    Now we need a leafy playdate with baby musk ox and Stella and that cat from last week…

    Tangle! Good luck, baby. I love stories where people help critters, especially wild ones.

    Cannot wait to meet the baby musk ox. They have the most expensive spinnable fiber ever, way more than cashmere.

      Are you a Tangle reader, too? (I’m more of a skimmer most days, really. But I like the “Have a nice day” section.)

        I am not but might become one. That owl is simply lovely.

          The newsletter is news/politics; this was just something nice they shared yesterday.

          That was a straight โ€œIโ€™m outta here suckers!โ€ if I ever saw one!

    Sci-show is one of my favorite edutainment channels on YouTube. I can never know enough facts about kitties.

    • allein ๐Ÿพ November 16, 2023 / 10:53 am

      Sci-show, PBS Eons, and PBS Terra (a recent find) are my main sciency channels right now. I also like Joe Scott (Answers with Joe); he does a lot of science but also history stuff, too.

        Well, just spent an hour googling all the channels you listed and watching stuff๐Ÿ™„ Thank you!! ๐Ÿ˜
        I LOVE science!!

          If you’re into podcasts, PBS Eons had one called Eons: Mysteries of Deep Time. They don’t seem to be doing it anymore but the existing episodes are probably still available.

    I can attest that cats love tuna.

    When I try to eat it I basically have to do it in a closet otherwise I’m practically mugged.

      Maybe the tuna thing is why rabbits like banana??๐Ÿค” Inquiring mindsโ€ฆ

    We found out last week that, in our town, Tim Hortons smile cookie proceeds this fall are being shared with https://www.elizabethswildlife.ca

    I know and love this woman!

      That is so cool! Giving Tuesday is right around the corner.

        Kind of have the Purple Leash and other groups penciled in for myself.

        Horrifying statistic that 50% of domestic violence victims stay because of their pets. 70% have had their pet threatened/hurt/killed by their abuser.

    Baby musk ox was even cuter than I imagined. Zoomies are adorable no matter what the species. Unless maybe when an apex predator is zooming toward you!

    Willow! I really need to go see her- I even have a half-off coupon for the zoo. (I live about 45 min away from Point Defiance). Just waiting for a day off when it’s not raining…

    Also, I was at a continuing education event recently where one of the presenters, who lives in another state, asked if Washington State has any fall color, since it’s the “Evergreen State.” I helpfully pointed out that the maple tree outside the window RIGHT BEHIND HIM had some lovely fall color, lol! Yes, we do have deciduous trees, too.

    What is it about a pile of leaves ?

    • 6rabbits November 16, 2023 / 3:56 pm

      I know! Science, explain!

    Other cats may love tuna but mine won’t touch it. Now chicken or turkey, she goes nuts.

    • DEBG November 16, 2023 / 6:04 pm

      Cats are weird and that’s why we love them.
