Sunday Pause (Paws)

7 Replies

Here we are again…it’s Sunday!

Winter has arrived where I live. The weather has been strange though. We have had warmer than normal temperatures and a lot of rain. If it weren’t for these warmer temperatures, that rain would have been snow, a lot of snow!

We actually have gotten some snow, but it has all melted away. Much colder temps are expected for next week, so I’m sure the snow will be here to stay soon and for MANY months.

Whether you enjoy winter or not, I think you will still enjoy watching the animals in the video below loving it!

The tale of Cuddles told by Amy

Amy and I discussed her sharing a tale about one of her cats. Since she had written a post about one of them recently, we decided I would just share her story by reblogging it here on my blog. This is a great post that includes pictures and a video. Love it!

Thank you Amy for sharing your story with me. I am SO happy Cuddles ran out of the barn that day for you guys to find. I wonder why he became aggressive after being so cuddly?

I also believe in brushing our pet’s teeth, so I would love to hear what kind of tool you use to get the tartar off of his teeth!

This tale was shared by Amy, a fellow blogger who participated in “Tuesday Tale-What Is Your Pet’s Tale?”. If you would like to participate, click the “Tuesday Tales” tab on my blog for details.

(The tale of Cuddles is also posted on the “November Tuesday Tale” page)

This video of Cuddles is something that happens every day.  You can hear from my voice a bit of exasperation because just as I have completely cleaned up in the kitchen for the morning (every morning), in walks Cuddles for more food.  *sigh*  And yes I know I recently posted a video of Cuddles and Rusty playing.  What can I tell you?  I have no control of what is going to happen especially with these cats.  At least in this video you will see another side to Cuds Cuds.  I do have several more videos that I plan on posting of other cats that live in this house too.  (smile)

Cuddles is persistent and consistent if nothing else.  When he wants to eat, nothing is going to get him to stop to do whatever it takes to get me to feed him.  He is a 12-year old male rescued barn…

This is Cino checking out the tree right after I finished putting it up. She gets so excited when the tree goes up.

I used my cell phone for the picture above and I am not one of those people who has a great cell phone. I have a very basic one, which I got, believe it or not, to make phone calls with. This photo probably would have turned out a lot better with one of those great new phone cameras. But for having an average phone camera, I must say I do like the dark, shadowy look with the lights glowing softly.

For this Sunday Pause (Paws), I invite you to sit back, relax, and check out the other photos of Cino on “My Sweet Cino” page and read a little story about us. There is a link on the photos page of how Cino & I met, if you haven’t already read it. (It was one of my earlier posts when I first started seriously blogging a few months ago so I don’t think many people saw it).

Happy Sunday!

Pets Outside in the Cold-What Do We Do?

I received a phone call this morning from someone who is concerned about a neighbor dog and they were looking for advice. The dog seems to be put outside whenever they are home and then brought inside whenever they leave. When the dog is outside it is put inside of a little fenced in square they have in the yard.

The concern isn’t so much about that, even though in my opinion, I don’t feel people should have a dog unless they are actually going to pay attention to it. It’s more about the nonstop barking for one. Although ignoring your pet is going to cause barking and other behavior issues (and who’s fault is this?…not the dog’s. Just saying). The other concern is, it just turned very cold here, and the dog is being left in the cold for hours at a time. This dog has no doghouse to go into and there are no leaves on trees anymore to block the brutal winds. Continue reading →

Hoping to Make an Impact

8 Replies

I have been blogging (well…serious blogging) for a few months now. I have played around with my blog, changing & adding things like the “Tuesday Tales” where I share animal stories and “Sunday Pause (Paws)” where I encourage everyone to kick back & relax. On my “Vegetarian Challenge” page I try to add recipes every now & then. There hasn’t been an actual challenge yet, but maybe in the future. Also, I have been adding my favorite cruelty free products to the “Links” page, adding some pictures of my cat, Cino and “Pet Care Tips.”

I will continue to add to these pages and keep a variety on my blog. But one thing that will not change is where my heart is, and that is helping the fight against animal cruelty.

This means some of my posts will not be so uplifting or fun. If I were to only do “happy” posts I wouldn’t be spreading the word about animal cruelty and therefore I wouldn’t be helping animals.

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!

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!
