Betty White Challenge is ON today. This challenge was designed in honor of her 100th birthday. For those of you who care about the hopeless animals in shelters please donate $5.00 to your favorite animal charity. Many are matching your donation.

My favorites among others are:

Marty’s Place for senior dogs without homes:
https://martysplace.org


Tabby’s Place for ill cats. Saving Cats from Hopeless Situations.

Done.

We lost two pets during Covid. One to very old age and one mid age.

Vet was great both times

The last three cats we’ve had all came as unwanted, homeless, rescued, etc, If you have a choice look for the animals that are hand raised, they are more bonded to humans. During holidays the city was offering pets fully vaccinated, spayed, neutered and microchipped for 10 bucks, what a deal.

We give directly to the foster mothers that work with the shelter that is trying very hard to remain no kill. The foster mom we know has rescued over a thousand animals in the last 5 years, not a misprint. We had to euthanize our cat of 18 years before thanksgiving but she came to us as twice rescued and at least 5 years old then. She lived to be over 20 plus

The one pictured here we’ve had about a month. He lost his mother at 3 weeks of age and had to be hand fed around the clock, even then the mortality rate is high among them. He made it has no worries now. 😀

The two above magazines give VW content here. The Hemmings does this German car issue now seems to be every year. Then there’s VW trends.

You little grey kitty reminds me of our Licorice. She showed up as a stray in a 7th grader's backpack. Wonderful kitty but a coyote got her. Give yours a hug for us.

Maybe I should get a mature cat as a companion.

My sis and bil rescued a couple feral sibling kittens 8 years ago. They were so tiny, you could fit each one in the palm of your hand. Those kitty's went camping in the first weekend of ownership.

The male (rascal) grew into a spectacular handsome lion. But pet him more than once, and you pay the price of being kind to him.

The female (princess) should be a comfort feline. She's an angel.
My sis cares for developly disabled folks. Princess has been held for hours and hours in the hands of one of the patients. Never squirmed out of his hands. Or even thought about hiding from him. She is that docile.

Maybe I need a cat companion!
It would be cruel to have a dog. I work too many hours a week to provide a good home to a dog. But I do love dogs.

I'll make a donation to a local animal shelter.
