The tale of Casey told by Allison

One evening our neighbor called us over because she heard a strange sound near one of the sheds. It sounded like a meow. As it turned out, it WAS a meow!

An adorable little gray tabby barn kitten had fallen through a hole in the attic and was trapped inside the wall!

Sunday Pause (Paws)

All this “President” talk, how about a “Kid President?!” There is a kid who made a list of “Awesome Things to be Thankful For.” He talks about how we all have things to be thankful for if we take the time to look around to see them. For some reason, we the human race, like to focus on the negative. I think we can learn something from this kid.

Some things I am thankful for are: my family, my friends, the beautiful seasons of Spring, Summer, Fall, & Winter, the I Love Lucy tv show, Starbucks Chai Latte-YUM!, animals-ALL ANIMALS, GOD, shelter, Chicken in a Biscuit crackers, Continue reading

Beautiful Flames

via Daily Prompt: Flames

With fall coming to an end, it will soon be time for the “S” word. I am not a huge fan of winter, but one thing I really enjoy is sitting by a fire and listening to the crackling of the wood burning. There is also something so mesmerizing about those flames.

Be Kind

I didn’t plan on doing a post today, but with all of the negativity going on in the United States right now over the election, I thought this picture I found on Facebook had a great message.

Not all of us agree on who should or shouldn’t be President, but please remember to still be kind. We are all entitled to our own opinions, that is what makes us “individuals.” Don’t follow the crowd, think for yourself, and be kind!

The Tale of Tank Told by Allisha

I was on the internet searching for pitbull puppies when I came across an ad about some for sale in Iowa MN. I called to see if they were still available and they were. So, one weekend we drove down to Iowa to go look at them and once we got there I fell in love with all 4 puppies that they had.

My boyfriend picked out the puppy that he wanted and I got to choose the puppy that I wanted, so in the end we came home with 2 puppies! One we named Duke and one we named Tank.

We had both of them for a couple of months and then…

Routine Exams-Ugh!

Those routine annual exams, none of us are particularly fond of them, but they are important!

I just had a bit of a scare being called back in for a recheck after a routine annual exam. Because of this, I asked others for prayer, prayed myself, and kept myself busy until the appointment. Our pets are not to fond of these annual exams either, but at least they do not know they are going until you take them. They don’t have to spend that “waiting” time. Waiting for the appointment day, waiting to be called in, and waiting for the results.

Do Dogs Have Feelings?

I came across an article called “Do Dogs Have Feelings?” by Michael Arbeiter. My answer before reading it is, YES, all animals do!

This article mentions that dogs feelings (or emotions) can be things like fear, aggression, and panic. These feelings/emotions can cause behavior problems. There is also joy in animals.

“If I act very, silly, that’ll produce a joy that is greater in a dog than just wagging their tail. When you’re acting goofier-maybe you’re running around in the yard or you’re playing fetch-there’s a higher level of happiness.”

Tuesday Tale-What is Your Pet’s Tale?

So far I have done Tuesday Tales about animals I find on the web, about my cat Cino, and about people I know and their pet stories. NOW I WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!

share-your-storyRAREDaily

A lot of you have your own blog about your pet, so I understand you are already telling the story of your pet. But by sharing it with me, you may gain some new exposure and, quite frankly, you would really be helping me out. A lot of bloggers view posts, but do not necessarily participate, perhaps because your own blog is keeping you busy. Or maybe you’re thinking somebody else will participate so you are not needed. You are needed!! I love hearing about your stories too! It’s important for bloggers to connect and animal lovers!

I am not asking for a lot of your time, you don’t have to share much. You could share just one paragraph that sums up the story of your pet. But if you prefer, it can be longer than a paragraph. Share as much or as little as you would like. It would be great to have a picture of them to go along with the paragraph too.

What I will do is include the paragraph and photo you send me in one of my Tuesday Tales along with others. I will include a link back to your blog as well.

Sunday Pause (Paws)

Fall is a beautiful time of year, but it can bring many rainy days.

But, hey, it’s Sunday! Time to kick back & relax. We can especially do that on a rainy day. I don’t know about you, but I really enjoy watching the rain through a window. I find it very relaxing, especially with a blanket and a hot cup of tea.

Or maybe you want to go out and play in the rain. (maybe take your pet out with you, although my guess is most pets aren’t to keen on going out in the rain)

Whatever you do enjoy your day!

What is the weather like today where you are? Is it raining by chance? It is suppose to be 49 degrees for a high today and cloudy where I am. It did rain almost all day yesterday.

Note: I am going to be doing a little bit different Tuesday Tale this week. I will be asking for your stories. Please come back and check out the post this Tuesday and PLEASE plan to share a little bit with me about your pet (past or current).
