the bobkitten, unfortunately–just a video about bobcats in general. Other linkies have to wait. I’m really looking forward to them all.
Love the whooping crane story! I hope the little one and its adoptive parents are very happy together.
Fantastic giant tortoise would be a great band name.
GG and the goats–a novel indeed. Would be a fantastic movie or kids’ book!
Ack, too much cuteness too early in the day. Love all the stories. And what’s with people finding baby bobcats around their house? This is the second one I’ve read in the last few days. The other one was in NH

Is someone playing “The Circle of Life?”
That man in Hawaii is my new hero. I love everything he does for those street cats.
