Andrew Y. found a dog that can sing along, provided you change the lyrics a little.

I saw the sheep video yesterday! I love the last one out hopping through the door. And I truly appreciate this punny person from the article: โ50 runaway sheep ram-paged through a German supermarket in rural Baa-varia, causing shear mania on Monday morning,โ it posted on X. โAfter breaking away from their 500-strong herd, the brazen sheep spent 20mins milling around in the Penny supermarket before ewe-turning and seeing themselves out.โ ๐
It’s incredible to me that someone would have the courage to actually crawled under the house with the bear present to scare it out but I’m very glad that the poor man finally has his house back.
Of course the dog only sings the parts that are in sensible dog speak and lets the girl sing the other gibberish parts LOL!!
Love all these stories so much. At least the sheep didn’t break into the liquor and pass out in the bathroom.
Peeps, I could use your good wishes today. Mobile vet is coming to see Fred Weasleycat today and I may need to make tough decisions.

This is terrible ๐ Hugs to you and the all of them kitties, Debg
Sending good wishes and purrs.
Ugh, hugs DEBG
So sorry to hear. Hugs and puppy kisses from SoCal.
Sending very best wishes and healing, hopeful puppy kisses from Bibi and me.
Weโre here for and with you, Deb.
I’m sorry that this is a hard day.
We’re with you and we understand how difficult these decisions can be.
Sending hugs and purrs from Nikolai and Ekaterina, this is a very tough time.
I’m so sorry that you’re facing this. Best wishes for you and Fred. ๐
On related news, I did not expect sheep to be an emerging film genre. Unlike Lamb and Black Sheep, at least this has some warm moments along with the [spoiler alert]
MURDER
This was originally a book, which I tried to read and just could not get into it. It looks better as a movie. And Hugh Jackman is one of those actors that could stand in one spot reading traffic signs and I’d pay good money, lol.
I’ve constantly been amazed by British and Canadian detective shows–they can take a book series that hasn’t really grabbed me and turn it into a show I simply love.
Also I hear you on Hugh Jackman.
I’d live in an airstream if it came with Hugh Jackman.
And $30 million dollars.
Update on Fred: Not a happy camper. He burst through his cardboard castle wall like the Koolaid Man, then there was a big chase scene, and finally we got him penned in a corner so he could get three–THREE–shots of sedatives. It took forever to get him sedated enough for the exam.
We’ll know more by the end of the week when all the labs come back. Fred will live in the bathroom until then, so we don’t have to chase him all over the condo.
Thanks, everybody, for your support. It means the world.
Thanks for the update DebG. Poor Fred. I hope the week goes by smoothly for both of you! โค๏ธ
Fred’s a fighter! Good for him, though wearing on you. Keeping fingers crossed for you all.
