THANKFUL THURSDAY



We've always been thankful for the friendship and support ~ and absolutely, the fun and joy ~
found in being part of the community of pet friends made through our years of
being here at Zoolatry, and your stopping by to visit with us.
And we're especially thankful when you allow us to drift away, to shout out loud, 
meow out loud about "other stuff" which we seem to do more often these days.  
Yet hopefully, not losing sight of all that really matters.
Reaching out to each other, caring, sharing.  Kindness matters.
Now, more than ever.  Today, thank you for your kindness.

Any ~ all ~ are welcome to copy, paste, download 
this "keeping our paws together" badge ~ if you'd like to do so.
And feel free to use in any way you wish, no credit required,
thank you.

APRIL 30, 2025 ~ Are We Having Fun Yet ?

 


"I run the Country and the World."
... so said the man who would be king in a recent interview in The Atlantic.
and shortly thereafter, "and I'm having fun."

After just 100 days, with 1,360 left to go,
are we ~ are you ~ having fun yet?

Though never a believer in the accuracy of polling, the most recent polls
even from conservative pollsters (including Fox News) show that
48% disapprove of his job performance and if given a 
"report card" 45% would grade him with an F
and another 7% would give him a D.
But, he's having fun ...

Fun! Fun destroying thousands of lives and institutions that have made
this country great for nearly 250 years.  Supported by acolytes, aides
and the most unqualified, self serving cabinet ever,
an impotent Senate and House, plus
 too many who care not about the future of this nation and all it holds dear.  
Over these 100 days, those who have paid attention
have seen attacks on education, health, climate, our military,
our shared history ~ human and civil rights ~ the judiciary,
science, the arts.  
"Six degrees of separation", do we not all trace
our roots back to another time and place, the method, the manner
of the immigration issue is inhumane in every way possible.

100 days.
1360 day to go.

LET'S HAVE A HAPPY DAY!


I am sitting under a chair.
Mine Mommy is sitting in the chair that I am sitting under.
It is still very early in the morning.  It is dark outside.
Like 4:30 a.m. dark with the street lamps still on.
Mine Mommy is still sipping on her coffee.  
She is also reading some news on her cell phone.
I've already had my breakfast.  
And she already put fresh water in my bowl.
I always sit by my bowl after my breakfast.  
It reminds her (she's forgetful, you know) to put fresh, cold water
from the refrigerator in it because that's what I like the best.
I will stay sitting under the chair for awhile longer.
Maybe until the sun starts to rise.
Then I'll sit in my rounder by the window and watch the city wake-up.
Mine Mommy will have finished her second cup of coffee by then 
and she will probably turn her computer on and start the day.
This is our morning routine.

Oh, I almost forgot.
When I am sitting under the chair,
like this,
and meow and look up at her,
like this,
she pats me on the head and says,
"Good Morning, sweet June, lets have a happy day!"

ABUNDANCE of AWWWS

"ABUNDO"

Doesn't that word tickle your tongue?  
Isn't it fun to say?
ABUNDO!  

And doesn't it, in a word complete the picture?
 The abundance of Xander's full, furred and overflowing ears!

Abundance, derived from the Latin verbs, 
"abundantia", fullness, plenty, and also
"abundo", to overflow.

I am blessed with four wonderful grand pups, and always
awesome when I receive photos of them ...
there are two Samoyeds, Chewy and Fiona, 
the chocolate Lab, Dougie Dog, all the big kids on the block.
And here today, the not-so-big one, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Xander.

CATURDAY ART ~ and ~ SATURDAY'S CRITTERS

 


Apologies for re-posting art from 2022 ~ mine Mommy has had a busy week 
(so she says!) and did not design new art.  
She also said as I'm the "star of Zoolatry" it's okay to share this again!

And we will add to the wonderful images displayed over at
the creative blog of Athena Cat Goddess Wise Kitty and Marie.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

We are also joining the wonderful (and somewhat new to us) blog hop
sponsored by Viewing Nature with Eileen.

For all pet and animal lovers, if it is not familiar to you,
please consider visiting.

Again, our image is not new, originally posted spring 2023.
Heading up the steps to Mount Vernon Place park next to where we live.
Though "not new" this is what happens each and every time
one walks those steps ~ up or down.
