Oops. Can’t help mama. It’s lizard time for me. Well, today mama was in the garden, tidying up for the onset of spring and good weather and seedlings popping up and roses that might bloom before Bunny Day (whatever that is) and harvesting a gazillion broad beans that seemed to fill out all at once, from one day to the next! ...

How about that cockatoo? Well, thanks to mama’s niece and her partner, who sent mama’s sis-in-law this in an email, this blog is dedicated to a charming and lovely video about animals reacting to music! Mama was enchanted and I think you may be, too! Not sure about all the cattle coming at...
Read MoreLemon Appeal
You want me to help pick lemons? Can’t you see I’m BATHING? Well, yesterday mama and her helper (not me, haha) picked about a gazillion lemons from our tree, because the little flowers are appearing and they need all the nourishment for the next lemon growth, so we take away the big daddies....
Read MoreDeep Thoughts
Week-end prep… Well, it’s the old TGIF, whatever that means, but I think it means to kick back a bit and just put your paws up and relax with no appointments, no demands, no errands you have to run, just utter, spaced-out BEING here. So that’s what I’m doing. Except for the fact that...
Read MoreLion Around (A Special Blog)
WOW, what a great adventure! Well, today we have a special treat. A response from a reader, Militza (Mitzi) Bunce van Rooyen, in South Africa inspired me to ask her to tell us about her experiences with animals, as there are so many where she lives. This is her lovely story about her father: The Lion Park The best thing about the lion park...
Read MoreHaving A Ball
Well, mama is still trying to get me to exercise more often but do I look like a kitty who is going to play ball? Ha, ha, no way, Jose. And how about this full moon that sneaked up on us? Wasn’t it full just a few days ago? Is the world wacko? I’m pondering all these things as I...
Read MoreKnee Knowledge
First you roll a bit on your back, thus bringing lovely mulch into the house to share with mama and papa. Especially if they are wearing black. Well, I’m sure everyone is fascinated by this but mama’s right knee is good as gold again thanks to Dr Khelif who is very handy with a needle for this...
Read MoreRhino Remembrances
Dreaming of Krueger… Well, today I share with you a little love story. My dear auntie Lynne was working some years ago in Honolulu with a group studying animal communications, and received a coup de foudre! Later, she called a friend, exclaiming over her new love’s...
Read MorePawn Power!
That kid did WHAT? Well, today I’m sharing with you the sweetest story of a young immigrant, Tani, and his family who came to the USA to escape Bokul Haren atrocities in Nigeria. This eight-year-old will make you teary with happiness. At least it made US teary! Mama says that there are so many of...
Read MoreSpringing Forward Soon…
Well, here’s the thing. We’re very quiet around here today as mama and papa are quietly contemplating the loss of a dear friend and hoping for the approach of spring, that it’s really here and not just fooling us all. This is the anniversary, after all, of the day in March that 80...
Read MoreCleaning Up
Well, today I wish to share with you my attitude toward bathing with the utmost care and concern for the meticulous kitty toilette that ALL of us must experience daily First: lift foot toward cleaning apparatus, ie la langue. ...
Read MorePlaying Chicken
🐔🐔 This is my sleeping chicken pose. Have you ever seen a chicken sleep? Well, it’s like this. So, today we visit our fine feathered friends, sort of. But after you have seen the first talented musical Rhode Island Red pianist, SKIP for sure the following clown act and go DIRECTLY to the third contestants...
Read MoreCookies on this Site
Well, that was a stretch, right, that cookie title, but mama went bonkers today trying to replenish all the cookies she has been taking to art classes and offering to a language class she and papa go to each week, and in her family, an empty cookie tin was like an empty kibble bowl! So papa...
Read MoreTender Touches
Well, today I am sharing my unflagging affinity for snuggles and caresses. Oh, papa, the touch of your hand makes me weak! (Papa is wrapped around my little…er…finger. He walks by, I stretch out to him with my paws, show my tummy, and he is butter, melting with luv...) And a rub on the jaws from papa...
Read MoreTupper Trauma
Hey, you guys, why are your heads in the dishwasher? Well, we call all of our refrigerator storage boxes “tuppers”, even if they are not the real item, as in Tupperware. In fact, mama said she doesn’t eve know if they still make the things they used to make when anthros had Tupperware parties,...
Read MoreNew Moon, You Saw Me Standin’ Alone
Uh, oh, I think there is a sliver of something up there! Well, there is something about a tiny crescent of silver in the spring sky that just makes my heart go pity-pat. Does that happen to you? We all go out to see the new moon from the garden, NOT through the window, because that is bad...
Read MoreBad In The Broad Beans
Pretty soon, I’ll LEAP out and scare the bejeezus out of mama, haha. Yes, well, this does sound a bit like Stalking The Wild Asparagus mentioned in another blog, but hey, a good author is flattered that one “borrows” a way to help think up an interesting title. As for me, fava beans or feves, as...
Read MoreToo Bushed To Blog
Mama! Wake up and get back to where I can find your KNEES!!! Well, I’m simply out of steam right now. For some reason, I left my blog until way after my dinner and frankly, I’m just running on empty, whatever that means, and I MUST go to bed. The main reason being that if I don’t go RIGHT...
Read MoreIn Hot Water
Ahhh…to be alone is WONDERFUL!Well, they are back and full of stories about sitting in some hot water or something like that and if there is anything I do NOT ever wish to do, it is SIT IN HOT WATER! Especially salt water, which evidently was part of the fun because bodies float easily in salt water. Weird, if you ask me, which, of course, no one...
Read MoreA Baffled Blogger
I need some HELP HERE! I have no idea what has happened to my WordPress format and there doesn’t seem to be a place to add media and there is something about a Block, whatever that is, and so I’m just winging it right now and hoping there will be a PUBLISH box somewhere (haven’t found it yet!). Maybe Update now is not such a good idea...
